Robert Glen Mouritsen, a 71-year-old from Utah, is a former stake president.


A former leader of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints used his “position of prominence” to cheat friends and fellow church members out of more than half a million dollars, Utah federal prosecutors said on Wednesday.

Prosecutors charged Robert Glen Mouritsen, a 71-year-old from Kaysville, with three counts of wire fraud and three counts of money laundering, according to a federal indictment unsealed on Aug. 30.

I've always been a little skeptical about things that go on inside the Mormon church. If only Joseph Smith hadn't lost those gold tablets: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Golden_plates

I agree. And I apologize if my post offended you in any way. It was not intended to do so.

No need to apologize...I wasn't offended. Just wanted to point out that we are all individuals and not always responsible for the actions of others.
