Wow, that’s pretty ballsy! Church came out swinging I see.
There's only so far to take clergy privileges. Jmo

FOX 13 INVESTIGATES - Tonight at 5:30, we take a look at this letter sent by the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. It states leaders should not involve themselves in any court case without speaking to the Church first.
https://twitter.com/AdamHerbets/status/1293676574361837568
This letter was sent the same day a judge ruled that Chad Daybell's case would move forward to trial. Some say the policy is unethical. Some say it's sound legal advice. Others say it borders on obstruction of justice, potentially impacting cases across the country.
https://twitter.com/AdamHerbets/status/1293687170922733569
A spokesperson for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints clarified a few questions regarding the policy. My question: "Does the Church discourage (involvement) after seeking permission, or is it just kind of a – 'Hey we’re just giving you a heads up?'" Response:
https://twitter.com/AdamHerbets/status/1293687571357134850
My follow up: "Sure, but if someone is subpoenaed because they believe they might have information related to a case, are they still going to be discouraged not to get involved?" Penrod: "Uhm, I can’t speak to that... They just don’t want the Church involved."

Approximately what percentage of practicing LDS members qualify as "leaders" as laid out in the "To:" section of that letter? It goes all the way down to members of Ward and Stake Councils. Aren't leadership roles of one level or another strongly encouraged? (So this letter would be fairly all-inclusive?)https://twitter.com/AdamHerbets/status/1293676361291198464

Thanks for posting this as I saw this, but wasn't on MSM so I didn't mention.
I too thought very interesting, and wondered if this was more directed at the Arizona case vs. Rexberg case, even though the timing came out near Chad's case.
Are they thinking it might be like a catholic confession which I believe is indeed not allowed to be disclosed?
Not sure.... will look forward to their 5:30 report link.
This is straight up encouraging obstruction. The church can stick a thumb in their ear as far as I’m concerned. What an abhorrent position to take. What are they afraid of?
You can cite MSM reporters. Adam works for FOX13.
They'd never have left the parking lot to do anything like that! They're not into nature IMO. Freaked out, probably. Remember how they're not into camping and had an alternate plan for themselves at the end of time?Ya know, if they had dumped her body at YNP, she would have never been found. Seriously.
Yes, I saw it 2 days ago on social media, so couldn't mention it then is what I meant. I was hoping someone from MSM would pick it up.

I think that was the original plan but something happened and they had to change the plan. Maybe they noticed cameras or there were too many people out there that day?Well they sure had everyone thinking thats where she was. Intentional or no? Jmo
My take on the whole thing as someone who is LDS: I will do what I can to stand up for the defenseless and the voiceless, I want people to be good, I want justice to prevail in all cases, I don’t want there to be bad things happening in the world. And that takes someone to stand up even if you’re the only one. So despite what is said, if I am in a position to help (I’m not inserting myself where I know nothing) like if I see something or I’m tied into something I will. To me there is a difference between ignoring things and doing what is right.

I don’t know what they are really getting at. But they have from time to time issued statements that are often read at church or announced through other means. Sometimes they are generalized statements that don’t necessarily have an impact on everyone at the time. All jmo mooThis is straight up encouraging obstruction.

I'm not sure if this has been addressed already. Part of the timeline:
The next morning — Nov. 27, 2019 — the Rexburg Police Department is asked to serve a search warrant at the request of Arizona authorities. A Madison County Sheriff’s dispatch log indicates a phone pinged at the 565 Pioneer Road townhomes at that moment. The log also indicated the call related to a missing 7-year-old, now known to be JJ, and “homicide” investigations in Arizona. When police arrived, they discovered the Daybells had “abruptly” left.
The timeline in the disappearance of JJ Vallow and Tylee Ryan | East Idaho News
Do we know who called Madison County SO dispatch from Lori's townhouse area on the morning of Nov 27 in relation to JJ AND an Arizona homicide case?
On another forum that I read some people think this letter might have something to do with the Douglas Lovell death penalty murder case and LDS Bishops meddling in the case and the LDS church does not want this to happen with the Daybell case.
Testimony heard regarding LDS Church's alleged meddling in Weber County death penalty trial
According to MG's and DW's testimony, Chad took them to look at a piece of land close to his own home and was encouraging them to build on that land.
With AxC moving to Rexburg (before marrying ZP) and MP and IP in Rexburg, I just thought that they were trying to get all their stooges together, living in close proximity of each other so they could carry out their plan of the end of the world and gathering the 144,000.

Serving only 10 years would be an absolute travesty! These two have ‘lucked out’ too many times. I can only hope and pray the investigators prevent that from happening.I'd like to preface my response by indicating I certainly have no desire to derail the thread with religious talk. So, instead, I'd like to respond about the beliefs of others. I'm including myself- I have beliefs, and some of them have nothing to do with religion.
About all of them being near one another to gather the 144,000...... How could this number of people be gathered in such a short period of time? Would they have had enough time to prepare for the end of the world (as we know it) so quickly? The biggest question I have is did their beliefs include never being charged for the number of people (including children) who were being murdered? Were they blameless for killing "zombies"?
Every case has its own twists and turns, but this one leaves me shaking my head and asking why? The possibility of them serving only 10 years (if there are not additional charges), makes me want to scream! That is NOT justice for taking the lives of two beautiful children, and possibly a wife and ex-husband.
