Transcript excerpt
I have a laundry list of female victims that have been abused, sexually assaulted by Clint Okay. Which comes back to the church. And I and and he's been warned against this. You know, we have told him so. Right. But warning against it rank doing something the right way Right. Because you're just keeping a pedophile in your church. So why do you not turn them in as a mandated reporter? We felt that this has changed it as a part of the church that we we we keep silent in that. It is right for you to keep silent when it's one on one, say, with you and Clint by by themselves. But having these forgive and forget meetings with Clint and his victims, that's a mandated reporter.
