For decades, The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS Church or Mormon Church) has operated behind a carefully constructed curtain of respectability. With over 17 million members and a global reputation for discipline and family values, the Mormon Church portrays itself as a moral anchor in a world adrift. No question, many of its members have followed the path of righteousness.

But underneath that public image lies a darker truth: a systemic pattern of sexual abuse and institutional cover-up that has left thousands of survivors in its wake. These survivors are now filing Mormon Church sexual abuse lawsuits to expose the truth, seek justice, and ensure that what happened to them never happens to another child again.

In 2025, the scope and magnitude of LDS sex abuse lawsuits has expanded significantly. These legal claims target not just individual perpetrators, bishops, missionaries, youth leaders, and other members of the LDS Church. They target the institution itself, alleging decades of deliberate concealment and obstruction. These LDS Church sexual abuse lawsuits aim to shine a spotlight on what plaintiffs allege is a coordinated system of silence, where protecting the Church’s reputation was prioritized over protecting children from predators.
