Lynn A. Thompson has been the President of the Priesthood of the Apostolic United Brethren (AUB), a Mormon fundamentalist sect, since September 2, 2014.[1]
Apostolic United Brethren
Thompson had been a member of the AUB's Priesthood Council under the leadership of J. LaMoine Jenson.[2] He assumed leadership of the Bluffdale, Utah church, following the 2014 death of Jenson.[2]
Allegations of abuse
In November 2014, Rosemary Williams, daughter of Thompson and cast member of the television show My Five Wives, accused Thompson of molesting her more than two decades ago.[3] She claimed that he fondled her when she was 12 years old.[4][3] However, Rosemary stated that she not plan to file a lawsuit or a criminal accusation as "she doesn't think it will do any good."[5]
In response, Thompson denied the allegations when contacted by the Associated Press.[5][3] AUB spokesman David Watson stated that the allegations against Thompson were being investigated by "other leaders in the church" and that "if there's criminal allegations that need to be turned over to local authorities, that's what we do."[5][3]
