Episode Details

Three survivors of child rape say they were failed by their family, their church, and the courts — and now their last hope rests with the U.S. Supreme Court. For years, attorneys Lynne Cadigan and John Trebone have fought pro bono on their behalf, alleging that bishops with the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints knew about the abuse and did nothing to stop it. Arizona's Family investigates whether religious freedom is being used to shield institutions from accountability — and whether the courts are letting it happen.
