Description

In this update, co-host and attorney Tim Kosnoff reflects on the impact of Architecture of Abuse’s first season. With tens of thousands of downloads and an outpouring of listener responses, the series has become a powerful resource for survivors of child sexual abuse—helping many find the language, courage, and support to take their first steps in speaking out.


Tim shares insights from the feedback he and the team have received, including how the series is resonating both inside and outside the LDS community. He recounts his experience presenting at the Sunstone Conference, where conversations highlighted the urgent need for broader awareness and education.


This update also addresses one of the most pressing listener questions: the existence of a proprietary database of abusers within the LDS Church. Tim explains why it has been kept private, how survivors can inquire about their abuser, and what’s next for the podcast.

All views expressed are opinions only and do not constitute legal advice.


Every case is unique and should be considered and handled on a case-by-case basis. Under current law, and after decades of experience bringing cases against institutions like the LDS Church, it is our professional opinion that there is no mechanism to handle CSA-related claims other than individually. Under current law we do not anticipate that, without substantial changes to the law, there will be a mechanism—class action, consolidated cases, federal multi-district actions, or anything else—that will allow these claims to proceed on anything other than an individual basis. They are all simply too fact dependent. For inquiries about legal representation, visit kosnoff.com
