I am curious in order to establish the fact that the society uses a policy of first contacting the Branch in regards to cases of child abuse and not the police, was the Elders manual used as proof? I have a suspicion it was, but would like to see it verified. Casually looking at the case notes right now.
I also wonder if they used previous documentation made by the elders for the perp, such as his first "conviction".
Anyone have insights?
