Lds Leaders Agree To Return Tithing Money

The rationalization of some thieves is almost comical. This man not only committed fraud against hundreds of people, taking away ALL their retirement money or life savings but he ensure he payed tithing out of this money. And by judging by the amount, it seems he did not pay the whole amount either. rolleyes.gif

OGDEN, Utah (AP) -- Settlement papers show Mormon church leaders agreed to return more than $202,000 in tithing money paid by a man convicted of bilking investors out of more than $142 million.

U.S. District Court filings show Val Southwick paid The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints $202,761.74 between 2001 and 2006.

In 2008, the LDS Church Corporation of the Presidency agreed to return the money as part of a Securities and Exchange Commission enforcement action.

Spokesman Scott Trotter says the church has a policy of not profiting from alleged ill-gotten gains.

Southwick was convicted of securities fraud and is serving nine consecutive prison terms of one to 15 years.

I hate to say this, but, I wonder if this was not an isolated case. I hear that pyramid schemes are huge in Utah, if that is the case, then there could be millions in tithing that is from ill gotten ways.

I'm sure there are, or from gambling wins around Vegas. I have known a few bishops that have said if they know it is from an ill gotten ways they will not accept it. But if they don't know nothing they can say about it.
