He potentially faces 6 months in jail and a $1000.00US fine. I just watched his video on YouTube. It as actually the South Jordan temple (where he was arrested) from what he states on the video.

But there probably isn't any jurisdiction where the sentence is longer than a year in jail, and since it is a non violent crime and jails are full, pretty unlikely that he'll ever serve that. Contempt can cause people to spend a very long time in jail. At some point some judge is going to get good and offended at his contemptuous behavior and give him an "uttermost farthing" jail stay.

Thanks (I don't live in that area...or even in Utah, so hear it referred to as the South Jordan Temple), I was quoting what he said in the video. Nice to know the "official" name Seems others refer to it as the South Jordan Temple too: https://fox13now.com/2018/05/22/south-jordan-temple-officially-reopens/ 1 Link to comment

Which they should if it can be done legally and if the punishment matches the crime. I've actually been in a group where this guy got up to speak (I was invited by a family member to this gathering) and I have to say that he's one crazy guy! 1 Link to comment

But it’s not a big deal. Link to comment

I wish the Church would include lds.org as part of the tresspass Edited July 1, 2018 by provoman Link to comment

Anijen Posted July 2, 2018 Share Posted July 2, 2018 Just an FYI, Trespassing is a criminal offense, but we should not forget that the Church, if they desire, can also go after him in a civil suit. Trespassing is also a tort, (an act that has civil liability consequences). In a civil suit the burden of proof is less and the church can be awarded not just monetary damages, but punitive damages. We know the church does not need any money, but if the court decided on this type of action, it could be another way to deter him from what seems to be a consistent behavior with him. It would probably make him at least think twice before he does it again, because it can start to add up. Link to comment
