Father of hit Mormon family piano group accused of sex abuse by his own daughters
UK Daily Mail ^ | Feb. 17, 2011

The father of five siblings who make up internationally renowned piano group The 5 Browns has been accused of sex abuse by his own daughters.

Keith Brown was charged on February 10 with one first-degree count of sodomy on a child, and two second-degree counts of sexual abuse of a child, Salt Lake City court records show.

Just days later his Porsche plunged off a 300ft embankment as he returned from a ski resort on Valentine's Day with his wife Lisa.

Brown, 55, was driving, and wife Lisa, 54, the mother of the children, was in the passenger seat. The couple had been driving home from a ski resort when the accident occurred.

They were both knocked unconscious, but Brown woke up and managed to dial 911. The cause of the crash remains under investigation, but police said speed was a factor.

SNIP

Court documents state the allegations stem from separate occasions between November 1990 and October 1992, November 1990 and November 1992 and March 1997 and March 1998 in Utah County.

Mr Thomson said the Brown women severed their professional relationship with Keith Brown in October of 2008. He was once the manager of The 5 Browns but now has no connection to the group...

The perp, if unrepentant, would be excommunicated.

To some people, such things go without saying or are assumed. Everyone I know would agree.

I can’t say more about what I know is really going on here because I would be accused of mind reading. Any regular reader of this forum with any brains at all knows it though. No mind reading required. But alas, one must play “the game”.

Anyone guilty of sex abuse regardless of their religious background deserves to be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law. I personally don’t know of anyone who would disagree.

And I don’t have to ask them all just to double-check. It goes without saying.

This is all just misdirection. A tactic in the fun little bag of tricks of an anti-Mormon propagandist.

Seriously, why not just stop with the first part of your post, what was the point in the part I struck.

Give it a rest.

No, Tennessee Nana, never let perversion "rest". Letting it "rest" enables it. Be ever vigilant.

Selah.

Wish I could answer you but the mind reading police in your gang would get me if history is any indicator.

Gotta run... later

You win the cupie doll because I have know idea what you are talking about. It was a simple question "why not stop", and you prattle on about mind reading.

So out of 13.8 million church members, there are a whole dozen stories ?

#1 I didn't cover all LDS sexual abuse scandal stories...Kevin Garn & his nude hot-tubbing incidents with a minor that broke early in 2010, for example.

#2 Some of the Utah educator sex-with-students' stories I'm sure have involved Lds members, but weren't specifically Id'd as Lds. (Utah's been one of the leading states for school-based sexploitation for a while now). I mean what? Do you think news venues id's EVERY sexual abuser by the sect or denomination they are -- especially in a state like Utah where the Deseret News, Mormon Times, and KSL are all owned by the Mormon church? (What illusory island do you live on?)

#3 Let's say we dug around to find so that what was linked was twice that many -- all you have to do is talk to abuse hotline counselors and they'll tell you all about the "iceberg" reality. We'd barely be covering the surface.

#4 Who hired you as Sexual Perpetrator Advocate, Inc.? Do you work only for Mormon perps, or are you an at-large mercenary for such exploitive abusers? I mean, I'm sure all these victims that you've played down just "love" your approach to treating them as if their abuse was non-consequential. /sarc

No where have I defended or advocated for the pervert, and no where would I.

Of course, in your three previous posts to this one I'm responding to -- on the two threads I posted today...
...did you even say a single word about the perpetrators -- let alone address either one in any kind of way?

Nope...Two perpetrators with multiple victims spanning three or more years per perpetrator...

And who got your goat provoking you in those three posts?
Was it the Boy Scout abuser? No. You still haven't said a word about him!
How about in your previous two posts to this one above on this thread?
A word about the perp? (No...not until I called you on it)

There's more than one way to come across as "supportive," you know. By your early silence on these threads about the perps, you showed ALL of us -- in a very similar manner to Paragon Defender -- that you were more concerned about the news-bearer than the one who brought the news.

Even now...7 posts on two threads into discussing these perps, you've assigned...
...5 negative labels to me for highlighting what these perps have done...
...and 4 negative labels (5 if include the word "crime") to one of these perps...
...and have totally ignored saying anything negative about the other...

We know what upsets you -- and what doesn't.
We know what provokes you -- and what doesn't.
All we have to do for a clear diagnosis is what a doctor does when he taps your knee.

You remind me of the sick puppies out there who always have been concerned about graphic pictures of aborted babies being shown. Such people tend never to complain about the actual abortions -- the act that generated the condition of the aborted babies to begin with -- but boy, you show such a picture in public, and they will howl with the moon!

Your provocation is seriously (and sickly) misdirected!

LOL how absurd. Typical.... twist and spout. I did not negatively label you for highlighting what any perps have done. That is completely false. But that little twist fits your agenda huh?

I can’t point out what you are really doing with these threads. The old mind-reading card you all pull protects you well. Interesting tool.

Sorry. I guess it’s over your head. My answer was quite clear.

Do you really expect me (or anyone else who reads these boards regularly) to believe that your concern and reason for posting these was simply about victims and perpetrators and had absolutely nothing to do with your anti-Mormon activism that is on display here pretty much non-stop?

Really? Seriously?
