A woman who was sexually abused as a girl by her adopted father is suing The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, alleging a bishop from a Vancouver branch they attended was informed of the abuse but failed to report it to police or child welfare workers.
As a result, the girl suffered additional months of abuse when the adopted parents split and the father, Craig McNeil Ford, took the girl to live with him in Oregon, according to the suit.
