A rare child sex abuse and cover up lawsuit has been filed against
Oregon Quaker officials who apparently put an admitted child molester
back on the job last year and hid his crimes. We hope law enforcement
will investigate and charge church staff for their reckless, callous,
secretive and selfish actions.
A former Northwest Yearly Meeting of Friends youth superintendent, Bruce Bishop, is being sued for allegedly repeatedly abusing a boy between 11 and 16 years old. According to one news source, last year, Quaker officials confronted Bishop with abuse accusations, he “confirmed” them, was quietly suspended, but was later forgiven by his church colleagues and returned to ministry. If true, this is horrifying.
