A person who stood up and shouted during a general conference session of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints to draw attention to allegations of sexual abuse has been fined and ordered to stay away from the faith’s main temple. The Deseret News reports a judge levied the penalty Monday against 25-year-old Crystal Legionaires, who stood up and yelled "Stop protecting sexual predators” during the twice-yearly meeting of the faith in March 2018. Legionaires was found guilty of the infraction of disrupting a meeting and fined $340.
