Misstatement:
"Mormon Tom Green"
Fact:
Tom Green is not a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints; he is not a Mormon. As one reporter stated, "Green is not a Mormon, and it's more than inaccurate, it's irresponsible to call him one. It is sort of like calling Martin Luther a Catholic because he was a priest for a time."
You cannot practice polygamy and be a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.
Misstatement:
"Accusations that the Mormon Church used its political influence to silence Tom Green."
Fact:
There is no truth to this rumor, nor any evidence whatsoever to any involvement by the Church in the prosecution of Mr. Green.
