McKenna Denson might drop her lawsuit against the LDS Church over sexual misconduct by mission president

The woman who has accused the former head of Provo’s Missionary Training Center of sexual misconduct told a federal judge on Tuesday she might want to drop her lawsuit against The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.

McKenna Denson’s lawsuit has been in limbo since last May, when her lawyers quit the case. She has told U.S. Magistrate Judge Dustin Pead over the past few months that she had been working on finding someone new to represent her.

But on Tuesday, Denson said she might be ready to just dismiss the case.
