Church Facing Lawsuit

A local church’s failure to do a background check on a man later accused of sexually assaulting a teenage parishioner exposed the girl to abuse at the hands of a mentor, according to a lawsuit filed Friday in Boulder District Court.

A woman who claims Peter Kim initiated an increasingly sexual relationship with her while she was a teenager in the youth group he directed at Central Presbyterian Church filed the suit, claiming the church failed to take steps to protect her.
