"The victim is allegedly a relative who was between the ages of 9 and 10, while he was claimed to be seven years older."

Adventures With Purpose founder Jared Leisek arrested in Utah for ‘child rape’ after 'assaulting female relative aged nine TWICE in family home'
Leisek, 47, was charged with the alleged 1992 crime in November
He said he had 'made peace' with 'all bad things' in his life, 'including this'*
Leisek, who was raised Mormon, blamed his family history for previous 'sins'*
Several members of the volunteer diving team have since resigned
What a creep. I hope the other members of AWP move on and form their own group. AWP did such good work throughout the years.

Judge denies motion to dismiss rape charges against founding member of well known search and recovery team
Leisek's defense team argued three points: The statute of limitations ran out, the victim consented and the court can't try an adult for a crime committed as a juvenile.
In these newly released documents the court explains that amendments to an eight-year statute of limitations rule allows prosecution of sexual abuse of a child anytime within four years after the offense is reported to law enforcement.
The court also states in the documents that a 10-year-old cannot consent to sexual intercourse in Utah.
Lastly, the court explains how the state allows prosecution for the rape of a child that is alleged to have occurred when Leisek was between 14 and 18-years-old. However, sentencing limitations are a possibility as the document states that the court should impose a sentence that is consistent with one that would be made in juvenile court.
DICK TIPS
I think she was 12 and he was 17 if I recall the court documents correctly. He claims sexual abuse was rampant in the household and within the family. The other members of AWP all quit and for a long time were unable to start their own search and rescue organization because of contracts they had signed with Jared (who owns the AWP brand). Doug Bishop and Josh Cantu are working together again doing SAR so they must have resolved that legal issue or perhaps the time limit expired. Dan is doing similar rescue work in Australia. I noticed that Jared is back working with AWP again and he has a new crew.
You are talking to a woman who has laughed in the face of death, sneered at doom and chuckled at catastrophe.
