(Bethany Baker | The Salt Lake Tribune) Stephanie Mateer launched a lawsuit against a Utah OB-GYN, who she says sexually assaulted her during an exam. More than 90 other women joined her case with similar allegations.

The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints has agreed to pay $5 million for hiding past stock holdings in a settlement with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. More than 90 women allege that a Utah doctor sexually assaulted them. And a bill at the Legislature would shield new quarries from county or municipal oversight.
