Tim Ballard has posted a four-hour video on YouTube addressing his excommunication and allegations against him, according to the Salt Lake Tribune. The By Common Consent blog discusses the legal and ethical dimensions of Ballard's public statements while multiple lawsuits remain active.

Ballard, the former head of Operation Underground Railroad who faces sexual misconduct allegations from multiple women, was excommunicated by the Church in 2024. He has consistently denied wrongdoing and claimed the Church acted to protect itself.

The blogger notes they have not watched the video and questions the appropriateness of Ballard making lengthy public statements while litigation is ongoing. Multiple civil suits against Ballard are proceeding through Utah courts.
