A number have alleged the subject of Sound of Freedom used the ‘couples ruse’ as a pretext to make unwanted sexual advances
Timothy Ballard, the founder of Operation Underground Railroad and subject of the film Sound of Freedom, has filed lawsuits against seven women who are accusing him of sexual assault: Celeste Borys, Sashaleigha Hightower, Mary Hall, Kira Lynch, Krista Kacey, Bree Righter and Amy Morgan Davis. Specific accusations against Ballard include pretending to have sex with Borys in the shower, grinding, grabbing, kissing and licking. “It was obvious that he had an erection,” Mary Hall said at one point.

Around the time Sound of Freedom was released, things became murky. Ballard resigned from his position as CEO of OUR on June 22, 2023, supposedly as a result of accusations of sexual misconduct, which Ballard denied. An actual lawsuit wasn’t filed until October 9, where five women said they were coerced into sexual acts after joining Ballard on his sting operations. Supposedly Ballard took advantage of this “couples ruse,” where he would hire certain women to act like they were romantically involved with him in order to trick sex traffickers before they busted them.
Oh…the IRONY!
SUE SUE SUE!!!
The Mormon Church is running like lightning from this guy. They don’t want another Warren Jeffs or Chad Daybell scandal to bring down the church
People in the church don’t need to be doing this kind of insane behavior. The should be saving people with the gospel, not with undercover sting operations.
This is where the “save the children” excuse to justify essentially criminal behavior reaches it’s ultimate destination: a grotesque caricature of a worthy purpose to stop sexual exploitation.
