Former LDS Church bishop, Erik Wayne Hughes, has been arrested and accused of drugging and sexually abusing two teenage boys.
Hughes, 51, of Mapleton, was arrested Wednesday night and booked into the Utah County Jail for investigation of 20 counts of forcible sexual abuse, dealing in harmful materials to a minor, sexual exploitation of a minor and witness tampering.
A victim claims that Hughes did things such as give him Viagra and touched his genitals 30 to 50 times, the two also allegedly exchanged explicit photos of each other.
On another occasion, police say Hughes had a male victim meet him in Las Vegas during a business trip. The victim said he was given a pill by Hughes that “made him feel groggy,” according to the affidavit, and at that point, he said he was sexually assaulted.
