Joseph Bishop's son and attorney, Greg Bishop of [[Park City, Utah]],<ref>{{cite web|author=Tess Vigeland |url=https://www.marketplace.org/2012/08/10/life/mormons-and-provident-living |title=Mormons and provident living |publisher=Marketplace.org |date=2012-08-10 |accessdate=2018-03-24}}</ref> told reporters that at the time of the interview, his father and client was on medications and recovering from surgery, and lacked mental acuity, and that many of his statements in the recording reflect this confusion.

Furthermore, Greg Bishop said that sometime after Denson returned to Provo, Utah, from Washington D.C., she showed her breasts to Joseph Bishop without solicitation.<ref name="deseretnews1"/><ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.deseretnews.com/article/900013586/police-report-sheds-more-light-on-accusations-against-former-mtc-president.html|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180322123124/https://www.deseretnews.com/article/900013586/police-report-sheds-more-light-on-accusations-against-former-mtc-president.html|url-status=dead|archive-date=March 22, 2018|title=Police report sheds more light on accusations against former MTC president|first=Tad|last=Walch|website=[[Deseret News]] |date=21 March 2018|publisher=}}</ref><ref>{{Cite news|url=https://www.nytimes.com/aponline/2018/03/21/us/ap-us-mormon-church-sexual-assault.html|title=Former Mormon Mission President Accused of Sexual Assault|agency=Associated Press|date=2018-03-21|work=The New York Times|access-date=2018-03-22|issn=0362-4331}}</ref> Denson has denied this, stating that the last time she met with Bishop was at the time of the assault: "I did not speak to that man again until Dec. 2, 2017."<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.sltrib.com/news/2018/04/05/woman-accusing-missionary-training-center-president-of-rape-stands-in-front-of-cameras-to-say-she-is-a-victim/|title=Woman accusing Missionary Training Center president of rape wants justice — and policy changes in the LDS Church|website=The Salt Lake Tribune}}</ref> BYU police stated that, during their 2017 investigation, Bishop told them that at the MTC, he asked Denson to show him her breasts.<ref name="sltrib1">{{Cite news|url=https://www.sltrib.com/news/2018/03/22/former-missionary-training-center-president-admits-to-asking-a-young-missionary-to-expose-her-breasts-in-the-80s-byu-police-say/|title=Former Missionary Training Center president admits to asking a young missionary to expose her breasts in the '80s, BYU police say|work=The Salt Lake Tribune|access-date=2018-03-22}}</ref> (Bishop's son and attorney says his father and client does not remember making that statement to police.<ref name="azcentral1"/>) The [[Utah County]] attorney's office said that it likely would have prosecuted Bishop if Utah's [[statute of limitations]] for [[rape]] (which up until the 1990s had been four years) had not expired.

Greg Bishop distributed to the news media excerpts from a dossier compiled by attorney David Jordan of [[Stoel Rives]], who had been hired by the LDS Church, which contained Denson's LDS Church membership record, and which detailed the history of investigations of Denson's accusations within various jurisdictions, as well as for alleged crimes such as criminal [[fraud]]. Denson had reported over a half-dozen times that she was assaulted by numerous men on numerous separate occasions. Jordan's dossier says that Denson later retracted her initial accusations on certain occasions as having been false. None of these accusations have been prosecuted.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.sltrib.com/news/2018/03/22/former-missionary-training-center-president-admits-to-asking-a-young-missionary-to-expose-her-breasts-in-the-80s-byu-police-say/|title=Former Missionary Training Center president admits to asking a young missionary to expose her breasts in the '80s, BYU police say|website=The Salt Lake Tribune}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|author=Kiersten Nuñez|url=http://fox13now.com/2018/03/21/family-of-former-lds-mission-president-accused-of-sexual-assault-responds-to-allegations/ |title=Family of former LDS mission president accused of sexual assault responds to allegations |publisher=Fox13|location=Salt Lake City|date= 22 March 2018}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.sltrib.com/religion/2018/04/04/a-woman-was-shocked-to-see-her-name-in-a-mormon-church-compiled-dossier-which-she-says-was-designed-to-discredit-her-birth-mother/|title=A woman was shocked to see her name in a Mormon church-compiled dossier — which she says was designed to discredit her birth mother|website=The Salt Lake Tribune}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web|url=http://kutv.com/news/local/exclusive-documents-reveal-how-the-lds-church-responded-to-mtc-sex-scandal|title=Exclusive: Documents reveal how the LDS Church responded to MTC sex scandal|first=Chris|last=Jones|date=March 30, 2018|website=KUTV}}</ref>
