The executive committee recently met to vote on waiving attorney-client privilege in an investigation regarding their handling of abuse allegations.
The chief of the Southern Baptist Convention executive committee, Ronnie Floyd, resigned from the organization after an internal conflict from an ongoing sexual abuse investigation.
Reviewing the information would allow the investigator to determine if committee officials were advised by attorneys on how to manage the reports of sexual abuse. The Southern Baptist Convention, based in Nashville, is the nation's largest Protestant denomination with 14 million members and a network of churches across the country. Over the years, the SBC has faced controversy for how it responded to allegations of sexual abuse.
