A bishop for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in Kaysville is being held without bail after investigators say they found him in possession of thousands of images of child pornography.

According to arrest records, investigators received tips from Skype in August that 61-year-old Timothy Hallows had uploaded images using their platforms.

During an interview, police say Hallows made statements that led them to believe that he has had sexual contact with children.

LDS Church officials say the suspect was removed from his position immediately after the allegations were reported.
