In most cases, I can agree with this. In the particular story I mentioned, it turned out that the guy had been an inactive Mormon for many years before the crime occurred.

I don't believe that the Trib has an agenda; rather, I think it's biased and is willing to be the mouthpiece of those who dislike the presence of the LDS church.
