Taylor Frankie Paul posted on Instagram about the emotional work of healing after the Salt Lake County District Attorney's Office announced it will not file charges in two recent domestic violence investigations involving her. The DA said some alleged events were outside the statute of limitations and others lacked sufficient evidence to meet the criminal standard. Paul wrote about feeling freed from a difficult period and referenced prior mental-health diagnoses while saying she will share parts of her recovery.
Key facts:
- The Salt Lake County District Attorney's Office declined to file charges after screening evidence submitted by the Draper and West Jordan police departments, citing statute of limitations and insufficient evidence where required to prove charges beyond a reasonable doubt.
- Paul posted on Instagram about the "ugly parts" of healing and wrote that she has been diagnosed with PTSD and believes she now has complex PTSD, as reported by multiple therapists.
- Production of The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives was paused earlier after an alleged February incident prompted a separate production review by the show's producers or network.
- Paul and her ex appeared in court on April 7 over an existing order of protection, and Paul filed and was granted a temporary restraining order prior to that appearance.
Summary:
The DA's decision means prosecutors will not pursue criminal charges related to the investigated incidents; production on the series remains paused while a separate production review continues. Undetermined at this time.
