The LDS acknowledges that Joseph Smith married an underage girl.
Your great-great-great grandpa probably fricked with an underaged girl too.
tl/dr: People in glass houses....

And if the church is required to keep confessions confidential, no matter the subject?

Oregon is one of 28 states that considers clergy among professionals mandated by law to report known or suspected instances of child abuse or neglect.
They are required by law to report. The church's right only extends to the point at which others rights are being violated.
My wife is an elementary teacher. Duty to report. shite gets bad, quick, fast, and in a hurry if it becomes knows that she failed to report a situation once she was aware of it.

This has been covered already. Privileged communication trumps the duty to report (in Oregon).
The issue at hand is the Church says the communication was not privileged, the wife said it was.

Sure, I just don't know the repercussions to someone in the clergy for breaking privilege. I personally wouldn't give a shite about my law license if I were ever in that situation
If the conversation was privileged, ex. lawyer or priest, the privilege belongs to the person that made the statement. Even if the priest/lawyer makes public the previous crime, the information would still be inadmissible.
