-Lurid Crime Tales-

Former members of fundamentalist Mormon cult detail horrific abuse they faced at the hands of pedophile 'prophet' Warren Jeffs - who had 78 WIVES and raped multiple children, while telling them it was the only way they could be 'saved'

2022-06-08

[Daily Mail, where America gets its news]

Warren Jeffs, now 66, has served as the president of the Fundamentalist Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints (FLDS) since 2002

A new Netflix documentary, Keep Sweet: Pray and Obey, is set to expose the heinous crimes that Jeffs committed throughout his ruling over the church

FLDS was created in the early 20th century by a group of Mormons got ostracized from the community because they refused to give up polygamy

Jeffs, who became its prophet in 2002, brainwashed, imprisoned, and abused multiple women and children, earning him a spot on the FBI's Most Wanted List

He had 78 wives, 24 of which were children, when he was arrested in 2008. He was convicted of two felony counts of child sexual assault in 2011

He is currently serving a life sentence for the charges, however, it's been reported that he has continued to run the cult from behind bars

#9 Someone needs to ask him his secret to handling not 1, but 78 wives at the same time.

Yeah, not to mention all the children. I'm thinking some form of public assistance just to keep them fed, clothed and housed. But then he has to figure out kitchen duties, shopping, bathroom schedules, who gets to drive the car(s), etc., etc., etc.

#8 But if he smoked crack and sold his paintings for $5million you'd call him an energy expert.

#7 Who did he think he was, Moohamhead?

Fire the Hildale, Utah, and Colorado City, Arizona police chiefs and district attorney. Better yet throw them in the same prison. Have the wear shirts that read, "we let a child rapist rape those kids.

Let the inmates loose on these criminal acompencing bastards.

The Popes would be next?

#1 I wonder if Netflix is going to make him out to be some sort of Hero or 'Misunderstood' or something?

...We're watching this - Jeffs is shown as the monster he is, no two ways about that.

#2 Isn't this a familiar theme on a rather old LDS topic ?

Are we to assume an LDS kiddie scandal is not a mirror image of millstone hanging around the neck of the Catholic church as well ?

What are we talking about here, Red Delicious or Granny Smith ?
