Warren Jeffs

At the border of Utah and Arizona, a remote theocratic community has been thriving for decades. They live in full obedience to a spiritual leader, whom they believe to be ordained by God. His name is Warren Jeffs, the Prophet of the Fundamentalist Church of Jesus Christ and the latter day Saints. On a quiet summer night, Flora Jessup is on a dangerous mission: to rescue two teenage girls who are trying to flee the same religious community that she escaped years before - the FLDS. Having its stronghold in the twin towns of Hildale, Utah and Colorado City, Arizona, the Fundamentalists are a splinter group from the Mormon Church, who strive to preserve the polygamist practices abandoned by the original movement in the early 20th century. Its members live under strict religious rules, dictated by polygamist Prophet Warren Jeffs, a manipulative and tyrannical leader who rules over every aspect of the members of the congregation lifes, including their properties, their work and who they can marry, including teenage and child brides that he takes even for himself. Disobeying the will of the prophet, is like disobeying a direct commandment of God, and punishment is harsh. Jeffs would be arrested and sentenced to life in prison plus 20 years for the sexual abuse of minors. What Kind of man can have this absolute power over 10.000 people? In this episode, we bring you the story of Warren Jeffs, told by cult experts, researchers, award winning journalists, and former FLDS members Flora Jessop and Brielle Dekker, who was Jeff's 65th wife. Even from behind bars, Warren Jeffs keeps sending edits to those who keep loyal to the FLDS and blindly believe that it is God's will to obey him.
