I Hope This Is The Last Warren Jeffs Update

Wow, I hope this is the last update for this super horrible case. Today Warren Jeffs has been convicted of young girl fucking and imprego-nating. Here's some bullet points.

* "Spiritual marriages" is really assaulting young girls.
* He instructed young women on how to please their husbands (yuck).
* 10,000 members in his splinter cell of LDS.
* Polygamy is "exaltation from God (whatever that means).
* Jeffs is god's spokesperson.
* 67 underage marriages under Jeffs watch.
* Clearly tried to hide behind religious freedom.
*" On one of the tapes played at the trial, Jeffs made a reference to "drawing close" or "being close," which authorities testified is how church members refer to sex. Two female voices said "OK."

"A good wife is trained for her husband and follows the spirit of peace," Jeffs was heard saying.

"Played in court, it was difficult to decipher, but Jeffs' and a female voice are heard. He says, "I perform this service in the name of Jesus Christ, Amen," then mentions the alleged victim by name. When she says something, he responds, "don't talk while praying." Several minutes of heavy breathing (link)."

That last one is so super yucky. Aaaaaaaaaaaaa. "Heavy breathing." I'm so creeped out. Read the book When Men Become Gods to find out about how the case even got to court. As far as I'm concerned...I hope I never hear of Jeffs and his abuse after the sentencing.

Another Warren Jeffs Update

Super, super creepy.

Ya know on one level ya got to hand it to the guy. He is like the Terminator, he will not stay down. Prison, the law, court, nothing seems to faze this guy.

Recently Warren Jeffs regained control of his splinter cell of the LDS. A couple of years ago Jeffs ceded his presidency to William E. Jessop. They have been fighting for control ever since and esp. since this churches est. wealth is 110 million.

If I recall correctly, from the book When Men Become Gods, Jeffs banished Jessop and then took on his wives (so creepy and if he didn't do that to Jessop, he did it to others-I forget).

Jeffs is currently on trial for young girl fucking and marrying and imprego-nating.

Warren Jeffs Update

Hey look at my attractive Mormon ladies uniform.

OK, prepare to be grossed out I'm going to update on the Warren Jeffs trial. I wrote about this quite some time ago and actually, I thought it had been resolved. Not even close.

Warren Jeffs is accused of young girl fucking and young girl impregnating. He is the leader of a splinter cell of those crazy Mormons (LDS) which claim to have 10,000 members world wide and assets of a measly $110 million. Recently Jeffs fired his team of powerful attorney's.

"You have assembled one of the most impressive legal teams this court has ever seen and perhaps ever seen in the state of Texas," the judge said. She later added, "I urge you not to follow this course of action (link)."

Ya know, I've always liked something about this pic. 

So when it came time to address the court after lawyers presented DNA evidence linking him to "celestial marriage" and threatening to play a tape of him having sex with an underage bride...he was silent.

OK dude, good luck with that strategy.
