They got Him!!!

Warren Jeffs, the supposed prophetic leader of the Fundamentalist Ladder Day Saints (FLDS) church was captured today in Neveda on a routine traffic stop. Jeffs was put on the FBI's most wanted list just a few weeks ago. Charges against him include polygamy, sodomy and child abuse, to name a few.
Believing himself to be the "Prophet," Warren Jeffs took over the FLDS sect of the mormon church after his father's death in 2002. Jeffs is known for his racial bias and ego-maniacal sermons and leadership. Recently, he began to flush his church of members by ex-communication. This not only tore apart families, but caused many members to go into bankruptcy. Ex-communicants have mostly fled to British Columbia or have left the church entirely.
To be a member of FLDS, one must be born into a family whose religious beliefs are mormon. Once a girl is old enough to have her period, she is assigned or "married" to a husband of Jeffs' choosing. Women are often re-assigned husbands if ex-commincation has occured.
Three communities are centers for the FLDS in America. They are: El Dorado, TX, Colorado City, AZ and Hildale, UT. Most notably is the YFZ Ranch in El Dorado, TX. Land purchased in El Dorado was reportedly set aside for a retreat center for FLDS. The Yearn for Zion (YFZ) Ranch is now a compound with gardens, homes and a HUGE temple, built for Jeffs' followers. Construction was expedited in March to meet the April 6, 2006 deadline~ supposedly, the day of Christ's birth (according to Jeffs) and the end of the world.
Jeffs' arrested occured during a routine traffic stop, when a Nevada State Trooper noticed his Escalade had no licsense plates. According to the arresting officer, Jeffs, whose brother was driving at the time, tried his best to look calm, but his jugular vein was pumping so hard, it was literally popping out of his skin. He finally confessed to being Warren Jeffs when the FBI was called in.
On a personal note... I am so glad he was captured peacefully. These women can have upwards of 14 or 15 children each in this sect. Children's lives were saved by the grace of God and the smarts of the Neveda Trooper who went on a hunch! I am glad another Waco was avoided. Now, let's prosecute this S-O-B and give him a roomie in jail who will call him BITCH!!!
