If the MMM had been prosecuted to its fullest potential, there would be no Mormons today, since Brigham Young and the entire Mormon hierarchy would have been hanged!
Forty two white men were hanged at Gainesville Texas in 1862, for failing to support the Confederacy, the same year thirty eight Santee Sioux were hanged in Minnesota, after five American settlers were killed by Indians, whose case rested on their assertion the settlers fired first.
Eighty five Irish traitors were justly hanged in New Mexico in 1846, they had deserted General Taylor’s command and joined Santa Anna’s forces in Mexico. The deserters then crossed back into Texas, and slew eleven of their former comrades from ambush on the northern bank of the Rio Grande.
Fifty four Mormons took part in the Mountain Meadows Massacre, of whom thirty two were from England, Brigham Y was up to his neck in it all, as well he received livestock and property looted from the wagons.
John D Lee Mormon Bishop and adopted son of BY, was the single Mormon executed by firing squad in 1877!
