In 2006, Warren Jeffs, then the president and prophet of the FLDS, was arrested and charged with accomplice rape, for just two of the underage marriages he had arranged. In 2011, Jeffs was sentenced to life in prison, plus 20 years. Through his brother Lyle—Bishop of the FLDS and mouthpiece for his imprisoned brother—Jeffs enacted a Judgment wherein FLDS members were asked a series of bizarre personal questions; their answers were judged, and the most righteous were welcomed into the United Order of FLDS elite. Those who did not make it into the UO were separated from their families, placed in patchwork homes of other UO "orphans," and told to repent. THIS was from an article sent by another member. It states Lyle Jeffs is BISHOP of FLDS and the Mouthpiece for his brother while he is in Prison. He was in control of everything! This is taking him off the streets. Is this how they are starting to SHUT DOWN the FLDS?
