Parker said the sect will carry out its vow to register 300 voters in Schleicher County, where the ranch and Eldorado are. "I think so," Parker said. "I don't think you will see people from the ranch running for office but I do think you will see them wanting to have a say in the elections, particularly in the sheriff's race." He said it can be taken as a sign that the FLDS isn't leaving Texas. "They intend to stay," Parker said. "It's inappropriate, almost bigoted to suggest that a group should just go away. I really find that offensive."

The Schleicher County election administrator's office hasn't recorded any new registrants in recent weeks, but if FLDS followers registered online it would take several months for the county to receive notification from the state, a spokesperson said. Last week, Schleicher County Sheriff David Doran told the Star-Telegram that the voter registration would be retaliation against him for his role in the April 3 raid. Parker did nothing to dispel that notion, saying Doran "squandered the opportunity to have a better relationship" with sect leaders and was swayed by CPS allegations of abuse at the ranch.

Heigl to star in movie based on ex-FLDS member's book
Deseret News Originally published Wednesday, June 11, 2008

"Gray's Anatomy" actress Katherine Heigl will star in a feature film adaptation of Carolyn Jessop's best-selling book "Escape," about her life within the Fundamentalist LDS Church. The Hollywood-industry newspaper Variety reported Tuesday that Heigl will also produce the film.

"Shurtleff said he would like to expand the working group to include Colorado, Idaho and other states where the FLDS Church has enclaves." " Asked if the FLDS Church should be concerned about the four states joining forces to investigate any crimes within the group, Arizona Attorney General Terry Goddard smiled. "You could draw that conclusion," he said."

"Clad in a trademark white cowboy hat, a Texas Ranger who attended the meeting declined to speak about the meeting. "I'm not at liberty to discuss much," he said.
 
Fix 'slanderous' claims, FLDS says
Demand sent to Utah A.G., state officers

A Salt Lake City attorney has asked three Utah officials to "immediately correct" misstatements about FLDS members in profiles provided to Texas authorities.
The profiles, given to Texas law enforcement prior to custody hearings for about 450 children from the polygamous sect's YFZ Ranch in Eldorado, Texas, were based on "unsubstantiated or from unreliable sources," said Rod Parker, an FLDS spokesman, in a letter distributed Tuesday.
"As public servants, sworn to serve and protect the citizens, the spreading of slanderous statements such as these jeopardizes the trust of county officials, state officials, law enforcement and government officials of neighboring states, and private citizens," the letter states.
Parker sent the letter to Utah Attorney General Mark Shurtleff, Washington County Attorney Brock Belnap and Washington County Sheriff Kirk Smith.

Utah birth records sought in probe of FLDS couples' ages

Utah birth certificates may be playing a significant role in an investigation into possible sexual abuse at a polygamous sect's Texas ranch, The Salt Lake Tribune has learned.
An Arizona investigator requested copies of birth certificates for approximately 25 FLDS couples from the YFZ Ranch - about 50 people in all - to confirm their dates of birth, according to Jeff Duncan, director of the Utah Office of Vital Records and Statistics.
Gary Engels, a special investigator for Mohave County, Ariz., made the request for information first to the Utah Attorney General's Office, which referred him to the vital statistics office.
"I never heard anything directly from the state of Texas," Duncan said.

FLDS is left without a leader
With Jeffs in jail no one seems to know whom in sect holds power

"There are a lot of people underground," said Holm, a long-distance truck driver. "I know it's difficult for me to get in touch with (the leaders) when I need them."

Legal pressure is mounting against the breakaway Mormon sect on several fronts. Courts forced Texas authorities to return the hundreds of children it seized in April from the FLDS ranch near Eldorado but is building a criminal case as it investigates alleged forced marriages between minor girls and older men there. A massive civil suit against the church is winding its way through the courts in Utah.

And the group's leaders appear to be underground, and possibly on the run.

In Utah, former members are suing them and the church they lead for millions of dollars. Should criminal charges be filed in Texas, the church's leaders will likely be targets, said a knowledgeable source close to the sect who asked not to be named because of the sensitive nature of the proceedings.

FLDS women for the first time are offering their handmade, distinctive style of children's clothes to the public through the Web site fldsdress.com. Launched initially to provide Texas authorities with clothing for FLDS children in custody, the online store now is aimed at helping their mothers earn a living. The venture, which has already drawn queries from throughout the U.S., is banking on interest in modest clothes, curiosity and charity to be a success.

We had to look at what we can do," Jessop said, since the state was "trying to ruin us, almost putting us in a beggar state." "They accuse us of [relying] on welfare, but that's untrue," she said. "We like to be busy and learn to meet our needs - out of ashes growing lilies."

And more enterprising efforts are in the works: The group plans to launch a site offering FLDS-made crafts in coming weeks. It will feature CDs of members like Jessop singing songs for children, children's books written and illustrated by FLDS members and cookie and recipe books.

And the group's leaders appear to be underground, and possibly on the run.

In Utah, former members are suing them and the church they lead for millions of dollars. Should criminal charges be filed in Texas, the church's leaders will likely be targets, said a knowledgeable source close to the sect who asked not to be named because of the sensitive nature of the proceedings. "I expect (Texas authorities) are going to get to the leadership," the source said. From his Utah jail cell, the group's "prophet," Warren Jeffs, issued very few church-related communiqués, according to a court-appointed special trustee. So if Jeffs is little more than a figurehead, who's calling the shots inside the FLDS? Wisan said no one — not even well-placed members — seems certain of the answer. "I've got active FLDS members that I talk to, and they don't know," he said.

As Jeffs' inner circle comes under increasing fire, some speculate there may be room for those out of favor with him to ascend to leadership positions. Carolyn Jessop, who chronicled her journey out of the FLDS in her best-selling memoir Escape, believes a number of men — including Willie Jessop, Warren Jeffs' former bodyguard who has emerged as a sect spokesman in Eldorado (and is not the same man as William T. Jessop) — are probably angling to step in.
 
Jeffs has been indicted again! WOO HOO!

Salem

A snip:
Attorney General Greg Abbott said the five men are charged with one count of sexually assaulting girls under the age of 17. One of them, but not Jeffs, faces an additional charge of bigamy.
Abbott said a sixth member of the Fundamentalist Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints is charged with three counts of failure to report child abuse.
Jeffs, already convicted of being accomplice to rape in Utah and awaiting trial in Arizona on other charges related to underage marriages, is accused of assaulting a girl in Texas in January 2005, according to the indictment issued Tuesday.
"Our investigation in this matter is not concluded. This is an ongoing investigation that we intend to continue," said Abbott, whose office is acting as the special prosecutor in the case.
The grand jury in this tiny western Texas ranching community will continue consideration of other possible criminal charges on Aug. 21, according to a source who spoke on the condition of anonymity because proceedings of the panel are secret by law.
The identities of the Jeffs' followers who were indicted in addition to him were not released Tuesday because the indictments remain sealed until authorities can arrest the men.
"There will be an aggressive effort to apprehend them," Abbott said when asked whether he was concerned the men may have fled Texas.

Posted: 10:05 PM- AUSTIN, Texas - Five men from a West Texas polygamous sect wanted on charges ranging from sexual assault of a child to bigamy turned themselves in Monday, Texas Attorney General Greg Abbott announced.
The men are being held at the Schleicher County jail. Those charged with felonies are being held in lieu of $100,000 bail each. Those men face sentences ranging from five years to life in prison.
