Mummified remains of Love Has Won leader found in religious group's Colorado home
A woman who led a controversial Colorado religious group is dead and seven of her followers are under investigation after Saguache County sheriff’s deputies found the leader’s mummified body in a sleeping bag and wrapped in Christmas lights inside a home in Moffat.
When deputies entered the home they could see mummified remains wrapped in a sleeping bag on a bed in a back room, according to the affidavit. The body had glitter makeup around its eyes and was decorated with Christmas tree lights, the affidavit said.
“The mummified remains appeared to be set up in some type of shrine,” the affidavit said.
Seven people who were at the home where the body was discovered were arrested Wednesday for investigation of abuse of a corpse and child abuse, according to an arrest affidavit from the Saguache County Sheriff’s Office.
A member of the group posted a statement and a video about Carlson’s death on Love Has Won’s Facebook page, although she said Mother God had “ascended.”
“She did not pass away. She ascended,” a woman who identified herself as Bobby said Sunday in a video on Facebook. “Her essence left the body of Amy Carlson at 12:22. She is indeed happy now.”
