Re: Polygamist captured
I am really glad they got him, finally. I think damaged a lot of lives and I hope he spends a lot of time behind bars.

Re: Polygamist captured
I am wondering why they let his wife go. She and his brother were interviewed but no charges made against them. Isn't she also a polygamist?

Re: Polygamist captured
It took a while, but they finally sentenced him..
http://www.cnn.com/2011/CRIME/08/09/texas.polygamist.jeffs/index.html?hpt=hp_t2
San Angelo, Texas (CNN) -- Polygamist leader Warren Jeffs was sentenced Tuesday to life in prison plus 20 years for sexually assaulting two girls he claimed were his "spiritual wives."
Jeffs, 55, will have to spend at least 45 years in prison before being eligible for release, according to Jerry Strickland, spokesman for the Texas Attorney General's office.
The jury sentenced Jeffs to life in prison for aggravated sexual assault of a 12-year-old girl and 20 years in prison for the sexual assault of a 15-year-old girl. He must serve at least 35 years of the life sentence and half of the other sentence, Strickland said. The judge in the case ordered that the sentences be served consecutively.
Jeffs perverted his position as the head of the Fundamentalist Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints to "satisfy his own personal appetites and desires," prosecutor Eric Nichols said.
Those appetites included forcing sex on the two girls, 12 and 15, who he had taken as wives, prosecutors said.
Audiotapes seized from his car and the church's Yearning For Zion Ranch compound in Eldorado, Texas, and played for jurors during his trial, depicted Jeffs offering "celestial marriage" instructions to the young wives, according to prosecutors.
