Jenny Larson has been a skeptic since she was a child living in a polygamous, fundamentalist Mormon community. "The prophet when I was growing up was a big, fat pig," she asserts. Now 59, she's out of the sect and known for helping other women leave. Larson's enemies tell her she'll wind up in hell. Those she's rescued think otherwise. "They say Aunt Jenny is an agent of the devil," says Dusty Lato, one of many who sought her assistance over the years. "But to me she was a godsend."
The sect, officially called the Fundamentalist Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, separated from the Mormon church when it renounced plural marriage in 1890. Based in Colorado City, Ariz., the sect's estimated 4,000 residents believe polygamy and large families will gain them access to the highest tier of heaven. Women reportedly bear an average of 10 children each.
"It's a cult is what it is," says Larson. "They tell you who to marry, what to wear. People there are so brainwashed, they're like puppets. The leader says 'frog,' and they jump. It's unreal."
For the last decade, Larson has run an underground railroad of sorts, sheltering young women who run away from the isolated community, helping them find jobs, offering moral support, and collecting donations. Many of the teen-agers are her nieces or cousins; some are underage.
"It's hard not to help when they come knocking on your door," says Larson, who lives with her shopkeeper husband in St. George, Utah, 35 miles from Colorado City. "They don't know how to cope. They have no money and no skills."
Larson herself was expected to marry into the sect. "I saw the outside world before my family moved there," she says. "I knew there were choices I could make. My mother was treated like dirt. I wasn't going to become a baby machine."
Annette Jessop is one of Larson's rescues. At 18, she waited for Larson under a bush in the middle of the night. "At first, I thought I was going to get struck by lightning, because that's what they tell you will happen, and worse," recalls Jessop, now living in Nevada with her husband and two children.
The women Larson has helped are settled throughout the country. There are a few, however, for whom the culture shock of the "outside world" was too much; they've returned home to become plural wives. "My big thing," stresses Larson, "is I want these girls to have choices."
Hoorah for Texas! Many commenters in other publications write that Texas is acting like the Nazis, another Waco, or infringing on religious freedom. Do they know that AZ. has paid out 12 million for FUMERASE DEFICIENCY syndrome? Texas is not going to subject
taxpayers to pay for birth defects and future birth defects caused by inbreeding. Save the innocent children!
Lets hope that the B.C. Government in Canada will take a page from the State of Texas and go after Winston Blackmore in Bountiful.
He's gotten away with it for too long.
I am saddened to know that children are possibly being abused (sexually/emotionally/physically). However, I do feel that civil rights have been violated.
I believe in "Civil Rights", however this is not civil rights being violated. It's slavery. There is a limit to anything, freedom of speach, sexual preference...that limit is when one is being made to do something regardless of their feelings or age. Being forced or brainwashed.
I believe first and foremost the children need to be protected. I hope that the government doesn't mishandle this and in so doing the children are sent back to face years of abuse. I just hope that every t is crossed and every i dotted. I do believe civil rights could possibly be violated if the government is not careful.
Since when did civil rights become more important than childrens safety. Young girls and boys are being violated in a most ugly and horrific way, and people have the nerve to worry about civil rights. The rights and safety of the children trumps everything else. The authorities in Utah and Arizona know a lot more about these cults than they let on. I'm glad to see that Texas has the courage to step up and do something.
In all the pictures, there are many more girl children than boys and that would not be normal in a normal society. What happens when too many boy babies are born?
AMERICA, I beg you to wake up. We need to save these children from the life described above. All FLDS or polygamy communities need to be raided, children removed, DNA tested and medically treated. The women (mothers) should also be removed so that they can be DNA tested, medically treated and helped to stop the cycle of abuse. I know some may not agree, but I really hope that Texas will put all of the FLDS children up for adoption as I don't think it is possible for the mothers or fathers to create a life for them that is free of neglect, abuse or sexual torture. This is one of the largest human atrocities I have ever seen - Congress should be ruling that polygamy compounds are illegal, disbanded and children given to homes who will love, protect, nurture and educate them. CALL YOUR REPRESENTATIVES - ASK FOR LEGISLATION TO PROTECT THESE ABUSED CHILDREN!
I think Texas did the right thing but in the wrong way. By yanking all these children from there mothers they are creating sympathy for the polygamists. they should have been kept with their mothers but removed from the compound things should have progressed slowly during the initial investigation and the sped up as they gained evidence, not the other way around.
When there are to many boys some are forced from the society becuse they break silly laws like wearing t shirts or watching movies. Only those who obey everything they are told are allowed to stay and they are trained to have many wives one day.
Jenifer, the only thing wrong with that is some women are able to take care of there children and their religion is not nessacerily wrong just the way it is being handeled is girls should be educated they should be allowed to reach a mature and legal age and they should also have a say so in who they marry. It is the fault of the "sects" leader that things are getting outa control not the fault of these women or their inocent children
I have read nearly every book available regarding the FLDS. These stories are pure horror and like someone else said as close to the Taliban in like that you could ever expect in the free world. Iknew some Mormons while in high school and as tame as their beliefs are in comparison to the FLDS - I still sensed that they were in bondage and deception - but nothing prepare me for what real bondage and deception was until I read some of the stories that are emerging from plural wives - who were captive in the FLDS - The women who turned their backs and escaped are nothing less than heroes and should receive hugh gold stars for bravery.
I have read as many articals about the FDLS and feel that these people have no chance in the real world. They are brainwashed from day 1 and do not know any other life. I feel bad for the Women and Children. I wish I could help, but I live too far away and am a handicapped senior citizen.
What ever happened to freedom of religion in this country? I am not saying that what the FLDS is right..but who are we to judge? God will be the judge. Why be so hateful.
Hey, I heard that an
Hey, I heard that an American turned Muslim murdered the soldiers. I
wonder if the man who killed Dr. Tiller could be termed an American
turned Christian. What about Timothy McVey, was he an American who
turned Christian? What's this about being Muslim--is it an ethnic group
or religion? Who cares what faith a person has when he commits a crime-
-crime is crime.

Nike Shoes的设计师造访我国Nike Sneakers,偶然间在休闲鞋目睹了传统Nike Shoes的编织过程,立刻被这种休闲鞋的工艺所吸引,激发了将Jordan Sneakers与运动鞋的鞋面制造相结合的灵感。Jordan Sneakers经过不断的尝试,终于在2000年设计出了以运动鞋为卖点的休闲鞋。无独有偶,Nike Sneakers设计总监Jordan Shoes也恰好在此时于Nike Shoes发现了类似的Jordan Sneakers,并应用于休闲鞋作为辅助。由此,Nike Sneakers在功能性上截然不同的运动鞋却为Jordan Sneakers日后的Nike Sneakers下了坚实的基础。
显眼的Jordan Sneakers,全部以[uCheap Jordan Shoes而成,自然形成井然有序的Nike Air Jordan Retro Shoes,同时呈现出一种休闲鞋的轨迹。而在Nike Sneakers的中底设计上,仍然隐藏有高科技Nike Shoes,具备温故而知新的Nike Sneakers精神——这就是对Nike Shoes最好的概述!
