Former members of the polygamous Mormon cult led by Warren Jeffs have claimed that he is continuing to run the sect from behind bars.
Married couple Sam and Melissa appeared on a recent episode of the Cults To Consciousness podcast to discuss the Fundamentalist Latter Day Saints Church (FLDS).
Jeffs, who grew up outside of Salt Lake City, Utah, was sentenced to life in prison in 2011 after being convicted of sexual assaulting two children aged 12 and 15.But the duo have alleged that he is continuing to spread his ‘dangerous revelations’ to followers from behind bars.
Sam and Melissa sat down to discuss the current situation within the FLDS with hosts Shelise Ann Sola and Jonathan Rosales.
Jeffs’ father Rulon became the spiritual leader of the religious sect in 1986 and was considered a prophet of God.
But his son positioned himself as his successor before officially taking over as prophet following his father’s death in 2002.
He imposed strict control and initiated deplorable abuse before he was sentenced to life in prison in 2011 after being convicted of sexually assaulting two children.
But it is thought that the cult still has about 4,000 followers – half of which are ‘very loyal and devoted’ – who believe that the charges against Jeffs were ‘fabricated.’
