Interesting piece. It’s hard to understand how they’ve gotten away with this for so many years.
Yes, it’s best to err on the side of caution, just keep it handy so you can refer to it easily.
Years ago, I think back in the 50’s, there was a raid on one of these cults. There was a lot of publicity about how “families were being torn apart”.
It created a lot of negative publicity, and from what I understand after that there was a “hands off” attitude from law enforcement for a while.
Over the years, though, the problems have become so blatant that people are finally insisting something be done. The regular Mormons are seem also tired of being tarred and feathered with this brush.
Several years ago one of these guys who was a leader killed a whole bunch of his adherents - not himself- had some of his more murderous wives do it for him. He ordered a bunch of murders from prison also. At least 10 people were killed, probably more. That also woke a few people up.
