I hope you're not suggesting that Jon Krakauer, the author of Under the Banner of Heaven, is ex-FLDS, because he is not. He is a well-respected journalist and author. Why don't you read the book? It was written in 2004, long before the recent raid on YFZ.
Saundra, if you're not going to believe the tons of evidence that exists about this group and its practices, why are you so quick to believe some unsubstantiated, very late claims about something that may have happened over 20 years ago? You're so quick to be suspicious about everything else, but not this. I sincerely question your abiity to reason and discern.
“tons of evidence that exists about this group and its practices”
That is not true. There is not “tons of evidence” against the FLDS. If there were, the terrorized children would not have been returned to their mothers.
