"I will break you and I will train you to be a good wife," Rebecca Musser said Jeffs had told her, and then said he would marry her in a week. She left the FLDS before that happened.

Just wondering how she was able to escape.

There is an underground railroad of sorts for these women. Several who have left (or been ex’d) are still in contact with a few of the women. There is at least one woman who stays out of fear but helps others escape.

There are safe-houses in several states as well.

However, it is really hard for a woman to get their hands on a vehicle (if they can drive at all only a few of the older ones can) and even harder to leave with their children.

Most sneak out in the middle of the night, at risk of their lives, to a meeting area where they are picked up then delivered to a safe house.
