I don't think this guy followed any "rules" other than the ones inside his own head.
Because this is Utah many are under the mistaken impression that he is a typical "fundy Mormon" (as they call themselves) but I have seen nothing to indicate this.
I think he was a cult of one, and I'm sure the "tenets" of his religion changed from day to day, on a whim.

OH, I agree Illbay, but that's precisely what I meant. Because he was so fringy he may have maintained certain rituals regarding and "outsider", even one he kidnapped. It's just a hope I have so that there is one thing less they will have to "fix" with this young lady.
I never considered him a fundy Mormon so I don't know where that came from. I have lived and interacted with many LDS families and have a number of close friends who are LDS. I don't have any notion that this guy is in anyway a kindred spirit of the LDS families I know.

Precisely what I was thinking. I wasn't surprised that he has once been LDS (it IS Utah...the majority of the population is or has been LDS), but based on the stories I'd read, the guy is absolutely certifiable. He wanders the streets in freaky robes and tells everyone he's a prophet while begging for change. There's folks like this in New York or any other major city...
