FLDS is trafficing young girls across international borders.
They are coupled with older men in 'spritual' marriages' which are arranged by their 'prophet'.
They become one of many sister-wives.
Once a child is born they apply to the govt. for social assistance.
The social assistance money is pooled into a 'trust' to be used communally.
Babies are buried without govt. oversight.
Schools (which are funded by the govt.) teach racism and do not adhere to standard curriculum.
The boys are used as free labour and are seen by older men as competition so they must leave the cult to make it on their own without adequate skills and training.
I hope the courts will finally act on this and make the leaders (including Winston Blackmore) accountable. These men have been allowed to victimize women and children for a very long time.
