Criminal Probe into FLDS continues
/The teen girl was one of the children taken into state custody from the Zion Ranch. This is an excerpt from her diary:Warren Jeffs, the jailed leader of the nation's largest polygamist sect now under investigation for sex with underage girls, married off his own 15-year-old daughter to the 34-year-old son of his chief deputy, according to pictures, diaries and a marriage record obtained Friday by the Houston Chronicle.
In May, a series of similar scrapbook photos of young girls surfaced in court, showing very young girls in romantic kissing embraces with Jeffs, including a girl he married, who documents now indicate was 11 years old at the time.
"The Lord blessed me to go forward in marriage July 27, 2006, the day after I turned 15 years old."Next week the Texas Attorney General's Office will begin laying out a criminal case against the sect to grand jurors next week.
