It's been nearly a decade since Warren Jeffs was arrested for the
transgressions he committed as head of the Mormon Fundamentalist
Church of Latter Day Saints, known as FLDS.
But the details of those transgressions have, up until now, not been
widely disseminated. Yes, many of us know about the plural marriages,
and the sex abuse—these details are abhorrent enough.
But there's much, much more to the story, including money laundering,
violent physical punishments, and operations that bore a greater
resemblance to a mob than to a church.
SAM BROWER is the private investigator who spent nearly a decade
investigating FLDS leader Warren Jeffs. He wrote about the
investigation in the New York Times best-seller "Prophet's Prey
[http://www.prophetsprey.com/]."
AMY BERG is the Academy Award-nominated director of "Prophet's Prey,"
the new documentary based on Sam Brower's book.
Brower and Berg join The Takeaway to discuss their harrowing
investigation into the FLDS. "Prophet's Prey" is in theaters today.
