LET'S HOPE CPS AND CASA STOP ABUSING CHILDREN IN 2012

2011-12-22T09:34:00.000-05:00

The children of the Ranch have been free from CPS and CASA captivity now for well over three years and the scars still remain from their abuse, neglect, sexual rapes and medical neglect at the hands of those "Good people", the residents of Eldorado and San Angelo.

For those ghouls, it is quite normal for them to abuse children, after all, CPS reported long ago that one out of every six children living in the same County where the Ranch is located was a victim of abuse or neglect. Their girls are use to being sexually abused, there are OVER 336 girls registered in the San Angelo Independent School District for the 2011-2012 school year who are either pregnant or already have a baby (Or more).

So kidnapping children at gunpoint and raping them is merely par for the course for these Texass "Good old boys".

For the children of the Ranch however, it was a travesty that will stick with these particular children for the rest of their lives, as did the States persecution of their parents and grandparents for merely being Mormon.

The children and their parents are moving on with their lives, the Ranch population has very nearly doubled since the tanks and SWAT Teams rolled on them on April 3, 2008 While their "Neighbors" made plans to adopt out the children and see to it that they never practiced their religion again. In that, Texass failed miserably. All they accomplished was to reinforce the Truth; That their neighbors and those not of their Faith were evil, disgusting perverts. That learned lesson will be taught for generations of these Mormons to come and is the only real Legacy of the attempt to eradicate them and the religion they have chosen for themselves.

While the Ranch flourishes in the midst of a drought and the economic collapse of the system that propped up and supported the local vagrants drags them further and further into destitution, CPS and CASA in San Angelo has been busy trying to stay afloat while their own people steal every penny they can from the local children. It appears that not only are they screwing as many children as possible, but they seek to add to the children's pain and suffering by even resorting to stealing their Christmas presents. (And yet, people have the nerve to ask me why I call them vultures.)

The Ranch children were kidnapped, just as ALL children around the Country are kidnapped by CPS and CASA for the State and Federal dollars these children bring in on the foster "Care" and Adoption block. This fact couldn't have been made any clearer, than by reading the letter written to the hairball by Arrow Children and Families Services, when they complained of losing the Mormon children that were promised to them DURING the raid by the dykes of San Angelo CPS, CAC, CASA and the "Judge" herself. Fortunately for the children, there were people on Texass and around the Country who didn't approve of the childrens being raped and abused by the State, and we made damned sure the children were returned to their parents where they belonged in the first place.

While the Ranch children are now home and once again safe, the same cannot be said of the thousands of other children around the Country who are STILL being used for the State and Federal dollars that can be wrung from their misery.

For them, the Holiday Season that is now upon them looms bleak as the vultures gorge themselves to even greater obesity (If that's even possible given some of these bitches weight.).

Having been through the disgusting depravity that is CPS myself ; I completely understand what they are being dragged through. It is a mindset and a system we have not seen since Nazi Germany.

Having your children stolen from you and abused, neglected, raped and even killed is bad at any time of year, but during the Holidays, it adds bleach to the wounds, and the filthy bastards know it! While everyone around you walks around with smiles and good cheer, it stings you like sleet in a blizzard. Hearing the words "Merry" or "Happy" are actually painful. Seeing a Christmas tree or a Chanukah Bush makes you want to lay down and cry. But the worst of all is knowing you have NO ONE to call or write to to try to stop the madness because they are all off having a great time while your child languishes with some stranger, or worse.

Who can imagine a Christmas or Chanukah that is black, cold, and dark? A parent with a stolen child can!

The only gift I can give to any of those parents who are hurting out there is the gift of letting them know that what they are going through is understood, and that there are folks who are thinking of them and their children. If you need a sounding board, or just someone on the other end of the keyboard, I will be available from Christmas Eve through Christmas Day to let you know that you are NOT alone, and that people DO give a shit about what is going on.

Christmas is a very dangerous time for those of us who have had CPS and CASA enter into our lives. You need to realize that these ghouls would like nothing better than for you to make a very foolish decision. Don't play THEIR game! Don't make THEM happy! The LAST thing they want to hear when they return to their desk is the phone ringing with YOU on the other end.

It's EASY to get depressed about what they are doing to you, but remember, depression is anger turned inward. Take that anger and point it in the right direction; point it straight between their eyes and fight for your child like no one else can.

Stay strong,

Bill

THE TEXAS TWO STEP JUST ISN'T WORKING FOR THEM.

2011-09-05T20:25:00.000-04:00

Having been called every nasty name in the book for calling the kidnapping and rape of 465 Mormon children wrong by their Texas persecuters, I have no empathy for the situation these scumbags in Texas now find themselves in.

Just as the good old boys wanted to see even more pain and suffering heaped upon the children of the Ranch solely based upon the fact that they were Mormon, so do I waqnt to see more pain and suffering heaped upon their oppressors.

I pray Texas gets no rain. I pray Texas houses burn to the ground. I pray that EVERYTHING they wished upon the children and parents of the Ranch occurs to them, 10 FOLD.

They showed no pity, they showed no humanity, they showed no compassion, so why the FUCK should they even expect any for themselves?

I don't see what's happening to the vultures in San Angelo or Eldorado as a sign that Warren's pox on their houses is coming true, nor do I see it as a sign from God (Like some nutjob, whacko, Right Wing Conseravative asshole would), but as KARMA. You schmucks are so filled with hate and bigotry, you CREATE it. You love to destroy. You love to hate. So live with it!

THE MAKING OF A MARTYR

2011-08-30T09:49:00.000-04:00

It is certainly no secret that the government, both Federal and State. has decided it is going to find a "Final Solution" to the problem of polygamy in America.

Polygamy and Mormonism has been a threat to the government since it's very beginnings. To the government, Mormonism is a threat because those people just don't need (Or want) anybody to tell them what to do or how to live, and, like Communism, if folks start getting the idea that you can not only live, but thrive by acting and working as a cohesive unit rather than depend upon another "System", than that very systems existence is threatened and "They" must be eliminated.

The government has been TRYING to do that now for over 150 years concerning the Mormons. The latest Federal attempt was by The Speaker of the Senate, Harry Reid, when he conducted a farcical "Hearing" in Washington when he invited anyone with anything negative to say about Mormon's to the microphone, but forbade anyone with anything positive to say from the room. Hitler would be proud of Harry Reid.

Back in the 1800s, the government took a less tactful approach than Harry is currently using, and gave the Mormons on the reservation a choice; Follow OUR rules and regulations and depend upon US by becoming a State, or we let these Federal Troops here loose on your asses like we did to them stinking redskins.

Some Mormons accepted the governments kind offer to avoid genocide and rewrote their Bible to fit the new Washington Prophet's idea of their religion and a few did not, and here we are today:

The governments dilemma has been that NOTHING they have done to date has worked. They've killed them. They've sent them to prison. They've seized their land and property. They've sent other Mormon Sonderkommandos against them. They've stolen their children and tried to sell them. Still, they breed like rabbits and REFUSE to alter their way of practicing their religion. These guys are WORSE than those damned Indians! (And we all know how THAT turned out).

In 2004, the government came up with new brilliant idea, they would charge one of the Leaders with "Rape" for marrying off one of the girls of the community. Now SURELY once they convicted the dude with "Rape", the community would abandon him and start following the Great White Father in Washington...

It seemed all too easy. Getting a man convicted of a crime is a piece of cake in this Country, and so, First Utah, and then Arizona, came up to bat. Utah got to base first, and sent him to prison for life. Then, Arizona came to bat. Then things started falling apart; How do you send a guy to prison for a "Rape" that never happened? To this day, NOBODY has ever been convicted of "Raping" the girl who simply couldn't stay off her back. A new back-up plan HAD to be initiated because the Fed's knew that both Utah and Arizona had blown their chance at putting the dude away for them.

As most folks already know, if you want some patsy in prison, have him sit before a Texas "Judge", and the deed is done. NOBODY sends more folks to the big house than Texas, and it really doesn't matter if you're guilty of not, Texas is an equal opportunity bigot ready to send their own mother to the chair.

To the sheer delight of the Fed's, they also just happened to find a "Judge" squatting on the Bench in San Angelo, Texas which also just happens to be the home of the largest Klavern in the U.S. If you NEED a jury friendly to your case, what better place to find one?

Thus, the "Search" for "Sarah" afforded the grand opportunity to finally get this dude disgraced.

The plan has worked, and a few weeks ago, the Leader of the Mormons was sent to prison for 129 years. When he gets paroled, he'll be roughly 180 years old, and possibly no longer a threat to the government.

Now comes the problem: Plan A worked. They finally found a jury to send the guy away for awhile. However, Plan B has not worked.

Once the dude was sent to prison, the rest of the Mormons have not INSTANTLY sold him for 30 pieces of silver and become "Good" Mormons (Those who follow the Great Black Father in Washington). The rank and file have not thrown those stones and left the reservation as was planned. Now what the hell is the government going to do?

The goal from the gitgo is to destroy the Church these ~~Indians~~ Sorry, Mormons, belong to.Therefore, make the dude a Martyr to these gullible fools, and the public will allow the Fed's to disband these heathens, turn their kids into good Baptists, grab their land, and FINALLY be rid of them!

So how does one make someone a Martyr?

You can kill him in prison, either by a guard or an all too willing inmate, but the public might not like that if they found out you did that on purpose. However, if the dude "Kills himself", you might get away with it if you set the "Suicide" up correctly.

So, does he hang himself, or does he starve himself to death? If he hangs himself, the public might want to know why you gave him the rope to do it with. If he starves himself to death, they might want to know why you didn't simply have another hose party like Arizona did, and shovel stuff down the guys throat!

Well, public relations wise, the Arizona hose party didn't turn out all that well for them; the public heard the laugh track from the Sheriff and the AZ D.A. and didn't think it was funny.

So, Texas being the great humanitarians they want you to THINK they are, come up with the idea to make the dude a Martyr through medical technology.

This was the dude 3 short weeks ago:

Faster than you can say Auschwitz-Birkenau, this is the same dude one week later:

It kind of begs the question how the Germans were so inept at creating skeletons out of their victims. Maybe Texas Corrections can give them some pointers for the next time?

Today of course, the dude is in a medically induced coma in critical condition. I have to admit, I'm impressed with the speed at which they have put their plan into action.

Once he dies a Martyr, the Fed's can move in against the rest of the ~~tribe~~ Congregation, and EVERYBODY's happy!

Neat Plan huh?

A LETTER TO THE FAITHFUL OF THE F LDS CHURCH.

2011-08-19T14:12:00.000-04:00

Dear Brother Lyle Jeffs, and all FLDS, August 10, 2011
Please take this as a matter of life or death. This is a warning, as a brother and friend.
As a priesthood bearer, there is a responsibility to see to it there is no iniquity in the church, and to protect the virtue, and values of our church. You all have had five long years and numerous opportunities to clean this immoral mess up, and you have not!
You refused to take the directives and confessions after Warren Jeffs was stopped in 2006, that he acknowledged his perverted, immoral behavior and cover up. In January 2007, you refused to take his confession, that men that held Priesthood were sent away unjustly and they needed reunited with their families and loved ones, and you failed your moral test again. Warren Jeffs confessed that he usurped his authority, and he was not ordained the prophet and never was, and asked you and others to turn to the one that was legitimately called, that of William E. Jessop, and asked that men sent away to return and take their place. You and “others" refused to come clean before the Lord and the people, and started usurping authority to yourselves.
You condoned the immorality by your failure to accept once again the terrible deeds that were done, by believing you can sit in the halls of the court and turn off the evidence and deny the abominations of Warren Jeffs, once again showing a willingness to let men go to prison, bringing on the wrath of God in the form of raids against our lands, children and loved ones, leaving the saints to suffer under terrible evils, deceptions and corruption, and continuing to cover it up, lying repeatedly to the people, bringing one plague after another to the people, removing love, replacing it with name calling, causing fear and hate to those who knew and accepted the truth, in an all-out sabotage of the truth.
Stop dear brother as we did, and turn to Heavenly Father for the truth and salvation, and He will help us and the saints that need the father of truth instead of this deadly deception of evil. Please turn to the first two commandments with all your heart. We tell you as brethren, no one has the right to cover up immoral conduct, no matter who you think they are if they are involved in evil and wrongdoing. The Lord is no respecter of persons!
This is our opportunity to come clean, for the Lord said He will not be mocked, or you are going down with the wicked and be damned. I love you and ask the Lord to help us to come clean before Him and be counted among His people that are the honest and pure in heart.
We are at peace, leaving judgment in the hands of God. As you can see for yourself, He is very capable.
Sincerely,
William Edson Jessop
William Roy Jessop

Dear Internal Revenue Service:

As you may recall, I wrote to you several times on this matter, and have asked that you look into the fraudulent activities concerning BOTH of the above named entities.

As you you MAY know, The Director of the CAC, Mrs. Mike Brown, has been Indicted by a Federal Grand Jury for embezzling in excess of $250,000.00 of CAC funds. The indictment indicates that this amount of embezzlement took place between 2005 and 20010. Mrs. Brown has been the Director of the CAC since 1994. There remains an as yet unaccounted for period of behavior of some 12 years on her part.

It also leaves un-answered the question of Mrs. Brown and her husband paying taxes on the amounts embezzled. I would suggest they did NOT, and that their personal finances were co-mingled, thereby indicating evasion of taxes due on BOTH their parts. The amount of funds in question leaves that conclusion inescapable.

As I explained in my letter of April 2, 2011 Mrs. Brown did not enjoy the fruits of her ill gotten gains alone, she was cheerfully joined by members of her staff of BOTH the CAC and CASA, Directed by one Shirley Davis. I continue to believe that an Audit of CASA funds is warranted, given the fact that the Director of CASA joined with Mrs. Brown on her junkets, and HAD to know that the agency's funds were being used illegally. In addition, the "Rewards" received by these staff and friends of Mrs. Brown were HIGHLY unlikely to have been declared on their own individual Income Tax Returns as Taxable income.

The question of Tax evasion and theft is no longer disputed. The only question is; How extensive was the theft and who was involved. We look to you to answer these questions and put an end to the misuse of public funds in BOTH agencies.

Thank you,

THE FEDS ARE ONLY CHARGING DEBBIE BROWN WITH STEALING A QUARTER OF A MILLION.

2011-08-12T18:47:00.000-04:00

This is today's story out of Klan Kountry in San Angelo, Texas. As always, the story is riddled with bullshit, but I have a knack for cutting threw it, so read between the lines and you have the FULL story:

SAN ANGELO, Texas — After a four-month investigation by the FBI and Texas Rangers, a federal grand jury indicted former Children's Advocacy Center Executive Director Debra Brown on six counts of theft involving programs that received federal funds.
(The Texas Rangers would not touch this case with "Judge" Brown's hands, let alone their own. The REFUSED to get involved, and left it ALL to the Fed's)

The indictment, filed Wednesday with U.S. Attorney James T. Jacks of the Northern District of Texas, alleges Brown "embezzled, stole or obtained by fraud" almost a quarter of a million dollars from the center.

An indictment is an accusation by a federal grand jury, and a defendant is entitled to the presumption of innocence unless proven guilty.
(Strange; I have NEVER seen these words written by this paper regarding any OTHER indictment of a person, so why now for "Judge" Brown's wife?)

Heather Ward, who replaced Brown as executive director of the Children's Advocacy Center, said when she first heard the amount — weeks before the indictment came out — she was shocked.
(She heard this figure "Weeks before the indictment came out". That explains why she said NOTHING while debbie testified in Court last week as a "Respected member" of the community, and the former Director of CAC. Does Heather think a crook who steals a quarter of a million bucks from a childrens "Charity" has any credibility? Obviously, in San Angelo, debbie is most probably one of its more stellar citizens.)

She said the staff has cooperated fully with authorities and considered the case out of the center's hands as soon as investigators picked it up.
(debbie steals a quarter of a million bucks (Officially), and nobody around her has a clue?)

"This has been difficult for all of us," Ward said in a text message Thursday. "She was our boss and we respected what we saw her do on behalf of children. We never suspected this."
(Which is why the staff took Vegas junkets on CAC credit cards and never suspected the children were paying for it).

Despite the indictment, the center's commitment to serving children will continue to be the priority, she said.
"EXACTLY what "Continued commitment" to serving the children" would that be? The Director was stealing the childrens money hand over fist, and "Nobody" knew it!)

"I think not only the indictment, but everything we've gone through as far as staff changes and implementations of new procedures and new grants, we're finally coming out of this," Ward said. "It feels like there's a lot of closure."
(I wonder if Heather was on her knee's when she said this? She's not looking for "Closure", she looking for more stonewalling from everybody in hopes this shit goes away without the Feds coming for them, too.)

According to a statement released by the Department of Justice Thursday, Brown is expected to surrender to authorities within the next few weeks.
(Do you REALLY expect a Texas "Judges" wife to be seen in a perp walk in cuffs?)

Kathy Colvin, spokeswoman for the U.S. Attorney in Dallas, said that means a time will be set up for her to appear in court. Defendants charged with white-collar crimes generally have an arraignment set up without being detained.
(NAME SOMEONE under Federal Indictment who is "Invited" to turn themselves in.)

Brown, 51, served as executive director of the Children's Advocacy Center of Tom Green County for 16 years.
(Which FULLY explains why the Feds only took her thefts back to 2005.)

She resigned in February following the board's decision to put her on administrative paid leave.
(The reporters nose is growing. She was on paid Administrative leave for 6 weeks before she resigned, with Heather KNOWING that an audit showed she stole $66,000.00 of the childrens money.)

An audit performed by a private forensic auditor initially estimated losses of $66,000. The audit covered a period of two years.
(Heather knew about the 66 grand, and said NOTHING about it for almost 3 months.)

The U.S. Attorney's Office declined to comment on how many years its investigation spanned.

The indictment alleges that during the period from January 2005 through Dec. 31, 2010, Brown stole approximately $237,013 from the CAC.
(And prior to that, from 1994 until December, 2004, debbie was as honest as the day is long. One day in January, 2005, debbie woke up and realized the kids money actually belonged to her?)

The center's budget last year was $964,230.
(You mean debbies budget, right?)

"She submitted and processed fictitious reimbursement forms for items she supposedly purchased for CAC, or one of its programs, and for supposed CAC-related expenses, including travel expenses she and others incurred," according to a news release from the U.S. Attorney's Office.
("She and others"... Yes, every single damsal in the CASA office of San Angelo was in on the skam, they didn't have any money to buy the kids Christmas pesents, but they could all hop on planes for junkets to Vegas on the CAC and CASA dime.)

"She caused CAC checks to be issued to her without any supporting documentation and either deposited the checks into her personal checking account, cashed them or submitted them as payment on her personal credit card accounts."
(And during all this "Causing", the Board of Directors and the accountants were all enjoying a circle jerk?)

Brown is the wife of Tom Green County Judge Mike Brown. Reached on his cellphone Thursday, Mike Brown said he was in Odessa and had not heard about the indictment. He declined to comment on the case.
(Heather Ward hears about the amount (Weeks before the indictment" but debbies "Judge" husband is clueless about the whole thing? Gee, now THAT's a credible denial.)

No attorney was listed for Brown, according to an online docket sheet.

No one answered calls made Thursday afternoon to the Browns' residence in San Angelo.

The CAC is a nonprofit program that provides services to abused and neglected children in the Concho Valley.
(The CAC is a nonprofit program that makes debbie brown rich and allows her friends to jump on the bandwagon.)

It offers parenting and outreach classes to families.
(It extorts families to pay for "Therapy" and "Services" to favored, profit making, companies or the families face the loss of their children.)

It's made up of four programs — Court Appointed Special Advocates, Hope House, Family Enrichment Services and Child Fatality Review Team.
(All of which receive their own individual funding IN ADDITION to the funding received by the CAC. They are ALL INDIVIDUAL 501 (c) (3) charities receiving monies from the Feds, EACH with their own budgets EXACLY like the one pilfered by debbie.)

Prosecutors said the U.S. government is "a significant source" of the CAC's grant funding through the Department of Justice and the Department of Health and Human Services.
(Which explains why my initial complaint of her thefts over 2 years ago went to the I.R.S. in Utah.)

Some of the grants are distributed through state offices and agencies.
(Graft and theft in Texas is the norm, so that explains why the Texas Rangers wanted NOTHING to do with her case.)

If Brown is convicted, each count carries a maximum statutory sentence of 10 years in prison and a $250,000 fine, the statement said.
(She is a Texas "Judges" wife. Anyone who thinks she will get a prison sentence of 60 years and a $1,500.000.00 Fine needs a lobotomy. She will get a suspended sentence and have to "Repay" the government at the rate of $100.00 per month, or some other such foolishness. The I.R.S. won't even go after her for evading taxes for the money she and her pals stole.)

Restitution also could be ordered.
(Santa Claus could be real.)

The case is being investigated by the FBI and the Texas Rangers.
(Want to buy a bridge?)

Assistant U.S. Attorney Ann C. Roberts of the U.S. Attorney's Office in Lubbock is in charge of the prosecution.
(Who knows "Judge" Brown HOW WELL?)

According to the indictment, "Brown, an agent of the CAC, embezzled, stole, obtained by fraud, and otherwise without authority converted to her own use" more than a quarter of a million dollars under the control of the CAC. "Brown obtained those funds through the issuance of approximately 71 checks, all of which were cosigned by her."

The indictment alleges that each year from 2005 through 2010, Brown embezzled at least $5,000 that was under the control of the CAC.
(Do the math: 6 X 5 =s $30,000.00 So, where's the rest of the $207,013.00)

Colvin said after Brown surrenders to authorities she will appear before a magistrate judge who will make sure she's aware of the charges, ask if she has an attorney or if she needs one appointed.
(I hope its not too stressful for debbie.)

At that point the prosecutors may or may not ask for Brown to be detained.
(A "Texas "Judges" wife? Are you NUTS?)

Monty Stanley, former CAC spokesman and human resources director at the San Angelo Standard-Times, said in a statement that he hasn't given the case much thought since the day the board members turned over the investigation to federal authorities.
(This dude was on the Board of Directors of a charity for children that had a quarter of a million bucks either stolen from under his nose, or with his blessings, and he "Didn't give it a thought"? WHAT exactly does this schmuck think warrants his time and attention?)

"I have faith in the justice system," he said.
(Read between the lines again: He knows the "System" will protect the good old boys of the community, and fuck everybody else.)

"The real story here," he said, "is the dedicated staff and volunteers" of the CAC who "put their personal opinions and desires aside and continued their difficult work of providing needed services to the community's children and their families.
(A better translation; "The staff is wringing its tits off to maintain the "System" and make this thing go away so that we can continue to bleed this cash cow.")

"Their heroic personal commitment to their jobs is like nothing I've ever seen."
(They steal children from families for fun and profit; what is "Heroic" about that? If they weren't stealing other peoples children to be raised as "Good Baptists", they would be flipping burgers for a living.)

Ward said she appreciated the support shown for the CAC.
"This is an unfortunate event for our entire community," Ward said. "We have taken the steps necessary to ensure this never occurs again by implementing policies and procedures that cannot be circumvented."
(Have you checked with the rest of the girls on those junkets before you make that claim? Now that the damsils KNOW that their trips were paid for by the childrens stolen funds, do they intend to reimburse the children? What say you Shirley Davis?

Speaking of Shirley... You are in charge of the budget for CASA of Tom Green County, Inc. (Employer ID 75-2169081). What's the likelihood that you picked up a few budgetary "Tricks" from your pal debbie? Or did you let her do all the stealing, while you merely "Reaped" the rewards? When you went to Vegas, was it First Class? You didn't really have to sit in the back of the plane did you?

Power Tends to Corrupt, and Absolute Power Corrupts Absolutely.

Not that they needed it, but the Jury in the Trial of WSJ was whipped into a sexual frenzy with them being given the green light of letting their imaginations run rampant by the "Special" Persecutor, and it took them just 3 hours to relieve their pent-up sexual fantasies in a bathroom stall and then find Warren "Guilty" of their lust.

The verdict was virtually assured from the moment the Mormons moved into town in 2004 and took away the local's legal availability of their own children as their bed warmers. From day one of the Mormons move-in, the drumbeat of persecution and voyeurism never ceased, and then the booksellers and pole dancers came to town and further titillated the fantasies of the local morons with stories of dead boy babies being buried on the Ranch in the dark of night and Ritual Sacrifice and cremations of tender young virgins going on behind those "Walls". It made for great sexual fantasies and made at least one of the obese morons rich selling his rag in Eldorado. It also sold the books of the pole dancers and desert bunnies.

Being found guilty of a "Crime" in Texas is as assured as finding a large group of good old boys standing around the local San Angelo and Eldorado Elementary and Junior High schools leering at the "Cheerleaders" doing splits and hopefully catching a glimpse of the girls underpants. There's a good reason why there were 325 little girls with babies or pregnant last year registered in school, but to hear the locals tell the story, all them girls were put on their backs by the "Randy" boys in school, (Those aged 14 or under). No respectable good old boy would take a little girl to bed, which fully explains why they had to change the Law in Texas to stop them Mormons from bedding their booty in 2005.

In Texas, it's the lifelong dream or their "Judges" to become the next Judge Roy Bean. It's the lifelong dream of all Texas Sheriffs to become the next Joe Arpaio. It's the lifelong dream of the Texas Rangers to become the next J. Edgar Hoover, and it's the lifelong dream of all Texas prosecutors to become the next Mike Nyfong. This recipe explains precisely why Texas leads the entire Nation in convictions that are over-turned on Appeal. A "Judge" like barbie is clueless that Judge Roy Bean was a despot. Doran is clueless that Arpaio is a megalomaniac. The Rangers don't want to hear it when they are told that Hoover was a cross- dressing pansie. Texas prosecutors are in a leage all by themselves, even when it is proven beyong a shadow of a doubt that they killed an innocent man (Willingham), they consider it "Harmless error". Compared to them, Nyfong is Clarence Darrow.

The good old boys like to blast me for "Defending" Warren Jeffs. Their problem is that that they CANNOT post ONE instance where I defended the actions of Warren Jeffs. They can post PLENTY of instances where I said he was going to be found guilty, I even bet money on it. He was going to be found guilty from day one, the rest of the men were going to be found guilty from day one, so why bother to carry on the charade of these silly old "Trials"?

It was a joke; as silly as the raid was to "Find Sarah". If Leslie and Doran actually believed there ever was a "Sarah", they need to get an award; "Most Gullible Assholes in Town". I can't imagine that ANYONE would feel safe in their home knowing that what stood between them and the barrel of a snipers rifle was the "Investigative abilities" of either of those two incompetent schmucks.

All that aside, Warren will now be sentenced to prison for 99 years (Taking bets, don't be bashful), and the F LDS Church has no choice but to figure out how they got to where they are now:

TO BE SURE, a great deal of the responsibility lays at the feet of the booksellers, the Quorum of the 12, Dan Fisher, the State governments of Utah, Arizona and Texas, and even the Federal government of Harry Reid and the LDS membership within those agencies, especially the F.B.I. Mormon Mafia (Google it).

But ultimately, the real cause of the situation the Church finds itself in today is in abandoning the system of Governance from a Quorum to an individual. I happen to think I'm a pretty nice guy, but the fact of the matter is, like a barbie, you give me unlimited power and I'm going to become one great big asshole. It's human nature.

Placing all that responsibility on one persons shoulders is in fact, irresponsible; not only to the Church, but to that person. Replacing Warren with another single leader, answerable to no one but himself, is flat out foolish. Further, it will give the dreck who would destroy the Church and its People, the necessary "Reason" to pull another raid. They are actively looking for an excuse to throw ALL the adults in prison and to "Save" the children by converting them to their version of a "Proper" Christian upbringing (Read that as Baptist). Now I ask you, would you allow your dog to be brought up as a Southern Christian Baptist?

The real Leadership of the F LDS Church, its Elders and the Women of the Church, need to step up to the plate and declare that they want and need responsible Leadership from a representative Quorum of Elders, chosen by the membership, not in some secret meeting held by anonymous individuals. The Work, the Trust and the rearing of the children needs to be brought out into the open and those stupid walls torn down.

Were I a member of the F LDS Church, I would be PROUD to be a member. I would be proud of the way my children were raised, and I would be proud of my community.

The FACT of the matter is that NOBODY can stop you from living as any REAL Mormon should be living, and as the LDS themselves openly pray for. The ONLY difference between a Fundamentalist Mormon and the SLC crowd is that you are not hypocrites.

I don't see a better opportunity than right now to step out of the shadows and from behind those walls and DEMAND that you be entitled to the same freedoms afforded every other religion in this Country. Your children deserve nothing less.

Your future, your childrens future, and the Churches future are now in your hands. In the past, the process of determining your future was closed to you. It will remain closed ONLY if you allow it to be.

San Angelo tries to coverup another travesty.

First, a local Judges wife, Debbie Brown steals $66,000.00 from a local childrens charity she ran, and now a "Trial" is going on in this shithole and the papers are openly participating in the persecution of their hated Mormon's who have dared to move into "Their" town.

Rather than pretend they are "Reporting" the news, they accept the party line of the local "Judge", hook line and sinker and report NO "News" to the contrary.

All the local white trash in town naturally wants to hang the Mormons. The Mormons are a threat to them because now they can no longer legally screw all the little girls they wish to. Things have slowed down so much, that the local schools are down to a mere 325 little girls who are either pregnant or already have a baby or two. By Texas standards, that's a pitifully small number of 11 to 16 year olds being made mommies.

Not wishing to rock the boat, the local media won't print the truth, but since I have no interest in nailing a teen or two, here is my comment they refuse to print:

in response to Barney:
Your just wasting your time.These scumbags that defend Jeff's and the other child rapist will never answer a direct question.Medvecky can't post a decent question either.I believe JulieW is someone that is living at the YFZ ranch.It really doesn't matter though.The FLDS are totally exposed now,and those that had questions at first now know the truth.Even if somehow Warren were to walk away a free man,the damage is done.

In response to Scumbag Barney, I'm sure the picture itself will be good enough for the jury, but we do have to remember it's a Texas jury. You boys looked at the picture and could somehow see his tongue down her throat. That makes for a great sexual fantasy, but HARDLY enough proof beyond a reasonable doubt that the tape depicted a "Rape" of anyone.

And THEN we have the pesky problem of the girl being in CPS custody and undergoing a SANE exam. Let's not forget, she was one of the girls who was supposed to be "Pregnant". Not only was she not pregnant, to CPS and CASAs GREAT dismay, she was found to have an intact hymen.

Now if Warren sports a 1 inch penis, your fantasy may STILL be a viable one, but I have to imagine that Johnie Hanna has given Warren enough "Cavity Searches" to not only satisfy his sexual cravings, but knows that Warren has a schmuck slightly longer than that.

As y'all know, ALL the children were given SANE exams in Captivity INCLUDING BOTH girls. Are we surprised that the Doctor who gave Veda her exam testified, and that Merrianne's Doctor was no where to be seen? Not in the slightest. Veda's Doctor helped to prove Veda gave birth to a child. On the other hand, Merrianne's Nurse (R.N.) proved that Merrianne was still intact in April, 2008.

Now I KNOW you boys ain't too bright, but if the Medical Records PROVE she was a virgin in 2008, your fantasies are nothing more than wasted seed spilled onto the ground.

By the way, withholding exculpatory evidence may be honkey dory in barbies court, but the Bar frowns upon it...BIGTIME when it becomes public in open Court. Nichols's rotund pal is going to have a LOT of explaining to do when barbie is caught with her knickers down.

AN OPEN LETTER TO THE F LDS CHURCH

2011-07-28T08:28:00.001-04:00

To my Friends in the F LDS Church:

It would be REALLY irksome to me if, after this is all over, I heard the rank and file of the Church say that, "We didn't understand what was happening in the media, and we didn't know the power they have".

BY THE HOUR, you have every talking head on just about every single channel out there actively working to destroy the Church. They OPENLY are saying that "This is not just a case of this one evil man, Warren Jeff's, it's a system that is abusing and destroying these children." It is a deliberately coordinated shark attack by a business that feeds off human misery and suffering, and the more, the better. When they add the gasoline of "Child Sex Abuse" to the bonfire, their ratings and the sale of their papers and books goes through the roof.

Today, there is a public ORGY of "Outrage" out there, and they are ALL using your children to satisfy their sexual fantasies concerning your children. They CANNOT hear enough "Gruesome" details about what is going on in the children's lives, and they simply don't want to be bored with hearing that the children are doing just fine. There's NO sexual satisfaction for them in THAT kind of story.

The knuckleheads sitting in front of their TVs are watching a PARADE of dreck relating "Lost Boys", "Waterboarding", "Incest" and "Sexual abuse of young girls" (With video of girls from 6 to 14 working on the Ranch in the garden, or playing in the Creek in the background).

I see Merrianne's picture AT LEAST once every 15 minutes.

When they sit there looking at these children, they don't see them turning pitchforks and riding bikes, they envision them in bed with them. THAT"S what they are being told is happening! Quite literally, the media is whipping the public into a masturbatory frenzy over the images of YOUR CHILDREN in innocent poses and everyday activity. You can practically watch the talking heads drooling as they describe their fantasies concerning you and your children. And from you; they hear nothing, so it MUST be true! That kind of nonsense is what brought the tank and the snipers to the Ranch in the first place!

The Church is being irrevocably destroyed. The option of "Answering them nothing" is destroying it.It's LONG past time to stick a sock in Nancy Disgrace's mouth and shove it in.

The NEXT move, is going to be the "White Knight" of the government stepping in and systematically disbanding the entire thing "Due to the outrage of the public". This "Outrage" is a manufactured commodity, it is doing EXACTLY what it was intended to do by these same people, which is to disband the Church and scatter it to the wind. You give them License to do that by your silence.

By remaining silent, by allowing these assholes to define you, you are walking yourselves and your children into the ovens. Barbie tried once to sell them all to the Baptists, this time, it will stick.

If that's the plan; if you are DEAD DETERMINED to become Martyrs, then at least let the children's hands go so that they don't become a part of a suicide pact they aren't capable of understanding.

Your children deserve more than to be used by the booksellers and media for the gratification of the public's voyeuristic interests. Let the public start drooling over their own children if that is what they are determined to do.

ARIZONA'S PLANS TO "ENFORCE" THE FLDS

2011-07-20T16:13:00.000-04:00

In 2008, the Arizona and Utah goons decided they would put together an "Enforcers" list of people in the FLDS who just might "Bring harm" to the "Judge" in the case, a gimp named barbie.

The list was largely laughed at by all concerned, including the media who published it. The list contained "Proof" of the dangerous nature of the "Enforcers" who allegedly "Stared" or "Glared" at folks, or seemed "Too interested" in the goings on of the goons. The list was a joke, but the goons were deadly serious in presenting it to their fellow Texas goons who naturally took it quite serious. The machine guns and bullet proof vests came out, as did the cop cars sitting in front of the gimps house at;

5425 Bent Oak Ct.,
San Angelo, TX 76904-8726

Telephone: 325-944-9958

A map to her home, and a satellite view of her home is available on Google.

Those who wish to see how a "Poor Texas Judge" lives can drive by at any time, it is an open, public road.

As it turns out, the list was one more plan by the goons, both State and Federal, to attempt to infiltrate and discredit the religion in the hopes of destroying it by clandestine activity.

Both the Washington County, Utah goons, and the Mohave County, Arizona goons have been trying to locate a "Mole" or put a plant into the community for years. Currently, even the Fed's have joined the act, using the Mormon Mafia of the F.B.I. (Google it) in Salt Lake City to try to find a way to get a plant into the group.

This is a two way street:

Some friends have supplied us with some information on the goons activities, and have been kind enough to share it with me.

Thanks to the goons in Texas, Utah and Arizona, we know what their list looks like; this is what OUR list looks like, in part. There is MUCH more, so stick around, as they play their goon games, we will follow along.

Dear Merrianne,

This little note is to tell you that there are so many people who very much love you and care what
happens to you.
You are always in our prays, and we know that Heavenly Father looks after you, one of His children.
He will keep you safe and well and the happy times will return to you we pray.
Thinking of you every single day,

It is difficult to know what would be comforting not having been in your situation. I Will try. Please
remember there are on the outside who care about you. We want you to return home. Justice moves
slowly. It arrives in due time. Don’t ever give up! Don’t ever give up!

Dear Merrianne,
Heaven bless you in this experience. You are a shining example to all of us. We are praying for

your quick return to the arms of those that love you. Take courage, Heavenly Father loves you!

Gail Steed
Colorado City, Az
Aug 25, 2008

Dear Merrianne,
Heavenly Father loves you very much. He saw that you could be an example to the world along with
our Prophet. What a blessing.
We love you and pray for you along with our Prophet.
Keep your prayers up as we unite our prayers with yours to Heaven for your deliverance.
God hears and answers prayers. You will be delivered in His time and way.
Smile and keep encouraged...We love you.

Dear Merrianne,
Keep Smiling, my heart goes out to you in this time of trial.

Aug 25, 2008

My Dearest Friend Marrianne,
Though I am a few years older than you I can only imagine what a test this would be.Your a very
strong girl.
Though this time is hard for you to bear,
and the people around you seem like they don't care,
Heavenly Father is near to watch from above.
He will help you and send his perfect love
To keep you safe and guide you aright
and watch over you both day and night.
He will always be there to see you through, take courage my friend We all love you!

Val Jessop

Aug 25, 2008

Dearest and most precious Merrianne:

Heavenly Father chose YOU to walk this lonely and rough path because HE knows your strength and
devotion, and HE knows You will reflect the teachings of your loving parents and most importantly,
the training and example of our Holy Prophet.
We watched you cry and we cried. We know how hard it was for your Mother to let you go into the
hands of insesitive people who don't even know what they're doing. We know your Father's heart
aches for your release from prison, but know this, thousands upon thousands of your friends are
sending up constant prayers in your behalf. We love You.

Al Holm

Aug 25, 2008

Dear Merrianne,

I sure hope and pray that our Father in Heaven will strengthen you under your great load. It is a
GREAT BIG LOAD, so my prayers are GREAT BIG!

Dear sister, you are capable of whatever He wants you to go through, but you cannot do it without
Him. O stay strong! Stay Strong! Pray with All the energy of your heart, and CRY to heavenly
FATHER!

Show those people that you are a light, a candle light, you are like Joseph who was sold into Egypt.
Show them what a pure and lovely lady is like. Be an example of Zion to all who are around you!
You will be home again, you will be in Zion, but take the good lessons from whatever you are
required to do, and leave all the bad alone. Take these rotten lemons, and make up some yummy
lemonade! You are loved! SMILE ANYWAY!

A friend,
Al Holm

You don't know us, but we want you to know even strangers are praying for you. How brave you
have been even though grown up judges and social workers have behaved like shameful bullies. Our
mother has read us so many articles about this situation, and we think everyone ought to know. Don't
let them get to you. We have a different religion but we support you in your own faith. Be strong.
We hope you will be home with your mother and brothers very soon!

Chai Tea
Aug 26, 2008

Dear Merrianne,

Thinking of you and praying for you many times throughout the day. So many people care about
you!

I don't know if you know the song "Trust His Heart" but it's been running through my mind about
your situation. Here's just a bit of it:

"All things work for our good
though sometimes we can’t see how they could.
Struggles that break our hearts in two
sometimes blind us to the truth.

God is too wise to be mistaken.
God is too good to be unkind.
So when you don’t understand,
when you don’t see His plan,
When you can’t trace His hand, trust His heart."

from "Trust His Heart" Written by: Babbie Mason and Eddie Carswell

With loving, prayerful thoughts for you and your family....

Chai

Dear Merrianne.
You are very brave and amired by many people. You don't deserve to be there, its very unfair. Hold
on cause justice he to come. We all wish you could be near your loved ones but we all know where
your heart is right? You don't know me but still I will pray for you every day.
With love

There are many troubles that will burst like bubbles,
There are many shadows that will disappear;
When you learn to meet them, with a smile to greet them,
For a smile is better than a frown or tear.

Tho' the world forsake you, joy will overtake you,
Hope will soon awake you, if you smile today;
Don't parade your sorrow, wait until tomorrow,
For your joy and hope will drive the clouds away.

When the clouds are raining, don't begin complaining,
What the earth is gaining should not make you sad;
Do not be a fretter, smiling is much better,
And a smile will help to make the whole world glad.

You can smile when you can't say a word,
You can smile when you cannot be heard;
You can smile when it's cloudy or fair,
You can smile anytime, anywhere.

Our prayers are with you, and we know that Heavenly Father will send angels to comfort and protect
you.

Dorothy Holm
Colorado City
Aug 26, 2008

How blessed we are to experience such love from our Heavenly Father and our Earthly Parents.
Heavenly Father had such trust in you, he chose you to be an example, a light upon a hill for the
whole world to see. I am so grateful to know your wonderful parents, I know their heart bleeds
without you. Our Prayers are for your protection. We know Heavenly Father sees and knows all
things and will reward to all accordingly.
Heaven bless you. Love always, Dorothy

Teresa Jeffs

Aug 26, 2008

Merrianne,

I just thought I would tell you that we all think about you so much and look forward to the day
when we can see you again!

Be strong through it all... and remember that Heavenly Father is seeing what we are all made of.
If I could I would come stay there with you until you can get out because I know just a little of how

you feel! When I was at High Sky my sweet attorney was looking into making me have to stay in
state custody alone for a little longer. The thought made me sick and almost made me go out of my
mind.

I want you to know that we all love you and are missing you so very much!
Heaven bless you! Be determind in the right!

Thank you...

~ Your friend,
Teresa Jeffs

Josephine Jeffs

Merrianne,

We are all missing you very much and are doing what we can to get you out of there. We are
always thinking of you and praying the Lord to give you the strength to stand through this
experience. I hope to see you soon in a better place. Stay encouraged and know you are never
forgotten.

Love ya!

Your Friend,
-Josephine

Courage sister, do not stumble;
Though thy path seems dark as night.
There's a star to guide the humble.
Trust in Heavenly Father and [pray that our enemies will] do what's right!

Thank you for showing the world what true courage is. We all think more than the world of you and
know that legions of angels surround you no matter where you are. Nothing on earth can stop them
from visiting with you. Just know that thousands upon thousands of prayers are reaching our Father
Above in your behalf.

Merrianne,
I thought I would like to share a song with you that I wrote for my mother. I know you must feel
the same way about yours. Here it is:

Mother What I've Seen in You

Father sent me here to earth to live a clean life.
He knew that I would need a guide to plant my foot steps through the years, so he sent me to you.
Mother, what I’ve seen in you is what I yearn to be with Fathers help, and living His ways.
You have shown me through the years the way that I should be,
Turning me to my Father and living for the prophet and Zion.
Mother, how can I express my gratitude for you?
Father in the Heavens has blessed you with all that you could need to teach and train me.

Mother, what I’ve seen in you:
Loving, and giving,
Showing me daily the way I should live to be worthy of the blessings of our Savior.
Living dutiful and selfless through love,
You’ve shown me the way I must be to live in Zion on earth.

Father in Heaven,
Thank you for this mother!
Thank you for guiding her.

Oh, Mother what I’ve seen in you is what I yearn to be,
Living for the prophet,
Turning me to him,
Abiding the Celestial law,
Living as a Sarah.

Mother, what I’ve seen in you...

Merrianne, we realize what you are going through. We think of you often. Take courage. Don't give
up. We are doing all we can to help you get back to your mother. Prayer works. We look forward to
seeing you back in the arms of your mother. Stay encouraged. Smile! :)

Love,
Michelle L. Chatwin

How dark these days must be for you! How I hope and pray that soon the sun will break through and
shine upon you radiantly.
It is through trials and tribulations that our faith is strengthened and purified, being more precious

than gold. Heavenly Father knows best, and He does love us.
Be strong and let your light shine for all to see.
You are in my prayers.
In Christ,

Hey sis,
Just thinking about you again, and hoping you are keeping cheered!
Well I want to say I know how you feel, but I DON'T! Cry as hard as you want, as long as you want,

but when you are done, SMILE BIGGER!
Bless you Josephanne in Egypt!

Dearest Merrianne,

Another new day is dawning and you are one day closer to being returned home.

I see Al has mentioned Joseph in Egypt a couple times and that is a good comparison. Remember
that others (his brothers) meant selling him to Egypt for harm, but God meant it for good and it did
turn out for good for ALL His people.

Along with that was a little girl who was renamed Esther in her captivity -God placed her as queen
to a king 'for such a time as this.' Your people are in as dire straits as were the people of Israel...and
God had years before placed a young girl in a position of 'training' so she would be able to help when
the need arose.

Not everyone is trusted with such a hard and deep testing of their faith -God knows the gems that
will shine from the polishing -and He knows the purpose He has for them who endure. Remember
Revelation and the things that are promised to those who 'endure to the end.'

Keep your faith; focus on His love for you and His people

Remember especially that you are NEVER forgotten and ALWAYS loved

God bless you dear little sister in Christ.

Chai

I cried along with you. I have been there when I was just eight years old.
I was with all my brothers and sisters though.
I feel to encourage you with the fact that you have a good mother 'like I had' that is

obedient to the right people and because of this you will return in due time 'we did'.
We never ever doubted our mother's words, we
knew she was right.
Blessings to you,and I will continue to pray for you.

I would just like to let you know that we are thinking about you and praying for you. You are a
courageous young lady, and must have been blessed with a very strong spirit and testimony, for the
Lord does not ask us to do anything save He prepares the way. I know He is watching over you, and
He will answer our Prophet's prayers for you, and ours in connection. Hold on to your faith, you are
very loved, I know your dear Father and Mothers quite well, and I know they will be doing all they
can for you. I would like to meet you someday, and give you a big hug in person, but until then
consider yourself hugged from a mother who is yearning for your freedom. Remember you are very
loved and prayed for.

Oh, how greatly you are missed! I think about you all the time and pray that you will be kept clean

I have come to know you quite well, and you are a really sweet girl. You sure seemed to put up
under all the pressure alot better than I did. I just don't know if I could handle being taken again, let
alone all by myself. Thank you for your marvelous example. Did you know the letter you wrote to
your mother was put on our website? I dare say it brought alot of tears.
Shaun always talks about you. He asks where you are and wonders if you are still sad.(He watched
the video of when you were taken.) He wants to see you so much.
We all miss you so very much and look forward to seeing you again--with your loving mother!

Him. May your burdens be made light and easy to bear until you are with those you love again. Trust

Dearest Merrianne,

For you the time goes so very slowly, but for those working to see you home once again, there are

not enough hours in the day to do the task.

Be strong in the knowledge that not one minute of the day goes by without so many people, from one
end of this world to the other, who are working to return you to the family fold.
Heavenly Father brought his 465 lost lambs back home, and he will once again return you back

home, this we know and pray.
Be strong, be brave and turn your tears into a smile knowing how much you are loved and blessed.

Dear Merrianne,

My heart goes out to you as I think of you alone in a foster home and unable to have any contact with
anyone that you love so much. It tears a healing sore wide open again. I was sent to a foster home
just 24 hours after the delivery of my little Johnathan, as I am sure you well remember. Oh, I just
know what you feel like--hungry, but only hungry for those you love! Alone, with altogether to much
time to ponder on the aweful reality of your situation! Yes, wonderful foster parents, but oh, the
heartache that just won't go away! Remember that this is a wonderful time to get close to your loving
Heavenly Father. He is a Friend that nobody, ABSOLUTELY NOBODY can take away from you.
He was my only comfort and strength during those hard days of recovery without any loved ones that
I needed so desperately. He will see you through. We know this for a fact. You are earning a great
reward that will make up for all the horrible experiences you are having now.

Thank you for your sweet example. I tried to get over to see you before you left, but did
not make it. I wanted to let you give the little boys a hug. But we just know that it won't be long.

WE send you our love. You are in our prayers. Remember that everyone is doing everything in their
power that they possibly can do to see you free again! May heaven bless you with the strength to

endure to the end.

With much heart felt love and yearning,
Pam & co.

Sweet Merrianne,

I just wanted to pop in and tell you that I am still thinking about you and praying for you. I look for
updates usually all day long on 'Grandpa' Bill's site and the FLDS site. I was so relieved to see that
you got to write your mother -you describe her beautifully. Keep all the memories close to you and
it will make your time there easier and you will soon be home with her and your father and siblings.
I so wish that I could give you a great big hug and tell you everything will be okay, so here it goes
((((everything will work out and be okay)))).

Lots of Love to You and Your Family

fourth grade. I sure think a lot of you and admire the sweetness of your character.

Mother feels very tender to you and is praying for you. We love you and miss you. Is there
aanything we can send to you? Would you like a loaf of homemade bread or anything we can make
for you? We would love to do anything for you at this very tender and intense time.

Please email us back to let us know what sounds good to eat and we will do all we can to get it to
you.

Dear little sister in Christ,

God bless you this day in a special way. May you know that you are loved, loved, loved by Him and
by your family.
You are in the thoughts of others and that we are holding you up DAILY, sometimes HOURLY,

before the throne of God, seeking His special blessing upon you, your mother and father, and your
brothers, sisters, and extended family.

May these trials turn you to the Word of God, our source of comfort in times of trail.
God gave me Psalm 18:30 at the time of my husband's death in a car accident -"As for God, His way
is perfect..."

Even in the hard times, God's way is perfect. You are the gold in His refiner's fire -I know He
already sees His face in you -and now others are seeing Him, too.
God bless you moment by moment.

Merrianne,

I am the mother of twins near your age--one daughter, one son. Like you and your mother, my
daughter and I are extremely close, so I understand very much how you miss Mother.

But be heartened and keep praying. Like "Grandpa Bill" and all the others have said
here--everything possible is being done to see to it you are returned home to your loving mother,
brothers and sisters and family.

Don't worry about your trouble making Aunt Carolyn. God is certanly going to have a word with
her and it won't be kind. I sure wouldn't want to be her, would you?? ;)

On the other hand, Heavenly Father is reaching down now and wrapping his loving arms around you
and holding you tight. He wipes away those tears that fall without warning when you feel so sad.
Know that He can fix any problem--no problem is too big for Him.

Trust in the our Heavenly Father and know He loves you. He will never leave you alone to face your
troubles, He will be with you every step of the way.

Think of what a joyous day it will be when you finally go home to your family!!! I am counting on
it and will be celebrating here so many hundreds of miles away with my children when that day
comes!

You are loved Merrianne. Isn't it amazing that even strangers you've never met like me and my
family love you and pray for your release every day??

Be strong little one...your homecoming will be soon!

Love,
Jeny and family

Our prayers go out for you, and the cuase of Zion.

Oh, how I love you dear child and pray for you. Yes I am a total stranger to you but I am a mother
of 6 and I know a mother's love for her children and a child's love for their mother. It is a bond given
to us by our Heavenly Father and can never be broken. Please be strong as this terrible mess is
worked out and you can return to your mother's arms where you so belong. So many prayers rise up
for you every day and mine are among them.Have faith and soon you will be home.

I'm the mother of 7 children-six sweet girls and one dear boy, and I wept when I saw the video of
CPS taking you away.
I am so sorry for all you have been through. I wish life in this world were not so hard sometimes,
and it is always especially hard to see children suffer. I am praying for you to be strong, to be wise,
and to be comforted by the presence of God.
I find the book of Hebrews and the book of Psalms bring much comfort and assurance during
difficult times.

Dear Merrianne,

Another day is ending and my thoughts have been on you and your time in captivity. I am praying
that soon this time will be just a bad memory and you will be reunited with those who love you and
miss you so dearly.

May God continue to be your source of strength, encouragement, and comfort. I am praying that
God will put people with love in their hearts in positions of authority and that evil will be removed
from the system that has placed you in this position.

Continue to be strong in your love of God and love of your parents and family. God's love never
falters, and neither does your family's.

There are so many Bible verses that speak of God's watchcare over His children and His people. I
hope they are at least allowing you to have a Bible so that you can read again how much God loves
you. Blueletterbible.org is a good online source.

Here's a couple favorite verses of mine:

Isaiah 26:3-4 You will keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on You, because he trusts
in You. Trust in the Lord forever,
For in Yah, the Lord, is everlasting strength.

Zephaniah 3:17 -The Lord your God in your midst, the Mighty One, will save; He will rejoice over
you with gladness, He will quiet you with His love, He will rejoice over you with singing."

WE rejoice over what a beautiful young woman you are and we continue to pray daily for your
deliverance.

God bless you and give you peace.

Lovingly, Chai

Merrianne;

I have a daughter your age and oh what I would give to have her married right. There is still a

lot of immorality going on among the young people in Short Creek. And it is quite disturbing to me.
You are like Joseph sold into Egypt. That wicked woman could not even get him to look at her. I
know and believe that you have had that same kind of training and you are a grand example of virtue
and purity. I know cause I know your Father very well. I realize that you already understand way
more than people even writhing you realize. You are a shining light and the young people are
watching you. I know that you will always be a grand example for them. What more could this old
guy say. I went to the army when I was young and believe me it was a moral test to the max. Uncle
Roy said, go and serve your country but don't partake of the sins of the world. I will always
remember those words. Clean every whit is what he always said. You and I know that it can be
done.

With respect and Honor for Who you are. XGI

Stay strong. Listen to the still small voice inside you telling you what to do. Even though you are
away from your family and loved ones, you still have God and your faith. Cling to that, let the
burning ember of faith grow, and all will be well.

It seems the entire world by now knows that a girl was put back into foster care, and that was you.
I'm sure you will be treated well for that. Hang on. There's a light at the end of the tunnel. Stay close
to God, read your Bible, and anything that makes you feel more at home. God Bless and keep you
safe. -J

tears, and keep reminding yourself that everything happens for a reason.

Dear Merrianne,

Another day dawning...another day to rejoice and be glad in -in spite of circumstances that may
cause the tears to flow and our hearts to ache. It is a day that God has meant for praising Him in
spite of our circumstances, because regardless of what the day holds, God is ALWAYS, ALWAYS
good!

It is easy to sing in the daylight hours, but many of David's Psalms that bring us comfort were written
during the blackest hours of his life -written out of a feeling of abandonment by his friends, his
families, and once, even his God. But God never abandoned him, nor will He abandon You. For
whatever reason, God has chosen you to be a beacon to strangers in a 'strange land.'

May you SHINE as Esther did. (Esther means "Star")

Here's a little quote for you: "The abundant life does not come to those who have had a lot of
obstacles removed from their path by others. It develops from within and is rooted in strong mental
and moral fiber." --William Mather Lewis

I wish we could hear from you to know that you are 'okay.' I wish so many things were different for
you.

With loving, prayerful thoughts,

Dear Merrianne,

I wish I knew why you were being tested so sharply, but I'm just not smart enough to have the
answers.

I once had a little boy who was put in the same position you are in now and on a field trip, he snuck
away and was lost in a cave for 3 days in pitch blackness.

Like your Mother and your Father, I was forbidden to look for him and take him home, he was in
foster care until I could prove that I was a good caretaker to him.

No one knew where he had gone, and not until one of his teacher's remembered that he had talked
to a friend of his about the cave, did a search team go out and look for him in that cave.

He was saved, and he did come back to my home, and I asked him if he was afraid in the black cave.
"No, I thought about you and I talked to Heavenly Father and I knew I would come back to you
again." He told me with a smile on his face.

You WILL be back home where you belong and you WILL be with your Mother and your Father.
Keep your smile, Heavenly Father is watching over you as He watched over all the children of the
Ranch, and you will be happy once again.

You are deeply loved,

"Grandpa" Bill

You don't know me, and I don't know you, but I know your father (a little), and 2 of your sisters
were my teachers when I went to Alta Academy, and if you're anything like them (and I have reasons
to believe you are in some ways at least), then maybe I do know you after all even if it's not
personally. You see, I used to live at the Crick, but because I refused to live the way we've been
taught, I am now somewhere else. I hope though, that I can be worthy to go somewhere besides
where I now am, and perhaps meet you someday, for you are a grand example to me and I thank you
for it. I just want to say keep encouraged, Heavenly Father will see you and all of us through if we
will trust in Him. He will not give us more than we can bear, but only that which will help purify

us and help us appreciate more His goodness. Keep encouraged, girl, and know we are all praying
for you and your family, and everyone (you know who I mean, I'm sure). Thanx again for your good
example. I hope I can be faithful like you.

Dear Merrianne,

Mere words can not frame the prayers my soul pours out for you. What a grand mission you have
been called and chosen to! From Isaiah 48:10 "I have chosen thee in the furnace of affliction."

Like Job, you have been given a test surpassing ordinary tests. Like Job, you have been trained in
the ways of Heavenly Father. Like Job, you will be blessed greatly for faithfulness to the end. God
keeps his promises to His obedient children. He speaks to us in Isaiah 49:25: "But thus saith the
Lord, Even the captives of the mighty shall be taken away, and the prey of the terrible shall be
delivered; for I will contend with him that contendeth with thee, and I will save thy children."

Teens everywhere are enjoined to stand for something, anything...you already do. Stand strong.
What you are, no one can take from you. No one can lessen or sever your ties to our Eternal Father.
Others from afar will come to recognize that although housed in mortal clay of just fourteen years
earthly experience, your spirit immortal is pure, sweet, strong, and mature. Turn to Heavenly Father,
our Best Friend.

My oldest daughter is about two years younger than you and is such a support and delight. I know
that you are cherished as much in your family and pray your restoration to your parents will be very
soon.

God Speed The Right!

Love, Ruth E. Barlow

Extending a thought your way...it's late, but I felt like sending a note of remembrance. I grew up
with Paula (I'm three days younger), knew others of your dearest ones from home quite well,
especially Maggie. She actually was the one who first taught me to sing a part other than the melody
(I LOVE to sing tenor). So if you'll excuse my saying so I feel like I know you somewhat. Keep on
Keeping on. Maintain the power within yourself to encourage yourself. Lots of love and prayers
from us to you and your family. Even the little ones lisp their concerns to Heaven for you.

Though Deepening Trials Throng Your Way, Press On!

Dearest Merrianne,

I have been reading of the continued injustice against you and it causes such sadness. Yet, I am
reminded of the story of Joseph who was sold into slavery -how his brothers meant it for evil, but
God USED it for GOOD.

I am also reminded of Daniel and his friends who were taken as captive to Babylon -how they must
have wept and longed for their families because they were also young teens, forced away from their
families -chosen, as it were, to suffer for their God.

Even with the governments against them -Joseph, Daniel, Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego -they
could not destroy them. Yes, they tried to hurt them -but lions' mouths were closed, and the fiery
furnace, rather than consuming them, revealed to the rest of the world -the fourth figure -The Savior
walking with them in the midst of the flames.

HOLD FAST to that which you believe. The world will try to strip it from you. The world LIES
(as you well know!) and wants to convert you to its values and morals. Keep pure, Merrianne -don't
listen to their lies. Remember who you are and Trust in the One who walks with you in the flames,
and who shuts the lions' mouths.

God bless you and keep you from all harm. May He put a shield around you.

With loving thoughts and prayers,
Chai

and may He stop the mouths of the lions again in our day. "Ye fearful saints, fresh courage take, the
clouds ye so much dread/ Are big with mercy and shall break/ With blessings on your head."

Know This, That Every Soul Is Free....

Dear Merrianne,
You and I don't know each other, but I have been following this whole "story" and wanted to say
hello to you.
I'm pretty old, so I have had the opportunity to learn many lessons in this life. One that I learned later
than I would have liked, is to look for the "silver lining" in everything.
Perhaps the silver lining for you in all of this is to be able to show outsiders that all the stories about
your church and it's people are so wrong. Let them see what a wonderful, kind, softhearted person
you are. And let them know that the reason you are such a wonderful young woman is the people
who raised you and love you, gave you the tools to be this way.
And another silver lining is the opportunity for you to make some new friends. Everyone in the
outside world isn't bad. And because you are smart and have been given good tools for making sound
judgments, you will be able to tell who good people are. And adding friends to your life is always
good.
I love meeting new people and having new experiences and every once in awhile, one of the people
I meet turn out to be lifelong friends. Because I am old, I now feel so blessed to have had the
opportunity to add some wonderful people into my life, through all sorts of ways of meeting them.
Make the best of every situation. Always look for the silver lining. Stay strong and kind and that will
always shine around you.
You are in our prayers and good wishes as is your family.
I hope you have some wonderful joy each and every day of your life!
Sincerely,
Regina

Hello Merrianne!

I just got on the computer and thought of you. I just thought I would send a hello to you from
afar. Stand strong sister, Heavenly Father hears and sees all things and will yet answer the prayers

of the faithful. I love you and you are always in my prayers.
I thought of you when I listened to this song:
Although we are called to pass through things of pain and strife, and the enemy of righteousness

shall see to take our lives. Though all the powers of hell combine to turn us from the truth, we know
the Lord is over all and He will see us though! :)
With all my love, Mandie

It's an honor to continue to pray for WSJ, and in that prayer is a prayer that His prayers will be
answered, and I'm quite sure that He is praying for you!! That's a grand feeling isn't it? Well, have
a wonderful day, keep your chin up and a smile on, and soon it will all be over, and if we can endure
to the end then we will gain our hopes. The Lord has all things in hand, for just a moment evil thinks
it's winning, but a loving and kind Father is watching over us, and soon will intervene the
establishment of His kingdom upon the earth. May He hasten the day according to the Prophets
prayers.

To my dear friend,
Howdy! I sure have been missin' you! I pray for you every day. I surely do look up to you
sis! I hope you know very well that you are missed tonight and every night.
Autty talkes about you all the time and tonight at the blessing she said about 3 times in her
prayer, "Bless Merrianne to get delivered out of captivity." She sure misses you.

Do you remember that beautiful picture you sent to me the night you were taken away? I put it for
my front screen on my phone. Autty saw it and started hugging it. Then she just looked at it and
wouldn't give it back. So...remember dear friend that we love you all.

Did you get that letter that I wrote to you a week or so ago? I sent it with your mother at a visit.
I wanted to hop in her pocket and come see you. Because I couldn't I just sent my love and a great
big hug.

Every day I think about you and wish I could do something for you. Please reply when you have
time and tell me what i can do for you. I remember when I saw you just after we were returned home,
that hug you gave me is still in my heart... but I promise that when I see you again it will be even
bigger!

Stay encouraged and I pray that our Loving Father will keep you clean and pure, in the hollow of
His hand until you are home again.
Heaven Bless you and in Heavenly Father's time and way may you be delivered, and we know it
will be soon!
EVERYONE sends their love. Thank you for your sweet example, and hold on!
I Love you! Love your 5th grade school mate and friend,

D & C Section 101

11: Mine indignation is soon to be poured out without measure upon all nations; and this will I do
when the cup of their iniquity is full.
12: And in that day all who are found upon the watch-tower, or in other words, all mine Israel, shall
be saved.
13: And they that have been scattered shall be gathered.
14: And all they who have mourned shall be comforted.
15: And all they who have given their lives for my name shall be crowned.
16: Therefore let your hearts be comforted concerning Zion; for all flesh is in mine hands; be still
and know that I am God.

17: Zion shall not be moved out of her place, not withstanding her children are scattered.
18: They that remain, and are pure in heart, shall return, and come to their inheritances, they and their
children, with songs of everlasting joy, to build up the waste places of Zion-
You are in my prayers.

Dear Merrianne,

I just want you to know that you are still in my thoughts and prayers every day. You are the same age
as my granddaughter and I try to imagine what she would feel like if she were in your shoes.

I hope and pray that you are well and that Heavenly Father is comforting and strengthening you. I
know he is aware of you and loves you.

I find the words to this hymn very comforting when I feel lost and alone. I hope they will comfort
you as well.

"Fear not, I am with thee; oh, be not dismayed,
For I am thy God and will still give thee aid.
I’ll strengthen thee, help thee, and cause thee to stand,
Upheld by my righteous, omnipotent hand.

When through the deep waters I call thee to go,
The rivers of sorrow shall not thee o’erflow,
For I will be with thee, thy troubles to bless,
And sanctify to thee thy deepest distress.

When through fiery trials thy pathway shall lie,
My grace, all sufficient, shall be thy supply.

May your burdens be light.

Sincerely,

Kathy G.

As Children of Zion our voices well raise
In songs of rejoicing, thanksgiving and praise;
We're tested and tried,As mortals will be,
And Zion,Zion,Zion is growing

In song shall our Father and God be adored,
For he in his mercy the gospel restored;
And we in our youth can vouch for its truth,
For Zion,Zion,Zion is growing

We hope to prove faithful to God and his laws,
And aid the advancement of
Zions great cause;
For therein is joy,Which none can destroy
Thus Zion,Zion,Zion is growing

All praise to our Father,
his Priesthood and pow'r
And thanks for his blessings
he on us doth show'r
Where by we progress as onward we press,
While Zion,Zion,Zion is growing

keep singing and smiling!

Hey Merrianne,

I know that the days are not any better now than when you were first taken from your mother, and
I know that they will never be right until you are home again. I just want to say, I think you are a
great example for the right, for all the world wants you to deny your heritage and your religion, but
we know better than they do! Yet a good cry is good for you too, just don't let the blues keep you
down, serve God by serving all you can!

A song I learned:

"You're in a better place, I've heard a thousand times
And at least a thousand times I've rejoiced for you
But the reason why I'm broken, the reason why I cry
Is how long must I wait to be with you

I close my eyes and I see your face
If home's where my heart is then I'm out of place
O Father give me strength to make it through somehow
I've never been more homesick than now

Help me Lord cause I don't understand your ways
The reason why I wonder if I'll ever know
But, even if you showed me, the hurt would be the same
Cause I'm still here so far away from home

I close my eyes and I see your face
If home's where my heart is then I'm out of place
Lord, won't you give me strength to make it through somehow
Because I've never been more homesick than now"

How is every little thing in your cubicle? I know with your training, you are staying encouraged and
staying at the good work as Father always showed us how to do and with Heavenly Father's sweet
love, you are keeping on!
Sure love you and pray for you always. I am grateful for the good example you are setting for those
who you are with. I know they are being blessed by your being there for a time. Stay at the good
work and just know that thousands of prayers are being offered up in your behalf. Heavenly Father
would not have required this mission of you if He did not have implicit confidence that you could
"go and do the thing which the Lord hath commanded, for the Lord giveth no commandment unto
the children of men, save he prepareth a way for them to accomplish the thing which he commandeth
them."
Thanks for your sweet smiles. They are like a bright ray of sunshine in the darkest of nights. All my

It is such a joy to be writing to you again. These times are quite amazing aren't they, but they sure
are a good experience for each of us and to help our testimonies grow stronger in the Lord.

I so remember the last time I saw your sparkling bright smile covering your tear filled eyes, as you
went back into the hands of the wolves. You were so strong and full of faith, knowing Heavenly
Father would bring you back home. Our prayers are always exerted for you, that you will soon be
delivered. Heavenly Father is going to work miracles and get us out of this mess. According to our
faith so shall the blessings be. Heavenly Father is blessing us each one so much, and He will fight
our battles as we turn to Him.

I look forward to the time when we can see your bright smiles again. Heaven Bless you. I will
always love you for who you are. Good night!

with love,

I did see your tears as you was torn from your Mother. I did cry to see this. How well I know the

sound of a door closing behind you, and other's taking away all your freedoms; trying to force you
to be different than who you are. I pray you hold very tight to the Love you have for your Mother.
How sweet and beautiful that is. what ever the reason, the Lord will give you streanth. Streanth to
smile and when it is over, walk away and go home. how sweet is the sound. Walk away and go
home. They are waiting for you.

CPS took children from their safe nest,
Terror entered young mimds who lost a home,
Thus evil entered while peace was at rest
And scatterd innocent children to roam.
Mir'cle occured at applellate level,
Children returned to loving Mother's arms.
Judge Walther was the CPS devil,
Who sent poor Merrianne to the cruel arms.
Sad Merrianne Jessop spends nights alone
Held as hostage by souless goons from state
Of CPS, who act as mindless clone,
Only the just are considered as great.
Justice comes slowly to the patient ones,

The police came in armed to the utmost,
Prepared to quash all threats from those at peace.
No one could say they could not take that post,
They wanted the FLDS to cease.
Good Angie Voss came to save the children,
By destroying the home in which they lived.
She came in behind rifle toting men,
Found love and peace, became very livid.
The pied piper took the children to camp,
With Mothers at the Fort Concho prison.
The shade of hate shattered the brightest lamp

And children were scattered by Texas Sun.
They struggled onward with the heavy strain
Placed on their weary souls by Texas bain.

Father, your friends and family, and all of us that you don't even know who are still praying for you.

I hope you have things to do to keep your mind busy when you feel lonely and I hope you are being
treated with respect and kindness.

Here is another hymn that helps me when adversity strikes.

"Lean on my ample arm,
O thou depressed!
And I will bid the storm
Cease in thy breast.
Whate’er thy lot may be
On life’s complaining sea,
If thou wilt come to me,
Thou shalt have rest."

I'll continue to pray that you will soon be free and back with those you love.

God be with you.

Hello Merrianne!

There are some of us that have worked daily doing what we know how to, though limited, to prevent
what has gone on in your case. Hoping it will never happen to others or our own families.
You can ask Sam and others about the efforts we've made. The efforts seem like so little when

compared to the battle you stand up against.

Always remember they can't control your thoughts. Keep those thoughts centered on happiness all
the time.
Stay strong, we're all watching those that took you. We will never take our eyes off of them.

Hello Marrianne, I have Hope, and Pray you will be delivered Soon. It is if we would exert enough
Faith and prayers unto our Lord and Savior you and our Prophet would be released. The reason the
Prophet is in Prison is Because of me, He is buying repentance time for me.
I pray for you ever night i go to sleep, and ever morning I rise. I would for anyone in your position.
You are a Shining Example to me.
Remember our Prophet is Praying for you and many many more People. I don't know how limited
you are in Reading letters but I will sent you a note of encouragement, or some event I think you
would like to hear about. There again I am not sure if you will even read This letter. I believe it will
make it to you some how. :)
You can always smile. I have to say that to myself a little to often. :)
Carry on in the good work. Have A good day, or Night what ever comes next.

My prayers are that you will be able to be re united with him and all those you hold dear and love.
Stay strong

Merrianne,

May God Bless His Prophet, and His people as they go through tests of fire. May He bless you.
I rejoice in the example you are setting, and am working to be prepared more quickly so you wont
have to continue suffering because of my slowness.

I Look forward to meeting you. And it will probably be with tears of joy.
Keep encouraged!

Dear Merrianne,

I want you to know that you are still in my thoughts and prayers every day.

I read something yesterday that I believe and I wanted to share it with you in the hopes that you will
feel comforted and encouraged by it.

"Remember the sublime words of the Savior to the Prophet Joseph Smith when he suffered with his
companions in the smothering darkness of Liberty Jail: 'My son, peace be unto thy soul; thine
adversity and thine afflictions shall be but a small moment; And then, if thou endure it well, God
shall exalt thee on high; thou shalt triumph over all thy foes.'

With that eternal perspective, Joseph took comfort from these words, and so can we."

I also was thinking about Alma and his people who were forbidden to pray by their captors. They
didn't let that stop them from praying, but continued to pray in their hearts. Their silent prayers were
still heard and I know yours will be too.

God be with you, Merrianne. I pray you will be back with those you love very soon.

Best,
Kathy

Dearest Merrianne,

If mere words could convey the love and support that people feel for you, that I feel for you, than you
will sleep well tonight knowing that a minute of the day does not go by without people praying for
your speedy return home to mother, father and your entire family.

People from Canada, Mexico, Germany, The Netherlands, Spain and from every State in the Union
yearn to know that you are well and that you are safe.

When mother tells you that many people wish nothing but the very best for you, she has the proof
in letters that one day, you will be free to read.

We pray for that day and we know that Heavenly Father will not only release the Prophet, but
Merrianne Jessop Jeff's as well.

Keep well, keep strong, keep sweet.

I have a daughter your age, and we cried together when we watched the video of you being taken into
custody again. You're a special missionary, Merrianne. Heavenly Father hand-picked you to shine
His light in a darkened world. It's a huge responsibility on your young shoulders, but He chose you
because He has confidence in you. Thank-you for your example of sweet submission and trust in
our Father in Heaven. We're praying for you, and for our Prophet. We love you and we love the
values and principles that you've been taught to live. We're proud of you!
Heaven bless you and keep you safe, and bring you back to the loving arms of your family.

Dear Merrianne,

Our thoughts and prayers continue with you this and every day, yearning in our weak way to be the
strength and support that our Prophet and our Lord and Savior need in this time. Knowing the
pressures of this day through revelation, Jesus asked would there be any faith left when He would
return. He sees yours and I am sure has already accepted of your offering on the altar of faith in
Christ our Lord and Leader. May Heaven bless you as you continue on in your chosen path in your
heart though your feet have been forced to stray in the wilderness.

Zion's Light Is Shining Bright In You!

Love to All.

Merrianne,

How are you doing? I know you will be with your loving mother and father and sweet brothers and
sisters very soon. Heavenly Father gave us this test for you to stand stong, for me to pray and exert
faith. I know you are praying and I need to pray more. You are very special in Heavenly Father's
eyes. Stand firm. You are helping to roll that stone forth. We are all Heavenly Father's children.
He said he is jealous of His workmanship.
Let's together keep our prayers fervent and exert more faith. I can only guess at your loneliness for
home. Once my parents were gone on a trip for two weeks and that was a long time for me. I missed
them so much.
May God keep you in the hollow of His hand. You will be home again soon I pray.

Hi Merrianne!
Just want you to know we are thinking of you and hope all is well with you and yearn very much you
will be delivered soon as well as our beloved prophet and head, Uncle Warren. I know Heavenly
Father sees all and is watching all and every event He has us go through is for our own good and to
see what others will do, to prove the hearts of those in this nation and of the world. The words of the
Prophets will be fulfilled and what the world does or says isn't going to hinder the Lord in His great
work. They have put the best man in jail and are trying to crush us and it may seem they are doing
a good job of it but with Heavenly Fathers help we will stay true to Priesthood and to God and be
worthy to see our Father in Heaven again. Stay encouraged and remember the best man in the world
is praying for you and loves us all. zion will go on and is being redeemed in our hearts first and then
all around. Smile! I look up to you and admire you. Heaven bless you!
Love you!

Dearest Merrianne,

The thoughts and prayers of my family go out to you in the hope that your return to your parents will
be very soon.
No days go by that people do not ask me how you have been, and I tell them what your fine mother

has told me.

I was once put through the trials you and your parents are now going through. and my way of coping
with time was to pick a subject that I really did not like very well in school and study it very hard.
I was not a better speller when my trial was over, but it sure made time fly a lot faster!
I pray heavenly Father protects and keeps you

strong in your Faith, it's worth can be measured in how hard apostates wish to take it from you.
We all love and pray for you,

My Dear Merrianne,

I read recently a bit of history written by Grandmother Margaret Jessop concerning her experiences
in the 1953 Raid on Short Creek, and I couldn't help thinking of your present situation in connection
with it. What a great burden our very dear mothers, fathers, and grandparents endured for the sake
of the Gospel of Christ.

A great portion of that burden now rests upon you and me and all those who have chosen to follow
our Savior with our prophet today. I pray that you will be always encouraged. Your experiences are
a foundation of faith for others. Keep your light shining bright!

Brightly Beams Our Father's Mercy...

Merrianne you and I have never met.But I have been thinking of you very often --What can I say that
has not been already said much better than I could write--So I am going to tell you about my dogs
You can look up the breed they are Newfoundlanders--very well known as the hero dogs--they are
big my male is 187 lbs and is still growing--my female in only 162 --We call the female Chum and
the male Champ--registered names Gentle Mountain and Black Mountain--Chum carries her name
very well she is always in /water like a salmon and she is very loyal and more gentle than the
whisper of the wind on a summer morning Champ is a true Champion is all he does he is the
best--digging holes in my flower garden-leaving fur all over my house finding rock and putting them
at the front door so I can fall over them
will continue tomorrow --at least I have something to write and you have something to smile about
and I guarantee you they will be in some mischief that will bring a smile to your pretty face. if you
can google Newfoundland dogs Take very good care of yourself Edith from Canada

Dear Merrianne.
I hope you are doing fine. I just wanted to say hello again, and tell you I have been praying for you.
I know there is justice and I know you will be back with your loved ones too..
I will also tell you something different. I have 3 kids. Yona is 9 years old, she is a girl, Josh is 5 years
old, he is a boy, and Dafna is 2 and a half years old and she is a girl. They go to the hebrew school
here in Monterrey. They had this most beautiful activity at school, you see, we celebrate hanukkah,
and its like our december party!! So we light one candle every night for 8 nights.... so well, my kids
had to do a very special deed for one kid they "adopted" for the holidays at school. and each day they
took different things, they took a new toy, a used one too, a book to read, colors, play dough, a book
to paint, a special note, cookies, and a juice!! and they had to do this one thing per day. And then the
final day was yesterday. They came home so happy, the kids went to their school, they sang and
celebrated together. They where so happy, they said they loved to give and give.... And I love to see
that smile on their face when they do good to others. Life is beautiful............
I will tell you more tomorrow! ;-)

Hello, Dear Merriannie,

As I am writing this little note, I am remembering your twinkly blue eyes and your sweet innocent
face and your refreshing red hair! I smile with the faith and expectation that you are doing well and
holding strong. Tests can seem long and severe, can't they? But after the storm, the sun comes out
again, and the air is cleaner and purer because of the rain. When I have had excruciating times, I
have thought of what Father Merril has often said, "Did you ever think that getting depressed and
discouraged would solve the problem? No! Just get up off your duff and go get busy!" That's what
I expect you are doing, and may I do the same.

Just thinking of Father's twinkly eyes and ready wit and his unbeatable, unconquerable Spirit helps

me to face my challenges and just keep on going for the Gold! I thank Heavenly Father for holding
you in the hollow of His hand and providing protection for you during this amazing experience. I
thank Him for your example of sweet endurance and submission to His will, just as our Prophet is
doing. We both know there is a wonderful day coming, not far off, when the Lord will come out of
His hiding place, and all wrongs will be made right.

You know what they say, "Good things cometh to those who waiteth, as long as those who waiteth
worketh like @#%$ while they wait." Happy working!!

With love and blessings,
Your sister, Maggie

unimportant.
I am in TX as well. During this cold weather I tend to hibernate as much as possible.

We were once neighbors! Our family thinks and prays often for your release from those who have
you in captivity. We pray that Heavenly Father will soften the hearts of those who have you in their
care, and that we can exert the faith through our Prophet to draw forth both you and him from
captivity. I know it will happen! The darkest hour is right before the dawn. The Lord sees the big
picture, and we are mostly privileged to see just a sliver, as though looking through the gaps in a
picket fence. Thank Heavenly Father for a Prophet to show us the way back into His presence. With
love and high regard to you and your loving family. Dennis Darger Family

Dear Merrianne,

Although I do not know you, your plight has touched my heart, and I wanted to let you know that
you have the good wishes and prayers of many different people all around the world.

I have been following your story, and I have seen your mother, doing her best to help you, battling
through her own tears to try to do what needs to be done to help you. I am a mother myself, and I
know that all mothers love their children. Your mothers love and devotion for you, however, shines
out of her eyes and heart. Even through a television or computer screen thousands of miles away I
can see what a special bond you share with her. You may not feel very lucky right now, but you are
so lucky to have a family who are so devoted to you.

Please know that there are thousands of people around the world who are appalled at what is being
done to you. The people doing this to you are the minority -anyone who looks can see that you and
your family are good people.

I think of you and pray for you -and hold my daughter just a little bit tighter when I kiss her
goodnight.

I hope your ordeal is soon over and you are back where you belong, with your family, at the
threshold of your adult life with all things possible spread out before you, your whole life to be lived
in the way YOU choose, not in the way a court or social worker tells you is the approved way.

I know when you are a teenager it is harder to see the big picture -that the next few weeks can seem
like the rest of your life. I am only 27 myself, it wasn't that long ago. But please know that soon you
will be able to look back at this as only a tiny fraction of your life.

I sincerely hope that this will count as all your trials in this life and you move past it to have a calm
life, full of peace and love and happiness.

Stay strong. The world cares, your country cares, the community cares, your church cares, your
family cares, and most of all, your mother cares and is devoted to helping you.

I hope a letter from a stranger can help, or at the very least divert you.

thoughts of Him and the experiences in His life make me feel to praise God for Him and for the

it and would be strong.

of an eye. You are a shining example to us all, and we think about you every day. May God keep

to keep you safe in His care, and that in His time and way you shall be delivered. Do not think you

Dearest Marrianne,

My prayers are with you daily. I look up to you. When I think of myself if I was in that situation
I only pray that I could be as strong as you. I know Heavenly Father and his angels are looking out
for you. All good comes from him. Just know that I love you and I pray I may meet you in the very
near future.

We just want to let you know that you are in our prayers. You are on a great mission, and Heavenly
Father does not give one a job save He prepares the way before them. We know you are happy and
encouraged because of who you represent, but we pray continually that you will be given the strength
of Heaven to continue to shine bright. God bless His Holy Prophet, Warren Jeffs. And deliver you
both in His time and way. Thank you and Him above for the wonderful example that you are to all

Dear Merrianne,

It's cold where I am today and as I tend the home fire more closely I think of you out in another kind
of cold. Keep your fire burning brightly dear sister! Angels are taking notes for the records to
present to our Maker, who is of course the final judge in all matters of life. I hope one day to have
the chance to see you in person, still glowing with the Light of Christ, as I know you are well trained
in shining brightly. I only wish I was doing as well as you are in this. On these cold nights I don't
go to sleep til very late because it's too hard to keep my little spot on earth sufficiently warm the
night through. That's when I think of you the most. I wrote this thinking of you:

Oh, if I could slip a shoulder 'neath the massive load you bear,
If I could ease the sharpness of the longing you endure....
I know I can't in person, but to offer up a prayer:
The Lord above walks with you, His love and peace is sure.

I contemplate the battles fought eternally though time
In hopes that such as you would yet be free
In a freedom of your choosing, one to fit your paradigm;
For nothing less than this could one consider liberty!

So they've fitted you with shackles and deprived you of your friends;
No chain has been invented to enclose the human heart!
The "free" world soon must recognize what your crisis now portends:
It seems that soon our freedoms will be liberty in part!

Keep Your Light Shining Bright!

Love to you and those you love.

I was glad to be with you for a little while in state custody, and I only know what 2 months in state

custody is like. I can only imagine what you are going through...

Don't forget how much I love you and I really want to see you soon!!!

You are in the position of being a martyr to your religion. I am not Mormon nor paticurly religious,
but I have developed a strong admiration for the courage that you and the rest of your religion have
demonstrated. Obviously, The video of you being taken captive distresses CPS. The poet Robert
Burns wrote Oh for the gift to see ourselves as others see us. CPS needs to take to heart how many
of us see them.

Merrianne:

I am deeply saddened by the religious persecution that has resulted in your incarceration. However,
I find the courage shown by you and your people to be quite inspiring.

There are many in the academic community that support the struggles of you and your people for
freedom from persecution. There are many examples of intellectuals who, like yourself, have been
forcibly removed from family for speaking their beliefs, and have also sacrificed their lives.

Thousands of scholars perished in Communist China during the "Cultural Revolution," and I have
been privileged to know and work with some of their children who survived. Similarly, Nazi
Germany not onlyforced the great physicist Einstein to flee, but evicted or killed many other eminent
scientists and professors. Just as you have become a symbol of the persecution against your religion,
you have also become a symbol of the larger story of persecuted humanity.

There are many of is in the academic community that decry governmental attempts to stifle speech,
belief, and inquiry. Though we intellectuals have a culture very different from yours, we offer our
support and encouragement.

Another week, another opportunity to never weary in well doing. You are a shining light to us all,
we want to go through whatever H.F. wants us to go through in the way He wants us to go through
it. Our Prophet has shown us how to do it and I believe you have followed that perfect example.
Let's make it through another week, live for Him and look to what is just ahead of those who will
sacrifice their all for what we have been taught. I know He loves you, I know He loves me, and I
know He loves all Father's children. I pray H.F. blessings on His servant and upon those His servant
loves. God bless you. And keep your smile on.

Merianne, your people are being victimized by an American version of the terror which gripped Nazi
Germany, Communist China and even the USA which interned all Japanese Americans as all the
FLDS children were interned in camps and deprived of freedom. Whatever the state has accused
cannot compare to the obvious misery that you and your family is now suffering when CPS is
incapable of enforcing protecting children from neglect and abuse when they are caring for children
like yourself.

I hope your parents and friends will allow you to read book like the Diary of Anne Frank, Elie
Wiesel's Night, his personal account of the Holocaust as seen through the eyes of a 15-year-old boy,
and Farewell to Manzanar: A True Story of Japanese American Experience During and After the
World War II Internment. Another good story is China Cry which is also a video. Here is a review
for a movie which is certainly approved by most christians: Nora Lamm, whose childhood was rent

asunder when the Japanese invaded Shanghai at the outset of World War II. Recalling these horrific
times, Nora remembers the cloistered pre-invasion existence she enjoyed thanks to the prominence
of her physician father The deprivations she experienced at the hands of the invaders are
compounded when postwar China is taken over by the Communists. In the early 1960s, Nora escapes
to Hong Kong, where she works tirelessly on behalf of basic human rights (and Christ) for those still
trapped on the Mainland.

I hope that you, or girls like you will write of your terrible experience so that future generations will
learn and remember what happens when people like Gov Perry believe that

"Any action taken to protect children
is never misguided," Krista Piferrer, Perry's deputy press
secretary.

That is truly a chilling statement, right out of 1984 and Brave New World, also books that you
should read or ask about.

I'm watching the sunrise this morning and enjoying my quiet time. I hope you are well and can find
special times in your day when God is very near. I love to read Psalm 121 and even listen to a
recording of it put to music. I imagine the Hebrew children rejoicing and singing as they look
forward to better days. And that is my prayer for you! Better days and happiness ahead. Today I
am going to fill my house with music as I go about my work. I might sing out loud! Hope you have
a good day today and that your heart is filled with music.

Hello Merrianne!
I am an LDS mother of 8 children. I coldn't imagine what any of my children would have to go
through if they were taken away from us. You must be terrified and lonley. If I could reach out and
give you a mothers comfort and tender embrace I would. Keep sweet my dear child and be of good
cheer. The Holy Spirit is with you. He is our comforter in times such as these. In D & C section 121
Joseph Smith is praying to the Lord while he was a prisoner in Liberty jail. He and several
companions had been imprisoned for several months without relief from executive officers or
judiciaries. As I read this section I get the feeling that at times Joseph Smith must have felt that
Heavenly Father wasn't hearing his prayers. Merrianne, in my life I too have felt this way many
times. I have cancer right now and have thought why doesn't the Lord just answer my prayers and
take it away right now because I have 8 kids to raise. But I understand that Heavenly Father will
answer our prayers in His time and the way He sees fit. He does hear every one of your prayers. You
can be sure of that. My Bishop had me read D & C section 121. It is very small, but very powerfull.
In part it reads: "Oh God, where art thou? And where is the pavillion that covereth thy hiding place?
How long shall thy hand be stayed, and thine eye, yea thine pure eye, behold from the eternal
heavens the wrongs on thy people and of thy servants, and thine ear be penetrated with their crys?
Yea, Oh Lord, how long shall they suffer these wrongs and unlawful oppressions, before thine heart
shall be softened toward them, and thy bowels be moved with compassion toward them? O lord God
Almighty, maker of heaven, earth, and seas, and of all things that in them are, and who controllest
and subjectest the devil, and the dark and benighted dominion of Sheol-stretch forth thy hand; let
thine eye pierce; let thy pavillion be taken up; let thy hiding place no longer be covered; let thine ear
be inclined; let thine heart be softened, and thy bowels moved with compassion toward us. Let thine
anger be kindled against our enemies; and, in the fury of thine heart, with thy sword avenge us of our
wrongs. Remember thy suffering saints, O our God; and thy servants will rejoice in thy name
forever." I love that passage. And, when you continue to read in 121 God answeres Joseph Smith
and this is some of what God tells him: "My son, peace be unto thy soul; thine adversity and thine
afflictions shall be but a small moment; And then, if thou endure it well, God shall exalt thee on
high; thou shalt triumph over all thy foes. Thy friends do stand by thee, and they shall hail thee again
with warm hearts and friendly hands." Later on in the same section you can read God also tells
Joseph Smith: "Cursed are all those that shall lift up the heel against mine anointed, saith the Lord,
and cry they have sinned when they have not sinned before me, saith the Lord, but have done that
which was meet in mine eyes, and which I commanded them. But those who cry transgression do
it because they are the servants of sin, and are the children of disobedience themselves." Later also
you can read God say: "It had been better for them that a millstone had been hanged about their
necks, and drowned in the depth of the sea. Wo unto all those that discomfort my people, and drive,

and murder, and testify against them, saith the Lord of Hosts; a generation of vipers shall not escape
the damnation of hell. Behold, mine eyes see and know all their works, and I have in reserve a swift
judgment in the season thereof, for them all; for there is a time appointed for every man, according
as his works shall be." So Merrianne, take comfort in this passage. Know that those who are doing
these things to you and your family, God's wrath is coming against them. They will be dealt with in
Gods way and His time. For now, he hears you my dear child. He has sent the Holy Spirit to be your
comforter. My prayers are with you and your family. God bless you.

Good afternoon Merrianne!
I know I have written you before, but I just fell as thought I should keep writing to you. I want to
send you my love and encouragement. I just two of my children up from school and I was thinking
about you. I was thinking that you may have been home schooled when you were living with your
family. Or perhaps attending a school within the FLDS community. What a different world it must
be for you to attend a public school. I have home-schooled my kids in the past. But since I have been
fighting cancer I have not been able to. I don't care for the public schools. They teach our children
things that I don't think is right. Other children expose my children to mannerisms that are not in
harmony with the teachings of our Father in heaven. The children in public school can also be cruel
at times. My children must dress modestly. They sometimes get riciculed by other students. It is so
hard being young these days. Children have so many things they are faced with. When I was young
it wasn't this bad. Well, I should get to clothes that need folding. I will be fixing dinner soon and that
needs to be done. I am praying for your return to your family. I am also praying for your family. I
will write you again. May God bless and comfort you.
Love, Tonja

Merrianne,

We're praying for you and hope all is well with you this beautiful day. Here's a comforting thought
from the Bible for you today. James 3:11 "Behold we count them happy which endure. Ye have
heard of the patience of Job, and have seen the end of the Lord; that the Lord is very pitiful, and of
tender mercy."

Truth will yet prevail, and time is truly a friend to the innocent (even if it seems not so friendly at
the present). It is said that the will of God will not lead you where the grace of God cannot keep you.
We extend our faith and prayer that His grace will be with you throughout your separation from all
you hold dear.

I read Psalm 102 thinking of you and all of our other political prisoners for religion's sake in the last
five to two hundred five years that have been jailed here in the land of the free and the home of the
brave... I never really thought that the bravest would necessarily be incarcerated....

Though smitten, and as a sparrow alone on a house top, you are a shining light of the true peace that
comes from our Lord and Leader Jesus Christ. I noticed also when reading Psalm 102 that
immediately following that prayer of affliction were several rejoicing Psalms of blessing and
thanksgiving. I presume you shall have several you could write for yourself when that day comes that
the Giver, Creator, and Great Ruler intervenes in your behalf! We know it will take His intervention,
as indeed it did in 1776 for this newly-declared-independent-of-unrighteous-dominion republic for
which we stand. God bless you, your friends and family on whom this experience was imposed, and
especially our Prophet and Friend.

Great Is The Lord, Tis Good To Praise.

You are not forgotten.

one day you can find me on the blogspace. I will update you as I learn more and create a desireable
space to look at. My family continues to pray for you several times a day. Thank you for praying for
me as well. I know that Heavenly Father has a purpose for me. So I leave my health in His hands.

Good Morning Merrianne:

My family and I have been praying for your release daily. I think about you through-out my daily
activities. We hope that you are able to contact your family members by now. I read that they were
keeping you from talking to them. As a mother myself I just couldn't stand being kept away from my
daughter let alone not able to even hear her sweet voice and to tell her myself how much I love and
miss her. My daughter Crystal who is 15 years old told me that she would go crazy if she coudn't talk
to me. We pray several times each day that you will be returned home right away. We are praying
for your peace and comfort as well as for your parents and other family members. Heavenly Father
is with you Merrianne. I know that you know this. He has not forsaken you. In His time you will
return to your family. Know this, YOU WILL RETURN. They can not keep you hostage forever.
God's wrath is coming to them. He will smite those that persecute His chosen ones. That is His
promise. Keep strong. Know you are loved. Not only by your family but by so many others that keep
a special place for you and your family in their hearts.
God bless you.

Dear sweet Merrianne,

When I feel a little blue,
I'll just send a smile to you;
I'm astonished when it's sent,
That the smiling isn't spent!

It seems in fact to grow,
And that little smile I sow
Yields up fields and fields of friends
For that smile never ends.
What a harvest we all share
When we lift a load of care.
When we take the time to smile
It makes life for all worth while.

it happens, we all know is in the Lord's time, but until then I also know that, as WSJ has made a
heaven out of a prison cell, so also will you make a heaven where ever you go, for you carry it with

Hi Merrianne!
My family and I have been praying for you several times every day. We pray for your quick return
as well as for Heavenly Father to comfort you and help you to be at peace. I know it must be very
difficult for you to be away from those that love you. There are so many who don't even know you
Merrianne yet I am sure like myself, have come to love you through their prayers for you. Every day
I am able to get up with my children, make their meals, do their laundry, play with them, hug them
and kiss them, and teach them many things about life. I can't imagine what your family is going

through having you taken away and not able to see you or speak to you. I think about your poor dear
Mother and what it must be like for her. I am so grateful for being a mother. As I go about my days,
I often think of you and what you are having to endure because your rights as well as the rights of
your family have been taken away from you. Merrianne, as you have so sadly have come to learn,
laws are not always fair. Sometimes laws are not always there to protect us. And sometimes the law
does the opposite of what it should do. When there are corrupt governments or agencies out there
acting like cowards, with nothing better to do than to tear apart loving families such as yours, and
picking on Gods children such as yourself, then these horrible things happen. One day, the ones who
have taken you away and held you captive must face God. And then they will get what they deserve.
We will continue to pray for you. Stay strong dear Merrianne. You are special to our Father in
Heaven. And you have become special to me as well. I send you my love.

Hello Merrianne:

I was reading some of the entries here. One of the entries said that you are able to come home to live
with your Auntie. I hope this is true. If it is, I am so happy for you. So very happy!!!! Isn't Heavenly
Father good to us! I wish you well. You have so much to look forward to now. You will have your
life back. It may never be the same, but at least you are home. Heavenly Father loves you so much
Merrianne. You are very special to Him. I send you a big warm hug.

Merrianne,

I wish you the best through this time, and I hope that your sister Betty has been a comfort to you.
Better than anyone else, I think she understands what you have gone through.

I'm glad that you will now be around people you love and care about, and who love and care about
you. There's nothing that can replace family, no matter what courts and judges may believe.

I'd also like to share one of my favorite quotes: "Let not the ways of the unenlightened give you
unease, for God is with you always."

God is with you, and I pray He will continue to watch over you.

A year ago this week I cried myself to sleep for many, many nights over the knowledge that almost
500 people had been so forcefully "rescued" from the heaven on earth they had so patiently and
carefully built. I would hold my 13-month-old knowing that she was the same age as others who did
not have their mothers close by to care for them.

What little I was able to discover of their condition melted my heart over and over.

Dear Merrianne, you are still the hostage of Texas and are in our prayers. I would like to send
encouragement to you to keep on keeping sweet. It's a tender circumstance you're in, but I know that
Heavenly Father prepared your way with every gift you would need to succeed.

Lots of love.

Dearest Merrianne:

I have had you on my mind for several days. I don't know why, but I've just been thinking about you
so much lately. My family and I pray for you and your family daily. I have thought about how the
state of Texas has damaged your life in so many ways. CPS and everyone else involved are doing
the work of Satan. All the while trying to claim they are protecting you! What a load of trash! I
know that your family loves you and have always tried to protect you. That's what parents do! You
have a very good family with the very best spiritual values. It is so horrible when corrupt
governments as that in Texas, invade your homes and your lives. Your sweet parents aren't able to
do anything about it because the evil Texas government can say and do as they please! Sounds to me
like they are no different than the evil German Nazi government under Hitlers control. I have thought
about your emotional pain Merrianne. I can't even imagine what it would be like to be a prisoner of
the American legal system. This is America for goodness sakes! What you have been put through
NEVER should have happened. It makes me angry just thinking about it. Sometimes when I am
reading from the Book of Mormon, thoughts of you come to my mind. You have had far too much
sadness in your young life Merrianne. And the evil Texas government has caused every bit of it! As
you have learned, the only true and righteouss government is the Lords government. All others are
corrupt and evil. I know that Heavenly Father will punish CPS and all of those involved soon
enough. I feel so sorry for you and your family. It is so sad and heart wrenching. If there is anything
at all that I, or my family can do for you and your family, please let us know. I believe that Bill M.
has my email address. I don't know for sure, but are you living with your Auntie? Do you have any
idea when you will be allowed to return home? We will continue to pray for you and your family.
We all send you our love.

do. You are special to Heavenly Father. He loves you just the same no matter what He allows to
happen. Keep smiling. I know it is hard to be parted from your family who loves you so much,
though Heavenly Father is there to help you. Keep your smile so bright! My middle name stands for

Today marks the first year since your intense testing at the hands of a supposedly democratic
government began. This was never completely your, your family's or your community's trial alone,
for as I have seen, it has brought out the gold in some people and the dross in others even at great
distances from you. Even total strangers have asked about you and others who were taken that
anxious prayerful day one year ago.

Our prayers continue to be for your deliverance to your family. Our God will see you through. He
is ever aware of your needs and earnest desires to reutrn home. If words could hold the brightest and
most encouraging thoughts in sweet distillate condition, how I would love to find them to send to
you. (English is so limited!!) Keep Sweet. There's a lifetime of sermon for me in two words. Smile,
smile, and smile again. I take comfort in the knowledge that this too must pass. With a true united
faith it could be sooner rather than later.

Shine on, bright and clear!

Dear Merrianne:
I pray you are holding on. I pray that the Holy Spirit is with you. I pray for your peace and comfort
during this horrible separation from your family and those who love you. I can't imagine how the
state of Texas can justify what they are doing to you and your family. Supposedly we live in a
country that gives us the freedom to practice our religion without interference from the government.
As I have told you before, I am LDS. However, I believe in polygamy with all of my heart and have
always wanted sister wives. I also wish that our faith would allow us to live again by this sacred
principle. The principle of plural marriage is sacred and holy, ordained by our Father in Heaven. He
wants us to live by this law. You are very fortunate to have been born into your faith. I can only pray
for our church leaders to agree to live by this sacred principle again. I think that the only way this
would ever happen is if the evil government that we live under would make it legal. Otherwise I
don’t think our church will ever allow it again. I have deep respect for your prophet Warren Jeffs.
He stood up to what he believed in, just as the prophet Joseph Smith did. I respect all of your past
prophets for not allowing the state to bully them into abandoning this sacred principle. You are
blessed to be FLDS. I love the Doctrine and Covenants. It is so pure and full of truth. In section 127,
Joseph Smith glories in persecution and tribulation. Word for word in the first few versus it just
reminds me of your prophet Warren Jeffs. If you replace the name of Joseph Smith and read it as if
it was written about your prophet, it makes sense and is sad that your prophet is still in the hands of
his oppressors. But it says in verse 3: Let all the saints rejoice, therefore, and be exceedingly glad;
and he will mete out a just recompense of reward upon the heads of all their oppressors. I pray for
your prophet to be freed from his captors and that you all will have your prophet living in your midst
again. And that your church is free to practice your religion as the Lord desires. It is so sad to see
such sweet and gentle souls such as all of you in the FLDS church being persecuted and falsely
accused of wrongdoings. In D & C 121, verse 16 tells us that “Cursed are all those that shall lift up
the heel against mine anointed, saith the Lord, but have done that which was meet in mine eyes. And
which I commanded them.” Verse 17: “But those who cry transgression do it because they are the
servants of sin, and are the children of disobedience themselves.” Verse 18: “And those who swear
falsely against my servants, that they bring them into bondage and death-” Verse 22: “It had been
better for them that a millstone had been hanged about their necks, and they drowned in the depth
of the sea.” Verse 23: “Wo unto all those that discomfort my people, and drive, and murder, and
testify against them, saith the Lord of Hosts: a generation of vipers shall not escape the damnation

of hell.” Verse 24: “Behold, mine eyes see and know all their works, and I have in reserve a swift
judgment in the season thereof, for them all.”
I think about you often and wonder how you are holding up under such circumstances and having
this last so long. Heavenly Father loves you so much Merrianne. He has great things in store for you.
I would imagine that you are going to be blessed with many wonderful little children to love and
cherish and raise up unto the Lord. I have 8 children and each one is so special to me. Each one is
so unique. I am blessed to have them. We grow so much during our trials. You will become stronger
because of this. Don’t allow these evil doers that hold you prisoner to break your sweet spirit. You
will be free someday Merrianne. They can do so many things to you, but they can’t steal your faith
and love for God. We continue to pray for you and your prophets release. I don’t know how long
your prophet must remain there, but have faith that the Lord will find a way to free him. He loves
your prophet dearly just as he loves you too. I pray that Heavenly Father will continue to bless you
with peace and comfort. Keep Sweet Merrianne. Heavenly Father listens to each of your prayers. I
send you my love and continuous prayers.

Just thinking about you and hoping you are doing well. Spring is wonderful here and everyday there
is more and more green in our yard and in the trees. Makes me look up and appreciate the beauty
of God's creation. Hope you are busy doing things you enjoy. I dont know if you like to draw or
write songs or poetry. When the seasons change, I always wish I had great artistic talent so that I can
paint or sketch the beauty around me. I have a granddaughter who is almost your age and she enjoys
writing stories and helping plan meals and cooking. Hope you are smiling today.

waiting for deliverance.

It is beautiful to think about your sweet sister Betty's example of patient endurance. How I look
forward to the day when you will return, as she did, freely, joyfully. It is truly humbling to think
about the trials you are going through. Sometimes when it seems I've some tough stuff to take it

Most folks who have ever come into contact with CPS and CASA know how sneaky and under-handed they can be. Usually, they hide behind a child, trying to claim they are "Protecting" the child from damaging scrutiny. They claim that divulging any information would be a breach of the childs "Confidentiality". Even when they murder the brat in their custody, they won't give you any information "In the childs best interest".

Horseshit. The only "Best interest" they are interested in is their own.

This is a copy of a "Permanancy Hearing" of one of the Mormon children from Texas. You will note that the document came from the Court. I have included the request from my Lawyer to get this document. I expected it to be redacted to eliminate certain information, but as you can PLAINLY see, the Court sold the document to ANYONE who asked for it with the judges blessings, UNREDACTED in ANY way.

Why would the judge do this? Simple, she wanted the mother and father trashed, and this was the fastest way to do it. Her target, the childs mother, was dead of a stress induced heart attack less than 5 months later. During the court cases Mrs. Jessop complained of being ill. CPS and the pig of a judge, barbie Walthers, insisted she "Was as strong as a horse". So far, Merrianne has lost her mother, an Uncle, and a brother, all to stress induced strokes or heart attacks. Her brother was 26 years old. Her Uncle was 54.

Without question, Merrianne Jessop Jeff's is a victim; of the State of Texas.

LETTERS FROM MANZINAR- VOLUME ONE

2011-06-28T10:58:00.000-04:00

There have been many attempts to whitewash and clean up the persecution of the Texas Mormons living on the YFZ Ranch. We've all heard the stories and seen the propaganda releases by the thieves from the San Angelo CAC, CASA, the "Court" and the bigots and haters who would see these children destroyed rather than to be allowed to continue to practice their religion as is their right.

At the other end of that snipers rifle were 465 children. Given the bloodthirsty, trigger happy mind-set of law enforcement today, it's a MIRACLE none of the children were killed or maimed during that attack and their captivity by the State. (This, despite the best efforts of LE to openly provoke a deadly confrontation with the childrens parents during the raid.)

We've all heard of the dead babies buried on the Ranch, the stash of weapons, the crematorium and the broken bones. We've also heard (From the State) of the "Kind and gentle" treatment the children and parents received from the State during the attack and the 8 weeks of hell the children were dragged through with the States stated intention of NEVER returning them to their parents.

Here's the REAL story from the children, the folks in charge of those children, and the parents who actually had to endure the sadistic, intentional infliction of pain and sorrow by having their children literally ripped from their arms by these ghouls called "Child Protective Services".

INSULIN REFUSAL LETTER

Hello Bill,

Thanks for your fast response. I have a CPS story to tell that happened in the Texas raid. I wasn't sure where to post it, so I thought you would be the best one to tell.
First I want to tell you "Thank You", for your kindness to the FLDS, and how much you are doing for us. You are a real blessing to us, and we thank Heavenly Father for all you are doing.

This story was told by one of the fathers in the raid.

When the mothers and children were taken, the CPS took all the herbs and medicines from them. One young girl, a diabetic, was not even allowed her insulin. She was suppose to go to CPS and ask for the insulin when she needed it. This young girl went up to them to get her insulin. CPS dropped the vial, and it broke.
The mother of this girl said, "You need to get her another one." They said, "No we don't!" She said, "Yes you do." CPS again answered, "No we don't!" Again the mother said firmly, "Yes You Do!" And once again CPS answered, "No we don't."
The mother said, "You're going to have a dead little girl here if you don't!"
CPS still refused!
There was a doctor on the scene. He talked with CPS without any luck. CPS would not buy anymore insulin for her. The doctor left. When he returned, he had four vials of insulin with him. He had charged them to his credit card, at $100.00 a piece. This kind doctor gave this young diabetic girl the vials of insulin she need so dearly. They never saw this doctor again. Anyone who was good to them was never seen after they had been kind to any of the FLDS.

I feel the stories need to come out, about the real child abuse CPS did and is doing to these children.

Thanks Bill, keep up the great work you are doing.

Observations in San Angelo at the FLDS Shelter

April 2008

I arrived at the pavilion on my first night and was startled by my feelings of admiration for the women and protectiveness for the children. By the second day, I was ready to run in front of CNN cameras to shout that there was a travesty happening inside those walls. I could not fathom the thought of removing the children from their mothers. Of course I was cautioned not to interfere in a “crime scene investigation”/

The Mothers:

The mothers were patient, attentive, and sweet with their children, working within the crowded and difficult environment to keep some control over the behavior or their children, their intake, and there schedule, on the first days I was in the Pavilion, women thanked me for all we had done and did not complain for the mistakes that had been made. They were grateful for our attempts to get air mattresses for the pregnant mothers. Some were friendly and engage in conversation, while others did not welcome our efforts to visit. Some who were previously sullen or reluctant to speak would brighten when they learned we were not CPS; others said they been lied to by everyone and would not alter their viewpoints about our team either.

I sat with Audrey while three of her children were removed for six hours of questioning. She cried but then apologized for crying, saying she did not want to be “burden” to her sisters. She also denied feeling angry, even though her eyes flashed at the CPS worker who had denied her ability to speak to her children as they were lead away. She said that remaining serene and polite through such a trial would only serve to make her stronger in her faith. While she waited for news of her children, she returned to her cot and to her other children. Amazingly, none of the other mothers acknowledged her or come to comfort her. (My interpretation is that Audrey has been trained not to fell her true feelings, and that the other woman were afraid to be seen as associating with someone whose children may have revealed secrets.) At the end Audrey (pregnant) was ferried to the shelter while her six children were split among three placement locations. After she was whisked away I sat with her oldest child, Rose, age 12, while we labeled her mothers additional belongings in a bag and hoped it would be delivered to her. Rose was obviously distraught and not eager to trust anyone, though she did tell me that she had heard from her lawyer about the sites where the children would be sent the following day.

I saw Jeannette rocking her 4 month old baby boy in a chair on the afternoon of April 23.

I could see what I interpreted as anguish on her face, so I approached her and asked how she was. She began to weep almost immediately and I invited her into a screened area where the woman could nurse their babies. She was terribly distraught, and I gave her information about the effects of stress, the likelihood of depression and the possible treatments. Her eyes revealed pain but they welcomed me to continue. I comforted and tried to find some hope for a speedy resolution. I did not get to see her the following day when she and her infant were separated from her older children. This woman’s mental health status is in grave danger, in my opinion.

On Wednesday, April 23, I also visited Pauline who told me that she intended to leave the ranch and to move to the closest city to her children, wherever they were moved, in order to be able to visit them as much as possible. She was more committed to her children than any convenience for herself. The next morning 40 woman boarded the bus to the shelter, including Pauline. To my knowledge none of these women actually wanted to leave her home on the ranch, but they felt they had no option if they wanted to see their children.

Some of the supposedly underage mothers spoke to me, revealing that they were indeed over twenty but the judge had declared that they appeared younger so they also must stay. Some did indeed look very young, and I also thought they might be underage. One extremely pretty young mother talked to me and said there her name was the same name as her mother. I asked if it wasn’t customary for a woman to take her husband’s name when she married, and she said she couldn’t talk about that and quickly turned away. I had stepped into a sensitive area of conversation.

Many complained that this was only a way to prevent them from practicing their religion. They quoted Bible verses and said they had expected to be persecuted for their religion. I told them that we too learned Bible verses, and that despite all their training otherwise, there are some good people out in the world, some who care about these women and their children’s welfare.

Children

The children were sweet and well-mannered upon our arrival. They obeyed their mothers and appeared to be healthily and well-nourished. They were curious about us and asked questions about nail polish, hair-cuts, jewelry and about how we spoke. They wanted to be busy and asked to rake, sweep or wash windows, since without toys in their society, these were the “fun” activities open to them. They played awkwardly with balls that had been given to them, though as the days progressed, I saw the children having a wonderful time and developing some skill as they played actual games with CPS workers. The children laughed easily and gave eye contact. They had none of the traditional withdrawal common in abused children.

On the last day of my stay in the coliseum (April 24), the mothers had been removed, with the exception of those who were minors or suspected of being minors. The children had cried bitterly on the removal of the mothers, and they were now with strangers. The noise level went up several decibels as crying and running and screaming took over. Children were grabbing toys from others and using toys as play weapons against each other and their “captors.” In my estimation they were acting out their fear and anger. One little boy of about four was frantically running from CPS workers, avoiding capture in every way he could. Once caught, I held firmly in my arms while he wept that he didn’t want them to take his mother

Child Protective Services (CPS) Personnel

I personally did not see some of the individual acts of rudeness or intolerance viewed by some of the others in our group. I did see some wonderful interactions with CPS and some of the children, as they read stories and played comes. One young man sat two hours, comforting a toddler after his mother was taken. However, some of them seemed to be thoughtless in their dress or in their blunt demeanor. Some were totally invested in the CPS philosophy and others had questions about the wisdom of the plan. However, the CPS philosophy itself was the primary problem. I also saw a woman I know personally had been a prison principal now employed with CPS. She seemed to have retained an attitude that these people were inmates!

The philosophy is one that removes ALL children from a home in which only one child is suspected of being abused. Since this sect lives in such a communal setting, CPS interpreted all 460+ children as being in one family. They believed they were rescuing the children from abuse and that the mothers were also guilty since they had not protected the children from the suspected perpetrators. CPS had their primary focus the sexual abuse that was alleged, rather then the emotional abuse that I felt they were creating.

CPS said they were worried about safety, so numbers of events occurred in which centered on very strict interpretation of safety. For instance, a mother’s request to use a blender to make baby food was denied, since the blender was considered dangerous. Toddlers standing on their cots or babies covered with blankets in their beds were considered safety hazards and CPS commanded the mothers to alter the situation. The mothers had not been charged with a crime, and yet their cell phones were removed, since, I presume, CPS had determined that there might be conversations with outside individuals to plan to kidnap the children. Also as a safety caution, the children in the coliseum were not allowed to go to the neighbor’s football field to play but were kept on a small, dusty corner of the grounds.

CPS showed a disregard and disrespect for the mothers’ culture in various ways. We were advised to dress in ways to build trust and foster communication, but obviously CPS had not been so advised. On the morning we arrived at the Pavilion, a CPS worker in snug red capris was given the responsibility of photographing each child and each mother prior to their physical examinations. Tight, revealing cloths were worn daily by many of those in the Pavilion, and bare arms, feet, and legs were standard, even though FLDS custom is to stay covered except for hands and face.

The living quarters at Fort Concho and the coliseum were crowded, uncomfortable, and inconvenient. The cots were to close, allowing infections to spread rapidly. Quickly many children became sick with upper respiratory illness. There was no privacy for even a moment of conversation or solitude. The food was sufficiently different from their normal diet causing digestive upsets. Mothers requested that some of the sugary treats be put away since the children were indiscriminately sampling all through the day. Showers were few in number, generously manned by volunteers from Texas churches. The families had not had enough clothing g for more than two days. So dirty laundry was a constant problem, and again the facilities were meager. One mother told me that CPS had allowed her only one bag to pack herself and six children. I was told that on one night the laundry failed to return the washed sheets and blankets to one of the barracks, and the group had to sleep on bare cots on a very cool evening.

Sleeping was very difficult, with great numbers of CPS workers there to watch every move and record all activities. One woman told me that the mothers were afraid to sleep because they feared the children would be removed while they slept. Therefore the mothers arranged for some of their own group to stay awake all night to monitor the CPS workers! The woman told the they were particularly uncomfortable with how many men were assigned to watch them. Nap times were also very difficult, since the light level remained too bright, and the noise level was always too high for most people to be able to fall asleep.

On the Thursday morning, April 24,2008, I witnessed a young mother named Rosinith be required by CPS to board the bus back to the ranch, though her young child was in the hospital with 104 degree fever and even though the child’s physician had personally requested the mother’s presence at the hospital. This event haunts me still, and I cannot imagine such a heartless act.

I spent hours contemplating the scenes I had witnessed, and I listened with an open ear to the news commentary and special documentaries on television. I believed in a free and democratic society where woman are equal to men and are allowed to make choices and even mistakes on their own. I believed older adults should protect young men and woman and not take advantage of their youth and inexperience for their own sexual pleasure. I do not believe in polygamy and I see that as a proof that the men in this sect see woman as property. I do believe that we should do what is necessary to convince this community to abandon these practices as non-essential to their religion. However, I also know the research on long-tern consequences o removing children from loving parents. I do believe that the emotional abuse of 460+ children must be weighted in the equation.

I went the 7th and final week. First day when I got badge was given Tip Sheet on rules & how to handle this population. Upon entering the Coliseum noticed several mothers coming at to our group and hugging them (they remembered them). The 1^st family I met the mother knew the older children were taken the day before & she was preparing/packing her things. She allowed me to Interact with her children & read stories to them. One of the daughters looked at my badge & went & told mother. Mother knew I was not CPS & allowed me to take her children to the find scotch tape. CPS worker stopped me & checked my badge. At least 3 CPS workers circled us pretended to pick up items off the floor right in front of us while I read to these children.

Met another mother who was nursing her son, whom I’d, met & interacted with before, was trying to nap & was restless due to coughing. Asked her if I Could pat his back & help settle him. CPS worker came up to me inquiring about his mother; Worker went up to her with clipboard & said, “You need to take him to nurse right now.” This mother was breast feeding at this time. CPS worker would not let me take him. I spent time with her & other children. She was animated, scared, telling me, “It’s like CPS is dangling something over our heads.” Other children came up to us & all wanted to know what was going to happen & why was this happening & letting me know CPS was mean.

Met 2nursing mothers who were breast feeding & let them know I was there to help. Saw them next day at Seton House in San Angela & they came up & hugged me & were grateful they got to stay with their infants & small children. At least 5 mothers reported that at night CPS circled their beds, held flashlights in their faces & then would sit inches away from them as they tried to sleep. Mothers reported they were scared CPS would take their children during the night thus leaving them & their children exhausted. Reports of no privacy & interruptions at pray time were given, as well.

Observed CPS in coliseum sitting in chairs some were sleeping, talking to each other, circling the families, facing the wall not even looking at families. Families reported being cold at night & did not get to go outside, “I wish the tornado would come and blow us back home”, one child stated to me. Mothers were gracious, kind, scared, worried, etc. Children had colds, 7 were arguing at this point over toys CPS brought in.

On the bus I was not allowed to help Children/Mothers get off or help carry any of their items. Children without mothers were crying, one asked me, will I at least get to stay with my brother, and he was weeping. It was heart wrenching & an experience I will never forget but, am humbled & grateful to have been apart of.

When first arriving at Fort Concho in San Angelo we were debriefed about “The Guests” at the fort; the “guests” were the women and children from the Eldorado Ranch. During the debriefing I learned that these women and children came from a culture very different that ours. I heard that they would likely not talk to us, make eye contact with us, and that they were brainwashed.

Within the first two days of being among the women and children from Eldorado I learned though observation and interactions that the initial information we received was false. The women and children did make eye contact; Things stuck me immediately.

These women carried themselves confidence; they were polite and respectful; they displayed what we would consider a great deal of self-esteem.

An incident happened that helped me understand how brainwashed we all are; in my professional opinion brainwashed is the same as conditioned and/or socialized =; and we all have been socialized/conditioned in our respectful cultures, subcultures or societies.

A woman requested to be escorted across the parking lot (from the shelter) to the make shift clinic were an EMS vehicle had pulled up because she believed a child of a close friend was hurt. When we asked CPS staff permission to escort the woman we were told no, she can not go there. We told the woman she was not allowed to leave the shelter area. I later regretted having asked the CPS worker for permission to begin with; I wished I had simply accompanied the woman across the parking lot to the clinic.

This incident made me aware of how conditioned/brainwashed I am. I was obviously afraid to challenge the rules because I might have painful consequences for me. I actually pictured myself being stopped by a law enforcement person and possibly removed for the premise and/or accuse of interfering with legal proceedings.

The entire experience at fort Concho and the Coliseum was sure-real; at times it felt like these woman and children were prisoners;

I head some people wonder out loud if this was Nazy Germany? The thought had struck me too. Is this what it was like for the people in concentration in Germany? The women and Children from Eldorado were lied to and deceived on several occasions.

I often felt helpless; I also felt in awe of the grace, and self-confidence in which the woman behaved. My culture, my society could learn from these woman and children; they have my at-most respect.

Eldorado-San Angelo Incident

Week #1: April 8^th – April 10^th (Fort Concho)

• We attended a briefing on the status of the situation upon arrival. We were told that the encounter with the FLDS women and children would be unlike anything we had ever experienced. We were informed that they would be dressed very strangely, but in clothing of the highest quality and cost. We were told not to expect any of them to engage with us, and if by chance they spoke to us it would be to tell us to speak with their lawyers. We were told that even the children were directing all outsiders to contact their lawyers.

• We were informed not to wear anything red, even nail polish. When I asked someone about the significance of the color red I was told that they believed it represented evil. Later we learned that red signifies the blood of Christ and is therefore sacred.

• The next morning I was assigned to Shelter #6 at Fort Concho. Upon arriving at the site I noticed a building set apart from all the others with a large handwritten sign designating it as Shelter #6. When I approached the building I could find no one with which to check in and proceeded to circle the building. On the backside, away from everything, was a small group of men sitting before a closed door. At my approach several of them arose and came toward me. When I started my purpose in being there I was immediately told I was in the wrong place and to return to the other buildings. When I pointed out the sign identifying the building I was again told to leave and return to the group of the other buildings. We later learned that the adolescent boys were being housed there, although we seldom saw any of them allowed outside.

• Returning back to where we had been earlier I learned that there was another building designated Shelter #6 for mothers and children. I located the CPS shelter supervisor and identified myself. He informed me that the building housed four women and sixteen children, but they were not likely to engage in any way. Since the door was open, I knocked on the doorframe and entered. I introduced myself and initialed conversation to build rapport. The children were quiet, but openly attentive and inquisitive. The women were guarded, but readily identified themselves with their first name when I introduced myself and the names ages of their children when I inquired.

• The one room they were staying in was approximately 20’-25’sq and built of rock walls with no insulation, unfinished wood plank floors, and had two windows - only once of which opened. There was a large potbellied wood stove in the center of the room and the four walls were lined with their twenty cots. There was no storage for their clothing or other belongings and it was neatly piled on cots and in the floor.

• The door to the room was almost constantly open. Even when the women closed the door to reduce notice during naptime or to dress themselves or the children, it was almost immediately opened again. At one point when the door was closed, a CPS worker stated that she did not know how she was supposed to “watch and supervise these people if they keep closing the door.” The women eventually dressed themselves and their children in the public restroom in order to have privacy.

• At on point I heard toward the public restroom and was immediately grabbed by the arm by a CPS worker who told me to use the port-a-potties outside the rock wall, “because we didn’t know what kind of diseases the people might have and we don’t want to catch anything from them”. I was later told that it had been determined that STDs were rampant among the women because of their promiscuous lifestyle. I did not believe that information since I knew none of the woman had submitted to examination.

• On the second day, the shelter supervisor (a man) entered the shelter (housing four adult women and their children) without knocking. Several men and a group of Teas Rangers followed him. I levered myself through the group in order to observe what was happening since I had already learned that the woman and children were being reacted discourteously and disrespectfully at best, with some observations of verbal abuse and emotional threats. I could not get close enough at first to hear what the shelter supervisor and his entourage were saying to them, but finally heard them ordering the women to submit their children for physical examinations. I also observed the Texan angers’ interactions with the oldest woman of the group. The Rangers were respectful and polite. The Ranger in charge of the group, a young woman named Wendy, squatted down to eye level with the woman, and greeted her by name. She returned the woman’s cell phone to her and told her that plans were being made to reunite the entire group.

• Although the women were not charged with any crimes, they were not allowed to communicate with the women in other shelters or with the outside world and their cell phones had been confiscated. Shortly after one of the mothers in Shelter #6 had a cell phone returned and was openly making a call, a CPS worker ordered a DPS officer to take it away from her. The DPS officer confronted the woman and asked her where she had gotten the phone. Se told him that the Teas Rangers had returned it to her and I backed up her explanation.

• The CPS worker were openly rude to the mothers and children, yelled at them for trying to wave to friends and family members in surrounding shelters, threatened them with arrest if they did not stop waving to others, continually reminded them that the women were guests only and could be made to leave if they did not cooperate, threatened the mothers with never seeing their children again if they did not cooperate, and ignored requests for anything. The mothers began asking if everyone who approached them was CPS or not

• CPS workers became irritated when the mothers requested brooms and mops to clean their surroundings. One broom, on mop, and one bucket were finally provided and were shared by neighboring shelters.

• CPS workers carried clipboards and continuously took notes of everything said or observed, sometimes writing while a mother was still talking to them.

• Mental health workers were treated rudely and their presence was discounted at every turn. We were repeatedly told that if we interfered in any way with CPS directives to us or to the guests, we would be arrested and charged with interference with a public servant in the performance of their duties.

• By day three, it became obvious that both the mothers and the mental health workers were being lied to and/or ignored. Even the simplest request was discounted. At one time a mother told me she wished she had some peppermint or chamomile tea to give to her toddle daughter for her runny nose. I approached the shelter supervisor with the request. Later his supervisor cam to me and told me that herbal teas were medication and could only be approved by a physician the request was denied.

• The mothers complained about the food and snacks provided for them. One mother told me that her children were accustomed to nuts fruits from snacks, not commercial fried pies. Chicken was served almost every meal with a little eor no seasoning and no flavor. Vegetables were scarce and everything was highly processed – very different from the women and children’s typical diet of homegrown organic and unprocessed foods. Very quickly, many of the children developed diarrhea and gastrointestinal problems.

• I observed that their clothing was indeed well constructed in a variety of styles and pastel colors, but was homemade. They were very modest in their dress and no skin was ever visible except hand and faces, even on small children. I learned that some women were known for their seamstress skills while others sewed little at all, so a group of woman sewed for everyone as their contribution to the community

• The Children were amazingly clean, happy, healthy, energetic, inquisitive, well behaved, and self-confident; while the mothers were consistently calm, patient, and loving with their children. Discipline was firm and consistent, with never a hand or voice raised. There mother’s parenting skills were textbook child development strategies. The children did not bicker among themselves and seldom cried. If a child did cry, his or her needs were met immediately and the crying stopped.

May 7, 2008

Our experience in San Angelo during the “Eldorado Incident” was unique is that it was very different from what we expected, or from anything any of us had every experienced. It was frightening to watch women and children being herded and separated like cattle with no regard for human rights or the needs of the group or individual. How could this happen in America? How could this happen in Texas? If this had happened in another country, our government would have tried to prevent it! Old films of Concentration Camps came to mind.

The first night we were there, we worked to get air mattresses for the pregnant women who were sleeping on army cots with no padding. That first week was spent being a friendly face to the women and children. It was a relief to them to be able to speak with someone who was not writing down and reporting everything they said, and who would try to help get their simple needs met. We developed trusting relationships with them and came to respect and admire them.

They needed decent food such as vegetables, whole grain bread and meat instead of candy, cookies and processed foods, the sugar and additives were making the children sick because they had never eaten junk food. The boys and woman and girls had to share a bathroom and there were no showers available for several days. Then a shower trailer was moved to the parking lot and they were allowed to go there to shower, always under guard by CPS or DPS.

CPS workers were everywhere and these people had no privacy. CPS intruded on their every activity and conversation, and even followed us around and made notes on everything we said. They noted everything we said even when we were outside of shelters if they heard us.

We provided arts and crafts and school lesson for the children to the extent that CPS would allow us. There were very few things they were allowed to have as CPS had designated almost everything “weapon”. Obviously they did not know these people at all. Violence is not a part of their culture of belief. If they had been given a truck load of weapons they would have not used them.

These lovely women and children were gracious and kind always. They tried to cooperate with every request, even when terrified that they were going to be separated from their children. The mothers are incredibly loving and patient with the children. The children were well socialized and well behaved and interacted willingly and happily with us. All of the children were healthy when they were taken from their home, but when herded into extremely crowded quarters with an artificial environment (lighting on 24 hours a day, no fresh air, no sunlight, strange food, uncomfortable beds, surrounded by strangers watching there every move) they became ill.

Chicken Pox ran rampant through the children, diarrhea, respiratory conditions and other illness created grater discomfort and even hospitalizations.

The woman were lied to and denied access to their attorneys. They were told that they were going to be moved to another location so families that had been torn apart during the move from the ranch could be reunited, but when the got off of the bus at the new location the mothers of children ages 12 and older were taken through a door and loaded on another bus to take them back to the ranch. They didn’t even get to say goodbye to the children.

The children that were left behind were cared for by the mothers with younger children who remained.

Living conditions in the coliseum were not conductive to good health for anyone, and the presence of hostile CPS workers who spied on them constantly, kept them awake at night by shining lights in their faces and talking and laughing created enormous stress for the mothers and children. None of them slept well or enough.

One the awful day that they separated the mothers and children the level of cruelty and lack o respect for human rights was overwhelming. Crying, begging children were ripped away from their divested mothers and the mothers were put on buses to either return to the ranch or to go to shelters. Most went to shelters because they were told they would be able to see their children if they did not return to the ranch. This, of course, was another lie.

Try to imagine all these children from ages 1 year to 12 years, left in that coliseum with only CPS and DPS to care for them. The only others were the mothers who CPS decided were under 18 and kept in their custody along with their children. The floor was literally slick with rears in places. A baby was left in a stroller without food and water for 24 hours and ended up in the hospital. A 4 year old boy was so terrified that he snuck away and hid and was only found after the coliseum and been emptied the next day.

I witnessed a small boy, maybe 3 years old, walking along the rose of cots with a little pillow saying “I need someone to rock me, I just want to be rocked, I want to find a rocking chair.” Two CPS workers were following him and writing in their notebooks but not speaking to him or comforting him. Sally and I started toward him but his 8 year old brother came and picked him us saying, “I will take care of him.” He took the child to a rocking chair a held him in his lap. That little boy will always be in my mind. How can a beautiful healthy child be taken from a healthy, loving home and forced into a situation like that, right here in America, right here in Texas?

It would take a book to tell about this “incident”. There was so much that happened. This situation was a tragedy and surely illegal. Please pray fro these mothers and children every day.

Events in San Angelo

• We were told before we ever saw these woman that they would not talk with us and that they were dressed “fancy” and had the best of everything. That they would only respond to us with “You will have to talk to my lawyer” This was an absolute lie and it was to “brain wash” MH to think like CPS. I never heard talk to my lawyer once while I sat and talked and played with the children. Everyone was polite and nice but very upset and confused... They were gracious and tried very hard to not be afraid and nervous.

• We were also told to observe only and not to help. We were told we were surrounded by DPS and there were snipers on the buildings for out protection. Our badges were checked constantly by CPS to make sure we were not in the “wrong place.”

• The women and children were placed in barracks built in 1800 with no air and no indoor plumbing, 80 women and children on cots side by side, even pregnant ladies.

• Separated from older children (12 and up) and for days not even allowed to wave at them across the open field- told they would never see them again if they continued to wave-threatened with jail for waving at them.

• Constant reminders that the adult women were only guests and that they were not in charge of the children and what CPS did to them. They belonged to CPS now and they could talk, interrogate, separated and treat them any way they wanted. This included physical exams and x-rays without adult supervision.

• Not allowed to talk to the outside world.

• Women were constantly lied to about where their children where and when they could see their lawyers and about when they would be reunited with their children.

• No consideration for their diets so all the children had diarrhea for days.

. No consideration for food, (meals served as late as 8pm, when these children were used to going to bed by then) clothing ( Only 1-2 sets of clothing) or cleaning of sheets and clothing-washers were brought but others had to do the washing.

• The more uncomfortable they were the more CPS thought they would talk.

• We were told that if we interfered with any o the investigation we would be arrested and handcuffed and placed in jail. This was said often to MH workers.

• There were no baby beds or high chairs for days and often our woman had to go buy this for the women.

• The entire MH support staff was “fired” the second week; we were sent home due to being “too compassionate”.

• The children and women learned quickly who to trust and if you did not have a CPS badge they would talk with you.

• After being removed the women stopped talking to CPS and we were “begged” to come back. When we returned we were told again to not interfere but “to do what we did best”. THE WOMEN HUGGED US AND STARTED TALKING AGAIN. Then they sent them all home with no children.

• The children were kept inside the arena for 23 hours a day.

• The children arrived healthy and happy and left sick and crying.

• Mothers and children were watched like they were criminals and every word or deed they did was written down by CPS.

• CPS yelled at the children & would not allow the women to talk with their lawyers, deprived them of sleep and constantly accused them of things most of them did not understand.

• Never once did I see a mother loose her temper, strike out at a child or discipline a child in an inappropriate manner.

• The last 2 days were the worst- over 100 State troopers surrounded these women and children taken away from them and only the nursing mother’s could keep their children. They were then escorted to a bus by a CPS worker and a DPS officer.

• Again we were warned if we interfered or helped the women we would be arrested, place in handcuffs and would go to jail.

I am thankful I was able to go and see all of this. Never in all my life, and I am one of the older ladies, have I been so ashamed of being a Texan and seeing what and how our government agencies treat people. Thank God for the Mental Health field, who have not forgotten what compassion looks like and still tries to help everyone.

This must stop somewhere and somehow. This invasion of their property and disruption of their lives could happen to anyone anytime if all power and authority is give to CPS. Remember this was an anonymous phone call.

I participated in the San Angelo Incident for three consecutive weeks in April 2008.

When I first received notification from my supervisor to participate in the incident, I was anxious to take part as I had just received my licensure as a Licensed Professional Counselor, less then seven days prior. However, when I arrived on sire with the women and children, I quickly realized that there was nothing in any textbook that could prepare me for what I was about to experience. To sum it up, I felt as if I was working with my hand were tied behind my back, a blindfold on, and I was leading going on human instinct. I tossed all of my years of experience and textbook knowledge as I merely tried to engage in conversation with the women and children to build a rapport to gain their trust, and help them process what they were going through, and what they were going to experience in the days to follow. It ultimately boiled down to treating people with human respect. And you do not have to have advance training to bigher education to do that.

When I arrived in San Angelo the first week and participated in the debriefings, I was taken back by the information that was given to us by the representative of the Command Station. We were informed of how resistant and difficult this population of woman and children were. We were given instructions to “merely observe”, and be prepared for responses such as “I want to talk to my lawyer or not without my lawyer”. The information given was quite the contrary. We informed that our shifts would be twelve hour shifts, from 8:00 am to 8:00 pm.

The first week in San Angelo, I found the women and children to be quite pleasant. They were reserved, yet friendly when spoken to. Much of the women’s first comments were, “when are we going home?” or “what is going to happen to us?” All I could say was, “I’m not sure, but I can inquire and pass on the information when it is available.” Much of the women stated that the children were missing their school lessons and their fathers. They also asked when they could get their personal cell phones retuned to them. The informed me that their cell phones had been taken from them. When I attempted to ask the shelter manager for a phone or if I could let the woman use a cell phone, she commented to me (with the woman present, behind me), “I already told you, no cell phones”. The representative further stated to me “she is being manipulative; I’ve already told her no”. I was embarrassed when I turned around to speak to the woman because she heard the CPS worker’s comment.

The first three to four days that I was present at the Concho Valley Fort, the women and children were all well mannered and extremely cooperative. The unit of the Pavilion where I was stationed, my task was to offer comfort and support the women and children, referred to as “guests”. I worked alongside to BCFS workers and at least four CPS workers. Four CPS workers were stationed at the two doors of the unit. For the most part, they sat y the doors and observed the “guests” who were either discreetly breast feeding their children, on their cot, schooling/teaching their children, or feeding their children with food, drinks, and snacks. I was asked by the unit leader to sit outside of the unit, to monitor who was coming and going out. Most of my day was spent taking shift with MH workers due to the hot sun.

The second week I participated with the San Angelo Incident, the “guests” were housed at the Pavilion and Coliseum. My task on the second trip was to comfort and offer support to the children who were escorted to the Coliseum, and separated from their mothers. Most of the children stayed united with each other. The older children comforted the younger children when they began to cry and ask for their mothers. The older female children took on the role of mothers. They hugged and consoled the smaller children. It was touching to watch the intense bond these children had, regardless of the fact that they were not all blood siblings, but difficult at the same time. I found it extremely difficult to do my task of consoling and offer comfort when I was an emotional wreck myself. Even to be an observer at the facility was difficult. I could see the women and children being escorted by a string of law enforcement into the facility. They were escorted for the Coliseum into the Pavilion. CPS workers approached the “guests” and asked the women to follow them into another room while the children were asked to follow CPS workers and escorted them to the other end of the facility. As the children became scared and realized that their mothers were not going to return to them, they began to cry and became emotional. CPS responded by placing (bed) cots upright and building a was so that the children could not see what was going on at the other end of the facility. At one point, when the children were all separated, one male child who was about 9 years old, broke away from the rest of the children who were all hurtled say, “you’re the police, help us. Help me get my mother back. She has done nothing wrong”. The police officer could only respond by saying, “I can’t do that”. Once the children were gathered in one half of the facility with wall-to-wall cots forming a was, there were at least four policemen, over eight CPS workers and myself and another MH worker. Our job at that point was to merely observe, as the children found relief and comfort among themselves, and it seemed intrusive to disrupt the grieving process that was occurring. Within about an hour, our next task was to help CPS workers escort children in pairs of two to the restrooms, a few feet away from where they were to the restroom. For about thirty to forty-five minutes, I made repeated trips to the restroom with children and then escorted them back to their area. I also found it intrusive to go into the restroom and wait for the children to finish.

The third week in San Angelo was perhaps the most difficult. My main task was to escort the “guests” to the different shelters for both women and children. The bus I was on had two women and the rest were children ranging, form infants who were nursing to children ages 7 & 8 years old. The women were escorted on to the bus first and they were settled in with their infants. The children then joined them, in tears running to the two women. Within seconds, the two women had five or six children they were comforting. After about ten minutes on the road, the children were no longer crying. They were in awe of the bus and the sites on the way to San Antonio. One woman on the bus had a notebook and she documented all of the names of the workers on my bus were helping the two women and children on the bus. At one point, I joined a conversation of two young and relatively new CPS workers. They were upset with their lead on the bus because they believed they were asked to purposely mislead the women about if and when they could get the custody of their children back. Although the bus ride was only about three hours, the trip seemed much longer than that. Children were throwing up on the bus and the smell was unpleasant. The smell coming from the restroom was noticeable from the middle of the bus. Each bus had at least one EMS worker. A police officer, six CPS workers, one lead CPS worker and two mental health workers, and guests.

One of the MH workers from the Bexar County informed be on the way back to San Angelo from San Antonio that she was helping a child on the bus when she was interrupted by a CPS worker who told her she was told not to allow MH works interact with the children because they (MH workers) did not want to work with the children. The MH worker interjected and said that was not true. They only thing she did not like was the fact that she was not allowed (by CPS) to work with the children.

Overall, the opportunity to work with this population of people was invaluable. It was unique in the sense that I was able to observe the grieving process, dailiy, for several hours per day, for at lest three weeks. And thorugh it all,, the “guests” managed their grief with dignity and grace, given the circumstances. In the grand scheme of things, there was evident deterioration with regard to behavior, nutrition, anguish, health, etc.

However, the “guests” never showed any signs of disrespect to anyone, even if they were not given the respect, in return.

Once the above reports were sent to Perry's Office, he promised that an investigation would take place.

It never did. It never does. Texas CPS and CASA routinely abuses, rapes and kills it's foster and adoptive children with complete immunity.

"Preacher's Pray": A BOOK REVIEW

2011-06-20T10:59:00.000-04:00

I sat down to the TV yesterday and there was this weird looking dude in a silly looking cowboy hat and bad teeth being interviewed for a "Book" he had written. Within moments, I recognized him talking about a group of Mormons he was bashing, and his name popped up on the screen; it was good old Sam Brower, a jock sniffing, STD laden cop lover who fancies himself a "Private Investigator".

It appears that Sam isn't content with bailing his own family members out of jails and through divorce courts, he is still trying to persecute and spread the bull shit far and wide about fundamentalist Mormons.

His stories usually come from Vegas pole dancers and desert tramps, but lately he's been on his latest binge by guiding blimps from CAC and CASA through the twin towns of Hildale and Colorado City. The fact that the blimps had stolen their junket money from Texas children in need did not deter Lover Boy, just so long as he could get some notes for his new fantasy book.

In it, he mentions one Natalie Malonis. I guess he interviewed her in between her bouncing checks and pilfering child support money from her clients. Let's hope she's out of a Texas jail by now so she can groom more teenage girls to her "Lifestyle".

He also mentioned the "Fact" that the Mormons he was attempting to destroy were responsible for the shuttle explosion that killed the 7 astronauts. It appears that in addition to being cannibals, mass murderers, welfare cheats, baby killers, terrorists, child molesters and litterers, these dirty bastards also killed good old Christal McCauleff because they had made the O-Rings that failed. (They must have done that in between molesting children and then eating them.)

The interviewer naturally listened to all of this in awe of Sam, but never did question one word of Sam's horseshit.

So far, I've heard every story imaginable about these Mormon "Perverts", but NOT ONE documented fact to back the bull shit up.

Can I see a half eaten child please! Do they eat the fingernails too? How do they deal with the hairballs? Do they spice them with ketchup or mustard?

Can I see the Welfare checks cashed from the banks?

Can we locate the crematorium and get a picture of it?

I want to see all them dead babies the goons dogs found buried on Ranch.

Them "Perverts" had a huge supply of guns on the Ranch...Can we see one of them?

None of those children are ever educated...How the fuck are they getting into colleges?

How does Utah, Arizona and Texas deal with the hundreds of women per day who flock to them for protection from their abusers?

While jotting down his fantasies, is Sam jerking off with his right hand, or his left?

LET'S GIVE THE TWIN TOWN THE MEASLES.

2011-04-19T09:58:00.000-04:00

With all else miserably failing for them, the bigots and haters are running out of time. Just exactly HOW do we eradicate these filthy Mormons from the twin towns of Hildale, UT and Colorado City, AZ ?

The folks in the twin towns have been actively involved with setting up a "Lending Library" for the adults and children of the F LDS Church. I myself have been recruited in their efforts, and have sent shipments of books from Florida towards that effort. Today, those books have had to be destroyed.

During a recent inventory, it was discovered that several shipments of books were arriving from Europe unsolicited and without return addresses that could be verified. The question had to be asked; who was sending them, and how did they learn of the program?

Out of an abundance of caution given the times we live in and the poisonous atmosphere or hate and bigotry leveled against their women and children, taking the chance that these books were not "Indian blankets" arriving on their doorstep, the decision was made to destoy the books and avoid the possible "Necessity" of the State's of Utah and Arizona to "Protect and defend" the twin towns.

Having experienced the "Protection and defense" of their Trust, and having experienced that same level of "Protection" for their children in Texas, one can hardly blame them for looking upon these new "Gifts" as a Trojan horse sent by the bigots and haters.

As to "Who would EVER do such a thing?", I would have asked that very same question; BEFORE they kidnapped and raped 465 children for merely belonging to the "Wrong" religion.

" I have Immunity" Lindberg cries.

2011-04-17T11:29:00.000-04:00

Yo Denise:

Last month you had immunity as a Judge Denise baby, but after thumbing your nose at a Federal Court ORDER, you threw it away. When you wrote that 4 page hissy fit of yours, you acted under color of authority being TOLD you were in violation of the Constitutional rights of a group of people and you willingly chose to not only ignore the ORDER, but to defy it and order others to defy it.

Listen sweetie, let me explain to you how the "Law" works, because obviously, you are clueless;

A Court issues an ORDER, and you follow it. (Basic Law 101 unless you somehow fantasize that the 10th Circuit, or any other Court, is going to publicly sanction folks out there ignoring a Court Order because it's THAT time of the month.)

IF you think the order was wrong, you APPEAL the order in the proper forum, you don't just tell the Judge to GFHS (Think Dick Cheney), and continue to violate the Constitutional Rights of a religion because you don't agree with that particular religion and you have sworn (Weekly) to destroy it within the covenants of your own adopted religion. Your own religious beliefs are quant, but completely irrelevant. You don't squat on that Bench to dispense LDS Law, regardless of what you may think, you rule according to the Constitution of the United States and the Laws of the State of Utah, NOT by the arbitrary political whims of the Quorum of the 12.

You now claim "Immunity" because you are a squatting Judge. More Law for you honey; LAST MONTH you had immunity. When you willingly and illegally continued to violate the Constitutional Rights of the group before you AFTER you were lawfully notified and ORDERED to stop it, you threw your immunity in the toilet. You might not know that, but quite obviously, the Utah Supreme Court and the dying Attorney General know it as exemplified by their complete silence in defending your actions. You've been thrown under the bus, and you're too stupid to realize it.

In LEGAL terms, you are guilty of Contempt of Court. You openly REFUSED to follow an ORDER of a higher Court. You may not THINK the Fed's are a Higher Court, but that's irrelevant under the Law, isn't it?

One simply has to go to your own Court Clerk and pull up the cases where YOU found folks in Contempt. How many folks, regardless of whether they were right or wrong, got away with ignoring one of YOUR orders? What did you sanctimoniously tell them from your perch? Well baby, that pigeon's come home to roost! Now you want the 10th Circuit to tell Benson it was OK for you to give him your middle finger? I DON"T THINK SO!

So, when the 10th Circuit tells you that you fucked up, how fast do they then see your wrath? Let's face it baby, you told one Federal Court to get laid, why not tell another? After all, you know YOU are right, and they are wrong, so there's always the Supreme Court (The REAL one, not that joke in SL).

If I were one of the thousands of people whose Constitutional Rights you knowingly violated, I would send you a letter of deep thanks. Before you had your period and went off, it was probably going to take years, and hundreds of thousands of dollars in Legal costs for the FLDS to get finality to their case. Now, those same folks are going to be getting their property back and be able to sue for damages and Fiduciary Fraud at lightening speed thanks to the fast track pace you created. You just might be able to get this case all the way to the Supreme Court by Fall. They could NEVER have been able to do that without your help, and they owe you plenty.

Listen Denise, please do me a favor; When I pull up to the Drive-In and happen to have stopped into your new employers place of business, PLEASE don't short me a bag of fries or a Big Mac, it's just one big pain in the ass when I'm 5 miles down the road.

If you want to keep playing religious persecutor, you could always dump the LDS like you dumped the Catholics, and become a sheet head and do Sharia Law in Mecca.

Toodles,

Billy

NOW UTAH WANTS A "MULLIGAN" TOO.

Utah Supreme Court weighs whether to step into FLDS trust case

(Now that the shit hit the fan and they got whacked, they want another shot at it.)

By lindsay whitehurst

Utah Supreme Court justices questioned attorneys Tuesday on whether a federal judge elbowed out the state’s highest court when he ruled the state of Utah acted illegally in taking over a polygamous sect’s land trust.

“Isn’t that the sort of thing a state court should weigh in on before a decision of this magnitude is made?” asked Justice Thomas Lee during a rehearing of two pending appeal cases related to the trust.

(They HAD the chance back in August, 2010 and somebody on the Court came up with the idiotic idea of laches. NOW, they want to do it all over again, this time, trying to steal the trust "Legally".)

The trust case turned into a standoff this week when a state judge stepped up to defy a federal injunction temporarily returning control of the trust to the Fundamentalist Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints.

(If you want to call telling a Federal Judge to "Fuck off" a "Standoff", then I guess you might be right. Normally it's called Contempt of Court.)

“We’re at a pretty monumental crossroads here,” Lee said.

(Yeah, I would say so. Telling a Federal Judge to fuck himself isn't the smartest thing Lindberg could have done to advance her Judicial career.)

“We have two court systems lobbing controversial court orders.”

(We have a State Court choosing to ignore a Federal Court's Ruling.)

But the Utah Supreme Court could still be holding a trump card in the increasingly complex court battle.

(At least that's what the Utah Supreme Court hopes and prays. I sure do wish the Utah Court could show us ONE case where the State overruled the Federal Judiciary on Constitutional grounds.)

When U.S. District Judge Dee Benson made his decision, he was considering a case that the state high court had already dismissed because justices decided the FLDS waited too long to challenge the state takeover.

(Unlike the State Court, Benson KNEW that there's no such thing as laches applying to a Constitutional Right (Separation of Church and State).

Even though cases usually can’t be tried more than once, Benson decided he could rule because the Utah Supreme Court dismissed the case before considering the sect’s argument that the takeover violated the Constitution.

("USUALLY" is the operative word. Anybody recall Rodney King? When the State failed to convict, the Fed's moved in and did it for them. The Fed's pull that skam ALL the time with the State's blessings.)

But Benson didn’t ask the Utah Supreme Court if its decision was binding.

(It sounds like the Supreme's are saying the FLDS should have ignored the Ruling they made in August. Was this another "Not intended as a factual statement" on the part of the Supreme Court? Should the FLDS just have ignored them because they really didn't mean it?)

“We reviewed the facts. They were all presented to us,” Justice Matthew Durrant said. “If one’s claim is of significant magnitude, can one sit on that claim indefinitely?”

(Do the words; "Unalienable Rights" mean anything to you, you moron?)

If the justices decide their ruling was binding, it could sideline Benson — and his decision last week to temporarily give back control of the communal property trust to the FLDS Church.

(All the Justices have to do is to Rule that the State Courts trump the Federal Court's and Constitutional Law. The last time somebody tried that was 150 years ago at Ft. Sumpter.)

It would be the first time in six years that the Warren S. Jeffs-led sect would run the $110 million trust that holds most members’ homes, businesses and land in Hildale and Colorado City, Ariz., as well as those in a Canadian settlement.

(Irrelevant to the case at hand. Utah doesn't get to choose who the Pope is going to be.)

The Utah Supreme Court is also weighing how Benson’s decision affects two other pending cases it is considering in the long-running legal battle over the trust.

(They are "Considering" it about as earnestly as the Court is considering the criminal charges against Brucellosis.)

One deals with whether a handful of sect members should have a legal voice in the case and the other is about whether longtime FLDS attorney Rod Parker should be disqualified from representing the group.

(What case would that be? The one that was "Dismissed" last August? Why would they rule on a dead case?) (Do they REALLY believe they control who represents the FLDS? If they dismissed the case, what exactly would Rod be representing them for that is before the Court since August?)

Attorneys for the FLDS Church say the court should stay those decisions until the federal case — including an appeal of Benson’s decision — is worked out.

(Attorney's for the FLDS should be TELLING the Utah Supreme Court that it should not be suborning Contempt of Court by one of their bimbets.)

Attorneys for Utah and Arizona, as well as the accountant who runs the trust, disagree, saying the high court should make its own decisions, including the one that could affect the federal case.

("Runs" is actually past tense. As of Benson's Ruling, they no longer control the Trust and are in Contempt as long as they continue to ignore the Federal Courts Ruling. I would have asked for a DAILY monetary sanction against Lindberg until she complies, or gets herself a LEGAL Stay of the Federal Court Order.)

In the background, a series of recent excommunications by Jeffs and an internal church power struggle mean it’s unclear who’s a member of the church and who would be in charge of the trust if it changes hands.

“Someone’s got to sort this out,” Lee said.

(I know you have a pretty good ego Mr. Lee, but who runs the Church is absolutely none of your fucking business, just stick to Constitutional Law and get out of the Trust business as you've been properly Ordered by a REAL Court of Law.)

ARIZONA GETS REAL WHILE UTAH TRIES TO SAVE FACE.

2011-04-06T04:45:00.000-04:00

For those who do not remember it, this "Deal" Utah is claiming as a Victory for it self concerning the U.E.P. Trust is about as much a "Victory" as the return of the children held by Texas was for the CPS and CASA dykes and "Judge" barbie.

As you may recall back then, Texas said that while the children were going to be going back home, that DID NOT mean that CPS and CASA were going to be putting their tail between their legs and running away, they were still going to "Monitor and control" the children. They were still going to be involved with them, and their parents in seeing to it that the children were "Safe". Sure they were!

They haven't been back since and every single child is completely free of their abuse and neglect.

Now tearing a page out of Texas history comes the State of Utah trying to save face.
They are claiming that they will give the F LDS Church back the Trust "For now" and with conditions.

Mark now claims that at some point a year or so down the road, he will Appeal the bitch slapping of Lindberg and retake the Trust. The success of that Appeal won't come in the Utah AG's lifetime, that's a certainty, but I guess it does wrap up some loose ends for him.

He also thinks the Trust is going to pay Wisan, and that Wisan is going to stay on as Trespasser in Chief. The fact is, once the Trust is back under the Churches control, like the children's return, he can huff and puff all he wants, it's no longer his call.

Wisan and the ambulance chasers along with the book selling pole dancers can certainly sue for the money they are owed, but all they need to do is to convince a real Court of Law that the Trust owes a debt incurred while it's Rights were being unconstitutionally violated and they have to pay their thief's for their efforts. Good Luck on THAT one brucie!

The only entity being somewhat realistic in this situation is the State of Arizona who will not sign off on handing the Trust back. They at least are not delusional in thinking that the Church is going to remain under Utah's boot while they run to the 10th Circuit for salvation. Arizona says there's no way they're going to hand over the Trust to Warren Jeffs. One has to wonder what they don't understand about Judge Benson's Ruling that Warren Jeff's has NOTHING to do with the un constitutionality of the theft of the Trust. Arizona simply has no say in where the Trust goes.

The bottom line after all the pissing that went on today by everybody is that Judge Benson will be deciding the issue since Utah and Arizona STILL THINKS they are in the Trust business. What they all need to do is to sit down and read Benson's 48 pages of bitch slapping and live with it, face, or no face.

UTAH DECIDES IT WILL APPOINT CHURCH LEADERS.

2011-04-05T18:31:00.000-04:00

In a move Adolf would have been proud of, the State of Utah has decided IT will now tell the F LDS Church who is going to be their Bishop and Stake President.

The State is in Federal Court TODAY to explain how it is going to get itself OUT of Church business after un Constitutionally taking over the Churches Trust, but I guess they like being hauled into Federal Court, and spending all those Tax dollars defending the un defendable, that they want to show the Judge how REALLY ignorant about the Law they can get. NOW, The State of Utah will tell the Church who their Leader is, in their opinion. I wonder what the Feds are going to be saying about THIS takeover?

Control of polygamous sect appears headed to court

SALT LAKE CITY — Utah state officials are blocking any further attempts by rival church leaders to seize control of Warren Jeffs' polygamous sect, which likely means a judge will decide.

The commerce department's Division of Corporations has placed an administrative hold on the two legal entities that comprise the Hildale, Utah-based Fundamentalist Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. The hold is in place until May 2, according to a memo from the division's director, Kathy Berg.

Last week, church elder William E. Jessop, 41, filed to take over the church presidency from Jeffs, who is currently in a Texas jail awaiting trials on criminal charges of bigamy and sexual assault of a minor.

Days later, Jeffs loyalist Boyd Knudsen shot back with a counter-filing that removed Jessop and reinstated Jeffs. Knudsen, the registered agent for the church corporation, also claimed in twin affidavits that Jessop had falsely claimed any authority in the church.

In a second set of affidavits filed Monday, Knudsen claimed some 4,000 members unanimously voted Sunday to support Jeffs' presidency.
The papers also say the same group renounced Jessop as "not a part of said church."

It's not clear from the filing where the "general assembly" of church members occurred. The papers say church members stood to "raise their hands and voices" in Jeffs' favor.

Utah Department of Commerce spokeswoman Jennifer Bolton said Tuesday she could not say which person is now recognized by the state as the FLDS president.
When types of disputes arise in corporations, commerce officials grant the parties up to 30 days to settle the matter, or look to the courts to settle the dispute.

Rod Parker, a Salt Lake City attorney who represents the church in civil court matters, declined to comment on Tuesday.

A message left for church spokesman Willie Jessop also was not returned.
Jeffs, 55, has been the president and ecclesiastical head of the FLDS church since 2002.

In 2007, after being convicted in Utah of rape as accomplice charges, he handed over the job as president to another church leader. In January, however, that elder resigned and Jeffs reinstated himself.

William Jessop, the former bishop of the FLDS border towns of Hildale and Colorado City, Ariz., has said his attempt to assume the presidency fulfills a 2007 directive from Jeffs himself.

"I know of your ordination, that you are the key holder, and I have sent a note with my signature so that there is no question," Jeffs told Jessop in the Jan. 24, 2007, telephone call.

Jeffs told his family and other church leaders the same thing in other calls made at the same time. Recordings of the calls were released by the Utah courts as part of Jeffs' case.

Jeffs is set for trials later this year in Texas. A court has entered not guilty pleas on his behalf. His Utah convictions were overturned last year.

D-DAY FOR UTAH TO GET OUT OF THE TRUST BUSINESS

2011-04-05T08:18:00.000-04:00

Today is the day that the Federal Court has given the State's of Utah and Arizona, as well as a jerk Utah Judge and her criminally charged accountant, to explain exactly how it's going to get it's ass out of the United Effort Plans Trust.

Reversing all of Wisan's criminal activity over the past 6 years will be the least of his worries, since his un constitutional involvement in somebody else's business now leaves him wide-open to change his Misdemeanor charges to Felonies. His failure to immediately cease and desist after being informed of his illegal practices by a Federal Judge isn't going to help his case much, since he can's hide under the skirts of Dan Fisher's puppet anymore by claiming ignorance of the Constitution or "I was only following Orders". When a Federal Judge tell's you you're being a bad boy, you DON"T turn around and moon him Brucie boy!

For Mark's part, he'll claim "I told you so" to his bosses in the LDS who have been giving him his marching orders in this case, but he really isn't all that concerned with this case in view of his condition. A more pressing matter is his choice of who he's going to be meeting in the hereafter. I wouldn't be too worried about Barbara or William Jessop, but hopefully, Val will have some words about being persecuted to death by Mark. I know damned sure he wouldn't want to meet me!

The good news for Mark is that he will now be able to claim his brides and become a polygamist in Heaven. Ironic; the man spends his life on earth persecuting the same folks he yearns to be in Heaven. As an outsider, perhaps the Quorum of the 12 can explain how this Doctrine is not the most hypocritical pack of bullshit in the world! Do they believe the Jews eat pork chops up there? Do they believe Muslims love their Christian brothers? Fascinating!

As for Denise, all her hopes and dreams of a "Higher calling" on the Bench have gone up in polygamist smoke. Maybe she should have stayed a Catholic and become a Miami pole dancer. Well, cheer up Denise, you can always get a job cleaning teeth in Dan's place. Maybe you could write a book. How about; "How I partied during Law School". We could file it in the Dewey Decimal System under "Self Destructive Behaviors".

As for the State's; You boys need to go back to the budget room and figure out how your going to reimburse 6,000 individuals (Plus their relatives) who were screwed by you over the past 6 years out of their rightful property.

Yes, it is true that these people you hate so much are not litigious and probably won't sue your ass off along with Denise's tits; but at the rate Warren's going, there aren't going to be many followers left to turn the other cheek, and you're going to have some pretty savvy lawyers reminding those now left of the kind of payday they're looking at to meet their "Just wants and needs".

JOHNNIE HANNA IS A COP

2011-04-03T09:19:00.000-04:00

Johnnie Hanna is a cop from Texas who has had a hard-on for Mormons in his midst since day one of the attack on the Ranch in Eldorado and the subsequent kidnapping, rape and abuse of 465 Mormon children by Texas CPS and CASA.

In my opinion, he was infuriated by the return of those Mormon children to "His" community when the Texas Court of Appeals bitch-slapped the local demagogic "Judge" who is bent on persecuting the Mormons, barbie walthers.

Ever since, the boy with the banana in his pants has been on a personal crusade to avenge that "Travesty of Justice" as he see's it, and has gone out of his way to see to it that these pack of vermin hang from the nearest tree. (Almost back to the good old days.)

My first encounter with Johnnie occurred through some e mails between me and a chick who was trying to groom one of the Mormon children from her bedroom at 1:00 in the morning. The girl really didn't want to go muff diving with the bitch, and she tried to get rid of her. Naturally, barbie and Johnnie thought the chick was doing a great service to the child, so they defended her actions. The chick then tried to use Johnnie against me. I guess Johnnie knew it would be tough to try to explain in open Court why Texas was aiding and abetting the girls grooming by the dyke, so he never pursued the issue with me as the dyke wanted him to.

Following that, Johnnie seemed to appear from under every rock in the case of the kidnapped children:

When the stolen "Evidence" was leaked, it was Johnnie's dated signature on the back of it that appeared in his own hand writing. (He gave out the documents PRIOR to the Search Warrant date that authorized it's taking in the first place)

As the "Official" keeper of the "Evidence", it was Johnnie who had control of the unredacted pictures of children that suddenly and mysteriousely appeared on the Internet. This is against Texas "Law", but lets keep in mind that Johnnie is a cop. Cops in the U.S. are allowed to lie and to fabricate evidence. They can even pretend to be lawyers representing defendants to gain evidence, so passing out pictures of children for folks to droll over was probably rather minor to Johnnie, so long as he had his lynching jones satisfied.

Folks in other States suddenly and mysteriously had possession of the "Evidence" under Johnnies control.

Good old Johnnie was up to his ass two-belts deep in "Evidence" and he just couldn't seem to distribute it around fast enough so long as it put them creepy Mormons necks in those nooses.

Now Johnnie has taken it upon himself to supply that same "Evidence" to another Country to try to get THEM to hang these Mormons for him. Is Canada a County in Texas? Is the "Evidence" his personal property to distribute as he feels fit, or is it part of a criminal trial, subject to Chain of Custody? If the "Evidence" is being freely poured over and distributed to every bigot and hater in two countries, how is its authenticity and integrity being maintained? Does Johnnie even know who has been sifting through the Records and altering them or has he just thrown the door open?

In 2008, Johnnie found 31 "Children" on the Ranch who were either pregnant, or already had children. This "Proved" these Mormons needed to hang. Johnnies problem was that the oldest of his fantasy "Children" was 37. His story fell apart and Johnnie had to move onto the next story. It wasn't as juicy, but he chose "Broken bones". (We all know how that bullshit turned out.)

Now Johnnie has found another "31 children" in Canada. Naturally, Daffy Bramham is all over this new revelation from Johnnie like a horsefly is to a pile of shit.

My only question is this:

What is it about the number 31 that attracts Johnnie so much?

Is that how many donuts he can eat at a sitting?

Is that his I.Q.?

Was that his age when he graduated Junior High School?

Is that the number of virgins he's expecting when he dies?

I know what it isn't: Like the 31 "little girls" in Texas, it isn't reality. Then again, it doesn't HAVE to be reality, it's a headline, and folks never forget headlines.
After all, we all know all them boy babies were killed and buried all over the Ranch, don't we Johnnie?

So Johnnie; What is it about little girls and the number 31 that has you drooling?

Dear Sirs:

I write this letter asking for a formal investigation into the financial practices of the above indicated entities, CASA of Tom Green County, Texas and CAC of Tom Green County, Texas. Upon information and belief, I believe both entities are using public funds for their private, personal use to avoid paying Tax.

Both entities refuse to divulge public information concerning their financial activities and "Official" travel expenses and that makes this formal request necessary in order to ascertain the proper use of 501 (c) (3) funds for the charities under their control.

No information could be ascertained through public filings of both these entities. CASA's last "Annual" 990 Return filed on their behalf was in 1997, and the last "Annual" 990 filed by CAC was in 2008. Both filings were made though the Office in Ogden.

We are further hindered from independently verifying proper use of these public funds by the fact that local police, Sheriff's and Texas Rangers refuse to become involved considering the Director of CAC in Tom Green County is also the wife of an Administrative Judge in the County, Mike Brown.

This problem is further exacerbated by the fact that the Texas Rangers, for whatever reason, seem to be incapable of conducting any investigations into wrongdoing in this County due to an ongoing persecution of a local religious group by local judicial and political entities. (In over 3 years now, the Texas Rangers have been "Unable" to establish whether or not an out of State hoax telephone call took place within the County resulting in the illegal seizure of 465 children by the County.

In view of these facts, I ask that you independently determine if CASA and CAC public funds have, and are, being used for personal and private use by members of this particular CASA and CAC group including it's Directors, Debra Brown of CAC and Shirley Davis of CASA.

These are the facts as they are known:

On at least two occasions (April, 2009 and Sept. 2009), Ms. Brown and Ms. Davis, along with 4 other members of CAC and CASA flew to Las Vegas, Nevada.
While there, they rented cars, stayed in hotels, took site-seeing tours, and spent funds, all paid for through CAC and CASA funding. They were not in Nevada on "Official" CAC or CASA business according to the National CASA office in Washington State.

IF these expenses were later reimbursed to CAC and CASA (Which I highly doubt), I submit upon information and belief that no attempt to pay any Taxes due for these expenses were ever made. (At least not prior to a complaint filed with CASA by me) Therefore, the use of the funds as legitimate CASA and CAC expenses were illegal under the Rules and Regulations of the I.R.S.

At MINIMUM, the taxes owed should be reimbursed and the use of these funds in the future should NOT be considered as the private piggy bank or expense account of CASA and CAC employee's and volunteers regardless of who your husband might be.

With one out of every six children in the County being a victim of abuse or neglect according to figures from the Texas Department of Children and Family Services, I would expect a better use of funds intended for those children than using them for private junkets to Las Vegas by the very people charged with protecting them.

Should you have any questions or require additional documentation, please feel free to contact me at your convenience.

Respectfully,

WHO DEFINES YOU?

2011-03-31T09:18:00.000-04:00

A message for my Fundamentalist Mormon friends:

Any casual review of the current stories out there in the media reveals that the likes of Carolyn Jessop, Becky Musser, Brent Hunsaker, Daphne Bramham and Randy Mankin are defining the F LDS Church and its people.

A more hateful pack of religious bigots and liars would be hard to find. They all share a common agenda: to destroy a Church and its people, down to the last man, woman and child.

Yet, when media wants a sound bite, they dig under the rocks and go find these worms, every single time.

Do ANY of these people know you? Do they know your children, or anything about your life? Do these people speak for you?

They do if you allow them to, and they will unless you speak up for yourselves.

Tell your Elders to appoint someone within your Church and groups to speak for you and to answer the lies, distortions and petty gossip with the Truth.

Tell the media you will no longer allow yourselves to be defined by vermin and filth who would sell their souls for 30 pieces of silver. The F LDS Church is NOT a cult, it is a religious institution. Who tells them that?

You prayed to Heavenly Father to return the children to their homes. He granted you your prayers. Now stand up for Him and let people know who and what you believe in. There CANNOT be any shameful or prideful behavior in doing that, can there?

ANSWERING THEM NOTHING

2011-03-30T09:17:00.000-04:00

What is occurring within the F LDS Mormon Church right now is most certainly a private matter and nobody's business but the members of that Church. That's a fact!
However it is also a fact that what went on inside the gates of the Yearning For Zion Ranch in Texas was also a private matter, just as would be the case in anyone else's private home. But that didn't stop the tank and the SWAT teams did it?

More than anything else, what created the attack on the Ranch was the silence of those within when the gossip mongers, bigots, haters and the voyeurs were given a clean slate to offer up the most vile and untruthful slander and libel possible, and it went unchallenged. The pain, sorrow and hurt experienced by the children was a direct result of "Answer them nothing". It egged on the likes of Carolyn, Flora and Randy Mankin.

Now today, we have another situation within the Church, and it is being defined by the likes of Brent Hunsaker and Daphne Bramham, without a doubt, the biggest bigots in town. Does the community wait until they provoke an attack on the twin towns and Bountiful? Does the world get to "See" the F LDS Church through the eyes of these dreck?

In today's world, people believe what is said and printed in the media. That being the case, I would beseech Elder Jessop and the Leadership of the Church to assign a spokesperson from within the Church to speak to the media on behalf of the members rather than to leave it to the apostates who would like nothing better than to see each and every member of the Church dead. Not figuratively, but literally DEAD.

The mistakes of the past need to be rolled back or erased. The children have every right to be raised in the light of day and not have to hide behind walls. You have a wonderful and blessed way of living, and it needs to be celebrated for the world to see, not hidden away like a deep dark family secret; that only encourages the voyeurs of the world and denies you your deserved privacy to Worship as you see fit.

OBSERVATIONS FROM A FRIEND

2011-03-29T13:40:00.000-04:00

Being a history buff since the earliest years, all my knowledge concerning Mormons came from my childhood reading about Joseph Smith, Brigham Young, and the great trek to Utah. Later on, I heard about the prurient interests some folks harbored concerning them, but for the most part, chalked it all off to one more form of human voyeurism; Some folks lead such boring and un-fulfilling lives, they simply have to find out whats going on in the other fellows bedroom. If they can't find out, you MUST be doing something wrong!

To me, prior to 2008, Mormons were a group of people who practiced a religion, not unlike Catholics, Protestants, Jews or Hindu's. It was their religion, and their business. Then along came a pack of goons complete with a tank, snipers, SWAT teams, and a group of "Women" I knew from prior personal experience who stole children for fun and profit from parents.

A week prior to April 3, 2008 I underwent surgery for cancer and found myself bed ridden and in front of the computer watching a travesty unfold before my eyes. Knowing the enemy, I knew what they were dragging the men, women and especially the children through, and I resolved to help these people in whatever way I could.

It didn't take all that long to discover that these people were Mormons, and THAT was their great "Crime" in the eyes of the locals and the State of Texas. From the day they moved into town, they were persecuted in the local press on a daily basis for being Mormon. Special Laws were passed against them in Austin for being Mormon, and meetings were held constantly to "Develop" ways to get rid of them. It all came to a head when a professional "Victim" of child abuse used by LE in Colorado by the Local police and FBI made a few simple hoax phone calls that not one Texas Ranger in the entire State seemed to be able to trace, not even 3 years later.

Before all was said and done, Texas CPS and CASA took 465 children, and another 170 women into captivity and took away their Bibles, their access to lawyers, their phones and camera's, and then raped the children under the guise of "Sane" examinations over the next 8 weeks. The attack on the Ranch was orchestrated, financed and staffed by the Texas Supreme Court. Finally, the case was heard before a real court of law, and the children were Ordered returned to their homes and families. Having nothing to legally hang their hats on after Childress failed them, the Texas Supreme Court had no choice but to uphold the Appeals Courts Decision, and the children were then returned home.

I looked forward to returning my life to "Normal" as did my family. That's is exactly what I would have done, had Texas, Utah, Arizona, the Federal government and everybody else just left these people alone, but their persecution of these particular Mormons had only begun. From Harry Reid to a jerk dentist in Utah, their goal is to destroy a group of people for their religion. That might have been OK in 1939 Germany, but it's NOT the America I was brought up in.

So far, the FLDS has won every single case against it that has been heard in a real court of law:

Arizona knew its "Witnesses" would destroy their case against Warren Jeffs and dismissed all charges WITH PREJUDICE. (They can never be brought again).

Utah's conviction against Warren Jeffs was reversed on Appeal, and they have those same "Witnesses" to contend with and would not retry him. Today, Warren Jeffs stands convicted of NO CRIMES whatsoever. (He's "Cleaner" than Tom DeLay).

The State of Utah and Judge Lindberg, who stole the U.E.P. Trust from these Mormons were recently HUMILIATED by the Federal Courts for un- Constitutionally taking (Stealing) the Trust in the first place.

Now Texas will convict Mr. Jeffs of crimes based upon stolen evidence as they have for 7 men before him. It remains to be seen if the Federal Courts will allow stolen evidence introduced into a trial, but I think NOT.

In the meantime, the Mormons have a man, who they consider to be their leader in the custody and control of the State for the past 6 years on charges that no longer exist. The sanest of men would crack, and the strongest of men could be subdued.

Just as the State of Arizona and the Sheriff made jokes about abusing Warren Jeffs while he was in their custody, Texas also uses Mr. Jeffs for their own amusement and purposes. A rational man would know that writing a letter to the President of the United States is an idiotically foolish thing to do. Does any rational person believe he would actually read it, let alone act on it? For Texas, this became a big joke. Texas has placed a phone at Warren's disposal in jail. Is that phone there to aid Warren Jeffs, or to allow him to be taped making private phone calls to implicate himself or make a fool of himself? After 6 years in an American gulog, it's NOT all that hard to do.

Warren understood all of this, and on January 24, 2007 he placed a private call to South Dakota where he spoke to William Edson Jessop. He knew he was being taped. This is a transcript of that call;

Warren Jeffs: Hello

William E. Jessop: Hello sir.

Warren Jeffs: You can hear me?

William Jessop: Yes sir.

Warren Jeffs: Okay. I have this message. The lord has intervened and detected me to myself. He has shown me that I have not held priesthood since I was 20 years old, having been immoral with a sister and a daughter. And father pointing his finger to me was father's test on all of us.

I know of your ordination, that you are the keyholder and I have sent a note with my signature verifying it so that there is no question, according to Section 43, although not valid.

All the ordinance work since father's passing has to be redone and there's many men that were sent away that do hold priesthood and their families will need to be put back.

And then to say this to you. I am one of the most wicked men on the face of the earth since the days of Father Adam.

Okay?

Have you been able to hear me?

William Jessop: Sure.

Warren Jeffs: Thank you and goodbye. You'll need to . . . [Jessop interrupts him]

William Jessop: Good luck.

Warren Jeffs: Thank you.

On Monday, March 28, 2011, the following was submitted to the State of Utah:

"I, the undersigned, William Edson Jessop, have been called as the President of The Fundamentalist Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints in conformity with the constitution, canons, rites, regulations, or discipline of such church, and by virtue of such calling I am the corporation sole of The Corporation of the President of the Fundamentalist Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints, organized under the laws of the State of Utah."

Having first hand knowledge of what jails and prisons can do to people, I'm both hoping and praying that the members of the FLDS both lift the burden of the Presidency off Warren's shoulders so he can concentrate on the Legal battles ahead, while the Stewardship of the Church and its peoples just wants and needs can be met by those in a position to be able to do so.

As it stands today, the Church is running rudderless and defenseless within a sea of sharks all too ready to destroy it.

Much is made about the FLDS being a Patriarchal Society. I know far too many women in the religion to believe that pack of malarkey. The women and girls I have come into contact with are some of the strongest individuals on the planet. They proved that on the Ranch, they prove it every day in the Creek and in Bountiful. If the FLDS is not to be destroyed by the apostates and the government, it will be because the women will simply not allow it to happen, period.

As an outsider, a gentile, any name you wish to call me, I implore you to rally behind Elder Jessop and save the Church rather than to splinter into yet another group which can ONLY aid the enemy of your children and yourselves. Don't think for one moment that they don't intend to raise your children in "Proper" religions, just ask the women on the Ranch how close they came to having their children raised as "Good Baptists".

I love you guys a whole big bunch, and just don't want to see you scatter yourselves to the winds. Please.
