## Resource

A polygamous cult leader already serving 50 years for federal child sex crimes now faces fresh state charges after girls were found trapped in a sweltering trailer he was hauling through Arizona. Convicted for forcing underage girls into sex acts and plotting to snatch them from custody, his reign of abuse included over 20 “spiritual wives,” 10 under 18. He’s even got a Netflix series about his downfall — and he’s still trying to defend himself, claiming he never hurt anyone. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
