"Burn her! Burn! Burn her! Burn her!"
"How do you know she is a witch?"
"She looks like one."
The photos of Jeffs kissing the young girl are of one of his own “wives”, named Loretta. He was convicted in Utah of being an accomplice to rape for forcing a 14 year old girl named Elissa Wall to marry her 19 year old cousin. He is currently on trial in Arizona for several other charges relating to sex with minor girls.
The photos being introduced into evidence were quite relevant to the specific family into whose case they were introduced. The father identified the girl as his own 12 year old sister, and the mother told the court that Warren Jeffs “is perfect in my eyes”. This tells us all we need to know about these parents views regarding allowing adolescent girls to be raped in the name of religion. The father knew his 12 year old sister was being raped and didn’t report it to authorities, and the mother knows Warren Jeffs raped a 12 year old and still thinks he is “perfect”. They are clearly not fit to parent children at this time. Hopefully, they’ll get their heads fixed and eventually be fit to parent their children.
