This is truly shocking, and powerful evidence that the FLDS cult is damaging and abusing each successive generation of offspring.

fumarase deficiency

I'm surprised it took this long for anyone--us, bloggers, drive-bys, etc.--to mention fumarase deficiency with the FLDS'ers. Something of a modern day Hapsburg Chin if you will...

We’ve been talking about this birth defect for over a week.

You must have missed it. :)

I definitely missed it, and a search did not bring this article up. I thought it would be useful and germane to the current discussions.

Dump the “parents” into a tar pit.

Habsburg Chin. I had to look that up:

This reporter wrote about this disease among the FLDS back in late 2005.

I don’t think it was posted as an article, only as a link within threads. It’s still good stuff.

That may be why we are hearing rumors of children and women being moved around...expanding the gene pool.

you’d think that if I were to use a semi-obscure reference I’d at least try and spell the thing correctly. Grrrr....

Another story from 2006 about FLDS fumarase:

It’s heartbreaking.

this is shocking......but without even knowing about this, the people of this cult all LOOK strange in similar ways.....I guessed inbreeding would do that...

"breeding program "

the Mormon historians might want to call what they did a "program" but it was not about breeding, it was about sexual conquest.....let's not kid ourselves here....

Looks to me like they are going to breed themselves out of existence. Sooner or later more and more kids are going to be born with this disorder. Once it hits a 50% birth rate of kids born with the disorder they are done. Remember the Egyptian royalty of ancient times.

Marriages among first and second cousins have been common for decades in the community, where religious doctrine requires men to have at least three wives to gain eternal salvation.

I bet there are also a number of uncle/niece marriages.
