Keywords anticult movement (ACM), apostates, child abuse, Fundamentalist Latter Day Saints (FLDS), polygamy, Yearning For Zion Ranch Reviewed by Spencer L. Allen, University of Pennsylvania, [email protected]. edu Identifying herself as Sarah Jessop—pregnant mother, abused 15 year old, and the seventh wife of the fictitious Yearning for Zion (YFZ) Ranch resi- dent Dale Barlow—Rozita Swinton’s call to the domestic violence hotline on April 3, 2008, set in motion a rescue mission and Texas state raid that would become the largest state custodial detention of children in U.S. history. As Saints under Siege demonstrates, however, Swinton—a 33-year-old woman from Colorado Springs—may have served as the catalyst for the raid on the 800-member Fundamentalist Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints (FLDS) community near Eldorado, Texas, and the removal of 439 children from their families, but the raid on the YFZ Ranch was itself inevitable, given the state’s interest in minimizing the presence and influence of the FLDS community in Schleicher County, Texas. Saints under Siege’s strength resides in its multi-author and multi-hermeneutic approach as each chapter consid- ers a distinct set of historical, cultural, and political/legal realities underlying the raid. -

The Deseret News
The Deseret News SALT LAKE CITY 15C Nostrums in the Newsroom Raised Sights and Raised Expectations at the DeseretNews By Paul Swenson Nineteen Hundred and Seventy-Six was not a dull year for the 127-year-old Deseret News. Melvin Dummar, a Box Elder County service station operator, was named, along with The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, as a major beneficiary in a purported Howard Hughes will. Idaho's Teton Dam burst, leaving hundreds homeless in the path of the flood. Rep. Allan Howe was arrested and convicted of soliciting sex in Salt Lake City. Theodore Bundy, a University of Utah law student and former aide to the Governor of Washington, was found guilty of attempted kidnapping. In addition, the newspaper's "Pinpoint" investigative team capped its second year of existence with a Sigma Delta Chi award for the year's best piece of investigative print journalism in Utah, a documented indictment of misspent Salt Lake County funds. And then there was Gary Gilmore. Before his execution, Jan. 17, 1977, Gilmore and the press were locked in a painful embrace that neither party could—or would—quit. The manipulative Gilmore engineered the newsflow on front pages worldwide with a degree of control he had never been able to apply to his own life. It was an irresistable news story: a brutal killer who wanted to die, and in the process challenged the hypocrisy behind a death sentence that seemed tortuously slow to culminate. Never mind that Gilmore was the first person likely to be executed in the United States in nine years and that the future of capital punishment in America perhaps hung in the balance. -

Fundamentalist Attitudes Toward the Church: the Sermons of Leroy S- Johnson
Fundamentalist Attitudes toward the Church: The Sermons of Leroy S- Johnson Ken Driggs AT THE AGE OF NINETY-EIGHT, Leroy Sunderland Johnson died in Hildale, Utah, on 25 November 1986. Johnson presided over one of the oldest and largest fundamentalist Mormon groups, organizers of the United Effort Trust in Colorado City, Arizona, formerly known as Short Creek. Accepted as a prophet by his group of fundamentalist Mormons, Johnson's thirty-two years as senior member of the Council of the Priesthood was a time of stability, growth, financial success, and greater public acceptance. An obituary in the January 1987 Sunstone magazine called him "a dominant figure in post-manifesto polygamy for over half a century." A number of fundamentalist groups have broken with the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints over plural marriage and related issues. While the various groups most often sympathize with each other, their philosophies and leaders differ distinctly. Johnson's group has never adopted a name, identifying themselves as the fundamentalist arm of the Church. They emphatically reject the violence that has some- times brought other groups into the public eye and shaped impressions KEN DRIGGS has previously published in Dialogue, The Journal of Church and State, The Georgia Historical Quarterly, and Utah Historical Quarterly. He has recently fin' ished a Master of Laws Degree (LLM) at the University of Wisconsin. 40 DIALOGUE: A JOURNAL OF MORMON THOUGHT of Mormon fundamentalism. Like most fundamentalists, Johnson's group tends to be reclusive, adopting styles and customs distinctly out of fashion. They model their religious organization after the nineteenth- century united order.
