Mackey vii viii ESCAPE* Carolyn Jessop** PRELIMINARY REMARKS The Fundamentalist Latter Day Saints (FLDS) Church is a breakoff from the mainstream Mormons (insofar as Mormons are mainstream) that retains the illegal practice of polygamy. Carolyn Blackmore, now Carolyn Jessop, was a sixth-generation member of that cult, in which you can obtain membership only by birth. Not long after her eighteenth birthday, Carolyn was awakened at 2:00 in the morning. Her father had wondrous news: The prophet of God had had a revelation that she was to be assigned to a fifty- five-year-old contractor in the cult, Merril Jessop. Jessop was a complete stranger to her, other than that he was the father of some children from his current three wives with whom she went to school. This marriage was to occur in two days. Evidently, the prophet's revelation had been inspired by Merril Jessop, himself, though Jessop realized as soon as he saw Carolyn that he had given the prophet the wrong name. He lusted not after Carolyn, but after her sixteen-year-old sister, Annette. But Jessop was stuck with Carolyn, for the prophet is infallible; his revelation could not be revised. As for Carolyn, marriage to Jessop meant three obligations: (1) to bear Jessop's children, (2) to help care for the scores of children from his current three wives-soon to be many more, and (3) to obey Jessop completely and utterly. Edited transcript of address delivered at the Annual Convention of the International Society of Barristers, Lanai, Hawaii, 10 March 2011. For source of facts not stated in address, see Escape. Author, with Laura Palmer, of Escape (2007) and of Triumph (2010). 1 2 INTERNATIONAL SOCIETY OF BARRISTERS QUARTERLY The last of these obligations became increasingly difficult for Carolyn to honor, for Jessop's rule over his household was frequently irrational and its management delegated largely to his domineering third wife, the only one of his wives he truly loved. His relationship with Caroline was emotionally loveless. Jessop's pronounced favoritism for his third wife spawned psychological abuse of his other wives and, occasionally, the physical abuse of their children. Carolyn was one of the few women in the FLDS community who had a college education, though this was initially interrupted by her marriage to Jessop. Between babies, she finished college and began teaching second grade. Although some education-even in public schools-was permitted while Rulon Jeffs was prophet, any meaningful education of the community's children was ended by his favorite son, Warren Jeffs. Warren had first assumed authority over the FLDS-run schools, then, increasingly, as his father fell ill and eventually died, the role of prophet itself. Jeffs ruled the cult with a tyrannical and increasingly irrational hand. Though Rulon had actually approved of Carolyn's going to college
