Recently Warren Jeffs was charged with
statutory rape and many other disgusting/perverse things. I say
„thankfully someone has gotten even a sliver of justice“, because so many
people haven't. It's sad how someone has to do something as bad as
child brides for them to get caught (or tax evasion), and they don not get caught due to abuse
of an adult, mind control or other reasons. I hope that the girls who were
forced to marry him (and were forced into having sex on videotape in
front of a bunch of men) will find some peace and more justice
through all of this. I hope the same sort of thing happens to LEADER* (I wish I could say his name without being worried about being sued). LEADER* didn't marry younger girls, but there is enough anecdotal
evidence that he had „sex“ (barely, since he has so much control)
with them along with married women, all while preaching fidelity and
family. Sex is suppose to have no control aspect to it, intercourse should not be consented based on power. Leaders have influence and control over their followers and the
followers will agree to things that they would otherwise not, had
there been no control/influence. In cultic studies, they call this
influence „undue influence“. Much like statutory rape laws,
people are being told by those in control that something is okay even
if it's not. I want justice for our cult and every other cult out
there, I'm so sick of hearing cult leaders get away with sexual and
physical abuse, and getting caught financially. To me, getting them
financially is easy, but people do not realize all that was done and
thus it is „easy“. Easier to judge, easier to prosecute, defend
and dismantle. Just easy.
p.s. quotes are funny since I did this in Word which thinks I was typing in German so used the german symbols for quotes.
