Prophet's Prey

Sundance film festival, Showtime

Author Jon Krakauer and P.I. Sam Brower share their alarming story of sexual abuse, underage marriages, and pregnancies within a polygamous community, retracing the investigation that led to the capture and conviction of the group’s maniacal leader, Warren Jeffs. Gripping first-person accounts from former members and descendants of FLDS leadership paint a harrowing portrait where women are property, and men are forced to comply with the oppressive guidelines or face expulsion from their own families in a chilling reminder of the danger of unchecked power.
