Lyle Jeffs is the brother of Warren Jeffs who's currently serving life terms for felony sexual abuse of a child...

>Lyle Jeffs, who was among 11 members of the polygamous Fundamentalist Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints indicted in what prosecutors have called a conspiracy to defraud a federal food stamp program, was captured late Wednesday in South Dakota.

Thank you Cabbie! I've been sitting here on the East Coast all afternoon, wondering when one of you guys from Utah would post this story.

Don't think he'll be getting out now.

I just saw this. Hopefully he will be in lock up for good. Do you think he will be in the facility as his brother Warren?

I think the charges against Warren were brought by the state of Texas and so he's in a Texas jail.

I think Lyle might be facing Federal charges, so might end up in a Federal facility. Anyone know for sure?

He used consecrated oil to slip off his GPS monitoring shackle when he escaped?

No doubt!

For #37 dollars -- the cost of pawning two leatherman tools. Wow. What a tool.. . .

Mormon, LDS and/or polyg sympathies?

"Federal prosecutors and the FBI fought hard to keep him in jail pending trial, but Jeffs' attorneys persuaded U.S. District Judge Ted Stewart to set him free with monitoring.

Huber said Thursday: 'You don't want to say, 'I told you so,' but that's kind of where we're at.'"

"You don't want to say, 'I told you so...'" Yes you do! I love Huber's belittling Judge Stewart in such a droll tone. Exquisite!

Definitely Mormon. Don't know if he is a plyg sympathizer or not.
Before he became a judge, he had never tried a case in court. He was a political aide to Orrin Hatch (who has expressed sympathy for the FLDS previously).

Questionable environmental/wildlife practices. These included increasing the "mountain lion harvest" in a stupid attempt to "jump start" Utah deer herd populations. He also oversaw a cover-up of the "whirling disease" scandal involving a fish hatchery Leavitt's family owned in Wayne County.

He is the older brother of Utah Congressman Chris Stewart who's described in Wiki as an "author" who wrote several LDS faith-promoters...

One's brain on Mormonism, folks...

They better frisk him for olive oil this time. On second thought, he might need it where he's going.

What is it with religious fundies using food stamps?

They call it 'bleeding the beast' to justify their avarice,

At least they're honest about being parasites.

It was bonafide plyg doctrine that gawd implemented the welfare system to help dead beat pimp plygs feed their massive families...thats not to say most are...merely those like warren and lyle and the scum on the pond who think they should have 25 wives and 150 kids cuz gawd likes them best...your middle class plygs are mostly very hard working decent folk who live in constant poverty while tithing to support turds like lyle warren and winky...parasites is the right word...it isnt merely tithing thats keeps the middle class poor but donations for every dam project to move the work along...like supporting your missionary son while he builds on another ten thousand square feet to an apostles house for free..or worse an apostles snot nosed son who will stand by in clean clothes and with soft hands to supervise the workmanship...right boyd and henry and tommy...those wives take an awful lot of house..pimp plygs have no shame...entitlement is taught them from the cradle...during warrens run from the law little children wrote the ass letters and included what money they had...word was he took the money and didnt even look at the letters...every family was to give a thousand dollars a month...escalades dont buy themselves you know...when gawd is called the lord of hosts perhaps he set the trend...every parasite needs a host...isnt it amazing that the law of parasitism is common to morms and plygs...just like it was intentional...nuts from the same tree cuz gawds dam poor with money...until gawd discovered land speculation..hmm gawd seems to be just a dumb ordinary dufus with too much of other peoples money to piddle away and a deep love for capitalism..whod a thought?...ummm about that united order...lets unite and ill order

"Mostly very hard working decent folk who live in constant poverty while tithing to support..."

Hmmm, sounds like another "church" I know...
