The Afternoon REPUBLICAN SUPPORTED MORMON POLYGAMY NEWS: It turns out that former Republican Utah Governor Mike Leavitt, currently Bush's nominee for Health and Human Services Secretary, met with FUNDMENTALIST MORMON POLYGAMISTS during the 1980s to help set up his run for governor. The infamous Fred Jessop, in fact!
REPUBLICAN HHS NOMINEE MIKE LEAVITT WILL SOON BE SENDING WELFARE CHECKS TO HIS FUNDAMENTALIST MORMON POLYGAMIST SUPPORTERS
Having recently learned that our state Governor, Mike Leavitt, had several meetings with Fred Jessop in the 1980s before he became governor added new concerns to who might be running interference for these southern Utah polygamists.
Even looking at those that the F.L.D.S. church retain as attorney for Colorado City government implies a risk to justice or to obstruction of justice, as fundamentalist dollars buy well placed heavy hitters in Utah government and economic planning.

I must note that this is the man who will be in charge of making sure the Fundamentalist Mormon Polygamists get their welfare checks with no questions asked.
Expect HHS rulings to make polygamy for all purposes legal, Reverend Falwell. Then the Fundamentalist Mormon Polygamists will really be subsidized by the Republicans, Reverend Falwell. And each wife has an average of 10 children, with 33% of all FLDS memebers on welfare now.
Your Mr. Bush betrays you again, Reverend Falwell! First on the Defense of Marriage Amendment, and now by subsidizing the New Wave of Fundamentalist Mormon Polygamists, suddenly spread to 30 states and probably half a million strong.
Vote Democrat, Reverend Falwell--to keep your way of life.
Where is Ruby Jessop? Married illegally and in secret on April 23rd 2001, blessed by her step father Fred Jessop 2nd councilor to the prophet and officiated by Warren Jeffs, first councilor to the prophet and the prophet to be when his father Rulon dies.
Ruby was age 14 and forced to marry when she was caught in an innocent kiss, with a childhood sweetheart. On May 15th after 3 weeks of marriage to her step brother Haven Barlow, she fled to her brothers home. From Hildale to Colorado City, her brother Joe C. Jessop Jr. thought he could protect her, he couldn't!
The following weekend at Quail Creek Reservoir in Utah, Ruby was taken by deception and returned to Uncle Fred's home. When the Washington County Sheriff investigated days later, the FLDS leadership replied that the juvenile was on vacation for an undetermined length of time.
Now nearly 3 weeks later; "WHERE'S RUBY" ??? No one seems to know. Ruby's sister and activist fear the girl was taken to the FLDS colony in Bountiful Canada (as have many underage girls in an effort to marry them off to older men and avoid prosecution) as she put the two highest FLDS leaders at risk, do in part to her young age.
While Dept. of Family Services and the Washington County Sheriff claim the case is pending, no pressure was placed on the girls parents to produce the runaway per the three week old investigation. Concerned that this three week period will serve only to brain wash or threaten the juvenile.
