Polygamist Tour of Short Creek & Life Without Warren Jeffs | Profiling Evil
Friday, 30 January, 2026
In this Feedback Friday field trip, I take you directly into the heart of Short Creek, known today as Hildale, Utah, and Colorado City, Arizona. It once was the historic stronghold of the Fundamentalist Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints, the FLDS. This is the community built around plural marriage, prophetic control, and absolute obedience, led for decades by self-proclaimed prophet Warren Jeffs, now serving life in a Texas prison for sexually assaulting young girls. As we drive through the streets of this once-sealed polygamist enclave, we stop at key locations that defined FLDS power: the massive compound built by Warren Jeffs’ father Rulon Jeffs to house eighty-seven wives, the offices where obedience was enforced, and the meeting house where men were stripped of their families from the pulpit. You’ll see where Jeffs escaped federal arrest, how the United Effort Plan centralized wealth and control, and how law enforcement was sidelined by church authority. We’ll revisit the scars of history, including the infamous 1953 Short Creek Raid, the infant cemetery that still haunts investigators, and the burial grounds reserved only for the faithful. Along the way, we talk about secret police, hidden caves, the collapse of the FLDS corporate structure, and the uneasy reality that Warren Jeffs still exerts influence from behind prison walls. #Polygamy #PluralMarriage #FLDS #WarrenJeffs #RulonJeffs #ShortCreek #Hildale #ColoradoCity #ShortCreekRaid #1953Raid #FLDSCrimes #CultCrime #ReligiousAbuse #CoerciveControl #CriminalCults #TrueCrime #TrueCrimeCommunity #CultSurvivors #PolygamyAbuse #ChildAbuseAwareness #FLDSHistory #CrimeDocumentary #ProfilingEvil #JusticeForVictims #HumanTrafficking #ReligiousExtremism #CultAccountability ========================================https://gamutpodcasts.com/show/gardensofevilinsidethezionsocietycult/========================================20% OFF Newspapers.comhttps://www.newspapers.com/go/podcast/?ref=profilingevil?xid=8877&utm_source=ProfilingEvilPodcast&utm_medium=podcst&utm_campaign=ProfilingEvil26========================================FLDS StoryMap: https://arcg.is/0Gm4r1 ========================================Email your questions to: ProfilingEvil@gmail.com========================================💳 DONATE: https://www.paypal.com/donate/?hosted_button_id=T54JX76RZ455S💵 PayPal: https://paypal.me/profilingevil🕵️BECOME A MEMBER: https://www.youtube.com/profilingevil/join🛒SHOP MERCH: https://www.profilingevil.com/profilingevilshop📖SHOP BOOKS: https://www.profilingevil.com/storeSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
