Rising Publicity of Polygamy Case Continues


  • This ABC News video transcript talks about the discussion on polygamy that continues to gain media attention, due to the polygamous family in the T.V. show "Sister Wives" and their quest for freedom from the law
  • A young woman tells her story of growing up in a polygamous, Fundamentalist Mormon family in Christianity Today's article, her escape from the 'cult', and her struggles in redefining her life outside of the flds community.
  • Jonathan Turley, lead counsel in the "Sister Wives" polygamy case, shares his thoughts in this Washington Post article.  He says that this issue is more about morality than anything else, and how the United States is fighting to keep a grip on an outdated idea simply because of the fear of losing control and changing the status quo.
