Mormon Polygamy


As you probably know, Polygamy was practically invented* by the Mormon Prophet,
seer and revelator, Joseph Smith.
Though officially illegal, it is still practiced by Mormons in Utah and in Other states.

Many LDS men prepare for polygamy by being "sealed" to more than one woman.

 "...If any man espouse a virgin, and desire to espouse another, and the first give her consent, and if he espouse the second, and they are virgins, and have vowed to no other man, then is he justified; he cannot commit adultery... And if he have ten virgins given unto him by this law, he cannot commit adultery... therefore is he justified."        -Joseph Smith
     Doctrine and Covenants (# 61-62) (
Law of the priesthood)

Utah schools have one of the lowest ratios of teacher to child.
Utah has the highest per capita sugar consumption in the US.
Utah has the highest incidence of Child abuse in the US. 
In some polygamist towns up to one third of the families get welfare from taxpayer money.

GIVING IT UP --

"To comply with the request of our enemies, would be to give up all hope
of ever entering into the glory of God, the Father, and Jesus Christ, the son.
So intently interwoven is this precious doctrine with the exaltation of men
and women in the great hereafter that it cannot be given up without giving
up at the same time all hope of immortal glory."

- George Q. Cannon, counselor of the Mormon First Presidency, 1885.

Polygamy links theft of silver -- and possibly gold
Woman who reported missing gold worth up to $5M won't return police calls.

It's a uniquely Utah caper: Silver bars, and maybe gold bars and coins, stolen from a family connected to a polygamous clan.

At a Millcreek home in February, police arrested two young men carrying off about $70,000 in silver bars. On the same day, Patty Brown Kingston of West Jordan called police to report she was missing up to $5 million in gold bars and coins.

Kingston, the Millcreek family and the arrested men -- Scott E. Brown, 20, and David L. Brown, 19 -- are all associated with the polygamous Davis County Cooperative, said Rowenna Erickson, a former member of the Kingston family by marriage.

Salt Lake County sheriff's Lt. Don Hutson said the cases involving the Browns will be submitted this week to prosecutors, who will decide whether to file criminal charges.

But detectives have had difficulty investigating the West Jordan theft, and are not convinced it occurred. "Here's a lady that's missing up to $5 million in gold, then won't take our phone calls on it," said West Jordan police Lt. Bob Shober.

Hutson said a Millcreek resident on Feb. 26 reported two men entering and leaving a neighbor's home. A deputy arrived and found the Browns with silver bars they had taken from the house, Hutson said.

"They essentially admitted, 'That's our aunt. We often go to her home and take some things,'" he said.

The silver "was essentially stacked in the house, and that was a large concern of ours," Hutson said. "Apparently that has been rectified."

The Browns did not claim they had permission to take the bars,  Hutson said.  The deputy  arrested  the  Browns on

suspicion of burglary and theft. The Salt Lake County jail released them about a week later.

Kingston told police she heard about the Millcreek theft and went to check her own stash of gold bars and coins, discovering it was missing. She said her gold was in three boxes, each weighing about 60 pounds, but she had not looked at it in five years, Shober said.

She claimed that she and a business partner purchased the gold years ago and divided it among themselves.

Kingston told the first responding officer the gold was worth about $500,000, Shober said, but then later told a detective it might be worth between $3 million and $5 million, based on appreciation.

But Kingston did not produce documentation and has not responded to detectives' efforts to follow up, Shober said.

Kingston leaders declined to comment Tuesday. The Browns could not be reached for comment.


Another golden mystery
Zions Bank is trying to find a woman who sold its Washington, Utah, branch office thousands of dollars in gold coins at a fraction of their value.

On March 16, the woman asked to trade in coins labeled "$20." The coins were minted from 1875 to 1927, said Zions spokesman Rob Brough. The bank paid face value but later realized they may be worth $1,000 each, he said.

Anyone with information about the woman, described as white, in her 20s or 30s, about 5 foot 6 and having short hair, can contact a local Zions branch.

Brough said there's no indication the coins are related to gold reported stolen from the West Jordan home of Patty Brown Kingston.
