In late 2005, the now-jailed polygamist leader Warren Jeffs called two men in Bountiful, B.C., and told them to bring their 12-year-old daughters to the United States to be wed, according to passages from Jeffs' diaries presented in a B.C. court Tuesday.

What is going on here? Are pedophiles joing the FLDS to attempt to legitimize this sick behavior?

BUT, BUT, BUT,

This type of depravity, sorry, freedom of religion, is protected here in Canada by the Charter of Rights and Freedoms.

That's up for debate in the courts at the moment.

Me too. There's too much evidence of coercion and child abuse to be protected under Freedom of Religion IMO.

But it will likely end up at the Supreme Court before a decision is reached. At the moment, it's before the BC Supreme Court.
