The name game . . .

What's in a name? Fundamentalist Mormon polygamist leader Warren Jeffs, who is on trial for rape as an accomplice, has been staying in a Utah correctional facility called . . . Purgatory.

1. Sadly, this trial does nothing to prevent further abuse by these cults.
If they lose, it almost helps them by making martres out of them. The only way to stop the cult is to drag everyone out of there forcibly and there's no law allowing that.

I'd like to see the state institute a law forcing a state-run school onto the premesis so the children could be exposed to the outside world and we could get good information on abuse and neglect. If the young girls were allowed some alternative adult influences they might not choose to continue the lifestyle and leave when of age.

2. After conviction, perhaps there is a prison somewhere named Hell.
Or they could re-open Devil's Island :)
