Polygamist added to FBI’s top 10 list

? The FBI’s Ten Most Wanted Fugitives list now includes the leader of a polygamist church.

Warren Jeffs, 50, is accused of arranging marriages between underage girls and older men. He is wanted in Arizona on criminal charges of sexual conduct with a minor. He also was charged in Utah with rape as an accomplice.

Jeffs is the leader of the polygamous Fundamentalist Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints, based in the neighboring communities of Hildale, Utah, and Colorado City, Ariz.

The sect split from mainstream Mormonism after the broader church renounced polygamy in 1890. The mainstream LDS church excommunicates members found to be practicing polygamy.

By putting him on the Top 10 list, the FBI’s reward increases from $50,000 to $100,000. The list is also distributed worldwide.
