Warren Jeffs’ Coma: FLDS Leader’s Wife Naomi, Daughter Rachel; Is He Still Alive As Of 2022?
Keep Sweet: Pray and Obey, a four-part true-crime documentary was just published on Netflix. It recounts how Warren Jeffs, the head of the Fundamentalist Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints (FLDS), controlled the lives of its followers.
According to the Chicago Sun-Times, church leaders promoted underage marriage during Jeffs’s’s administration by saying it was done in God’s name. He acquired the leadership role after his father, Rulon Jeffs, passed away in 2002. He had a large number of marriages. According to Entertainment Weekly, he took charge of the members’ funds and cut them off from the outside world.
Warren Jeffs sexually molested girls and split up groups of females for his older male followers to marry in exchange for their loyalty, claims Entertainment Weekly. Nomi was his favorite spouse by the time he became the FLDS president. But according to the Washington Post, by the time he was apprehended, he had 78 wives, twenty-four of whom were under the age of seventeen.
While Warren was the FLDS leader, he was detained in 2011. He had been convicted of two counts of being an accessory to rape back in 2007, as well as at least two felony charges of sexual activity with minors. However, according to The Independent, the court overturned the conviction in 2007 in 2010.
When his nephew Brent Jeffs filed a lawsuit, accusing Warren of anally raping him as a toddler, Warren’s world began to fall apart. Warren was legally accused of planning to engage in sexual assault with a minor in 2005. In the retrial, Warren was found guilty and sentenced to life in prison plus 20 years for sexually abusing two kids.
In 2007, Jeffs attempted to hang himself. He needed medical help a few years later after becoming ill while fasting. Doctors put Warren in a medically induced coma in August 2011 after he grew frail from fasting.
No one knows why he started the fast, but according to the New York Post, he did let the employees know that he was not on a hunger strike but fasting. His knee ulcers from praying in his cell were among the various medical issues he was treated for while in the coma, according to the Salt Lake City Tribune.
The reason why Jeffs was initially put into a coma was not made clear by the doctors. He was saved by the action, even though they weren’t sure if he would live.
According to Rachel Jeffs, one of his daughters, in the 2018 A&E series Warren Jeffs: Prophet of Evil, Warren Jeffs is still alive and still in complete control of the FLDS from prison. He is allowed to receive family visits and write letters to designated contacts. According to Grunge, investigators think he might be communicating with his supporters using coded texts. Additionally, they believe that he may be guiding them on how to manage the company through his frequent interactions with his several brothers.
While imprisoned, Jeffs published a book titled Jesus Christ, Message to All Nations that is filled with predictions that he claims were sent to him between 2010 and 2012. Jeffs will be released on July 22, 2038, when he will be 82 years old. According to The Independent, he is currently serving his sentence at a prison in Palestine, Texas.
