Synopsis:
Secrets of Polygamy delves into the worlds of extreme polygamist groups and explores how
the power held by Prophet Warren Jeffs, who is currently serving a life sentence for his
crimes committed as Prophet, and other highprofile polygamists, such as Sam Bateman, have
shaped communities where claims of abuse, incest and fraud have become common.
Investigator Matt Browning, retired law enforcement, meets with former members who have
escaped to hear shocking allegations of mental and physical abuse suffered by polygamist
women and children. The series features indepth interviews with experts and access to
insiders including Warren Jeffs' daughter, Rachel Jeffs Blackmore, who shares her
firsthand account of life with her father, one of Jeffs' former wives, Alyshia Blackmore,
former members Mary Ann Kingston, Lu Ann Cooper and Faith Bistline, investigators Shelly
Livingstone and Terry Jacklin and others. Additionally, neverbeforeseen photos from
Alyshia and Warren's wedding and audio from Jeffs' and Bateman's teachings help shine a
light on these groups and offer a definitive look at polygamy in America.
