Warren Jeffs is one of the most popular and richest Sect Leader who was born on December 3, 1955 in Sacramento, California, United States. Warren Steed Jeffs was born on the 3rd December, 1955 in the home of Rulon Jeffs (1909-2002) and Merilyn Steed (born in 1935). Warren was born over two months early within Sacramento, California.

In July of 2004, Jeffs’ nephew, Brent Jeffs, filed a lawsuit claiming that Jeffs had raped him in a sexually explicit way at the church’s Salt Lake Valley compound in the latter part of the 1980s. Brent wrote his book Lost Boy, along with the author Maia Szalavitz, which recounts allegations of sexual assaults allegedly committed by Jeffs and his brothers and family members, that were committed at a time when Brent was 5 or six. Brent’s brother Clayne took his own life after accusing Jeffs that he sexually assaulted him when he was a child. Two of Jeffs nephews, as well as two of Jeffs children have also publicly stated that they having been sexually assaulted by Jeffs.

In 2005, Southern Poverty Law Center’s Intelligence Report published the following statements made by Jeffs:

In June 2005, Jeffs was charged in Mohave County, Arizona, with sexual assault on a minor and with conspiracy to commit sexual misconduct with a minor for allegedly arranging, in April 2001, a marriage between a then-14-year-old girl and her 19-year-old first cousin, Allen. The young girl, Elissa Wall (then known as “Jane Doe IV”, and the younger sister of Rebecca Wall), testified that she begged Rulon Jeffs to let her wait until she was older or choose another man for her. The elder Jeffs was apparently “sympathetic”, but his son was not, and she was forced to go through with the marriage. Wall alleged that Allen often raped her and that she repeatedly miscarried. She eventually left Allen and the community.

Before his father’s passing at the age of 22, Jeffs had the job as a counselor to the church’s leader. Jeffs was appointed Rulon’s successor and his official title within the FLDS Church becoming “President and Prophet, Seer and Revelator” and “President of the Priesthood”. The latter included being the in charge of the group of the church’s male members of all ages who were judged worthy of the priesthood which is a tradition that continues throughout the Latter Day Saint movement.
