DOJ CLAIMS CULT RUNNING TWO SOUTHWESTERN TOWNS .. Lawsuit alleges residents' rights violated on Warren Jeffs orders..

The U.S. Department of Justice has filed a lawsuit against two Arizona-Utah border towns alleging they violated the rights of residents by taking operating orders from Warren Jeffs, the imprisoned leader of the polygamous Fundamentalist Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints.

According to the DOJ, Jeffs and other FLDS leaders controlled the towns of Colorado City, Ariz., and Hildale, Utah, through a campaign of intimidation targeting non-FLDS members, who composed a small minority in both cities.

The federal civil rights case filed in Arizona argues that city leaders and law enforcement officers followed Jeff’s illicit orders, which included denying non-FLDS members housing and municipal services, as well as allowing individuals in the sect to damage their property and crops.
