I was raised in a small town just outside of SLC and I love these kinds of documentaries because they bring to light the real truths. The town where I was raised was totally LDS. I see the main difference between the FLDS and the LDS is they don't practice polygamy...right now. I am interested to see since polygamy is almost legal again if the LDS church re-adopts the practice. So much pressure "to choose the right". Most kids have a ring on their finger to remind them. Being a mom and a "good" wife is the only option I was given as a child and my husband could tell me to do anything. So could the bishop. If you go to college because you can't find a husband, you can take nursing, family studies, education or anything else that will contribute to being a good homemaker because that is your one true calling. I am sure that mormons raised outside of Utah have more choices. If you choose to leave the church in my family, you aren't invited to family events. Your children are watched closely so they don't infect the rest of the family If you are a Mormon, you wear certain clothes, look and talk a certain way, give 10% of your income and protect your children from "the real world" but they hate it when you call it a cult. Most are pretending their family is perfect which in my mind is not being honest. It's your church above your country and if the church wanted something different than the country they would do what they did again when they came to Utah. They are armed and believe in many conspiracy theories. I see more documentaries of this kind in the future. Loved every minute of it.

This is the worst documentary I've seen in a long time. Piers seems to think that if he confronts these guys like a bully he is going to get them to "tell the truth". Any day in prison they face worse than Piers can dish out. Piers says at the first of the episode it's their chance to tell their side of the story than he doesn't let them talk and presents the evidence the police collected at the time they were convicted and just makes them angry. Obviously, they would have heard the story the police put together or most of it during their trials. I would venture to say from what I've seen of Piers that his is probably a narcissist. He certainly shows no compassion or empathy and no new information is presented. He doesn't handle the people affected by the deaths well. I have no idea why he was picked to do this series. Total waste of time.

I am so disturbed by this. If a person brought their dog to a vet thinking it had worms or some other parasite would the vet begin with the assumption that the person was crazy and having hallucinations and that anyone else who backs them up is also crazy and having hallucinations. Some of these doctors are making patients feel like what they are saying isn't valid and then getting together and laughing about it which is so abusive and reckless. The patient could end up not doing anything until they are very sick. There isn't any actual doctoring going on. No listing of symptoms, examining of evidence and making an appropriate diagnosis. I've been there. It's hard to find a doctor who is actually talented enough to figure out what is wrong with their patients especially if what you have and your symptoms are rare and unusual. They are just sticking you with needles, reading lab reports and writing prescriptions. Don't give up just because they can't figure it out or are lazy or arrogant. Don't let them damage your self esteem. Keep looking for a better doctor.
