A lawsuit filed by a former child bride could ultimately bankrupt the trust that holds all property in Hildale and Colorado City.
The multi-million dollar personal injury lawsuit against the U-E-P trust was filed by Elissa Wall. Wall was the woman at the center of the case that ended in the conviction of Warren Jeffs on rape as an accomplice charges. Lawyers for the trust say if it is held liable, it could open the door to numerous other lawsuits by those who feel they were harmed by Jeffs. They say that such lawsuits could leave innocent people who live in homes owned by the trust with nothing.
In our biblical worldview, there are three options when it comes to marital relationships: monogamy, polygyny, and celibacy. Most people are monogamous. A few of us may be either polygamous or celibate. All three options are morally, ethically and spiritually equal. |
