Authorities arrested fundamentalist church leader and self-proclaimed “prophet” Samuel Bateman on August 28 in Flagstaff, Arizona. The FBI alleges that Bateman leads a polygamist religious group in the Arizona-Utah area and has at least 20 wives, most of them minors. The Coconino County Sheriff’s Office said Bateman was arrested after he was found transporting multiple underage girls in a squalid trailer. The Law&Crime Network’s Sierra Gillespie has the details on this story.

These evil people will always go for the weak to manipulate them and form a cult filled with weak minded, gullible, and lost sheeps. It's obvious she is not a believer, just a wolf for their own selfish evil desire.
Take a step back and really look at how this looks. None of it looks right. There’s kids being trafficked across the country probably going to texas literally where the one girl said they raided the other church or whatever you wanna call them. It don’t seem like a church, the reporter said there was like 20 counts of abuse and trafficking from the guy they’re arresting. Why isn’t he being charged with that? Child abuse is probably the smallest thing in this investigation. My opinion🤷♂️
Beware of false profits
Mormonism has nothing to do with Christianity; it’s a polytheistic religion. First of all the Bible says one man, one woman for marriage and it says WOMAN, not child. And it commands husbands to love their wives, abuse isn’t love.
Nasty Mormons.
King James Bible book of Acts is where you will find the real truth
this is what redpillers want. it's disgusting
American Mahomedan😂
Samuel “Jail bait” batemen
Major W
The socks and sandals are a crime.
Why do every one of these so called prophets immediately start abusing girls? Cant these wingnuts pick up a normal vice like smoking or sugar?
This is what freedom of religion gets ya….
They should've separated the adult women from the kids as it seemed they were coerced into giving answers that they wouldn't give if they weren't standing right there
Ze zijn goed getraind om te antwoorden 😢
If you see people dressing like that you know its a cult
Why don't they arrest the women too? They aren't innocent. They are helping him.
The women are just as bad as the guy
Religion is like drugs; not even once
It is awful how the Church of LDS is pulling this horrible stuff!!! Thankfully the cops got them. This is trafficking~I don't care if it is LDS. I call it like I see it!
They're just following the teachings of Joseph Smith in a modern world or civilised for that matter.
When the men turn 16 they are kicked out as seen to be completion these are sick people marring kids that is the truth
nice trafficking religion
i was dying laughing when i saw him. bros face is too small for his head.
Religion is the root of all evil
good work
God Bless LEOs
Only in America…..or in Afghanistan, Saudi Arabia or some other religious crazy land.
This is the work of the devil 👿
As a resident of southern Utah, who sees the way FLDS uses children for labor and does not bother with education, I am glad you cover this
That is so so sad how brain washed those women & little girls are. So disgusting!
And even worse the freak uses religon as a cover for his sickness.
NOW! ..LET HIM BE THE WIFE OF A FEW G😠😡D MEN.
The other video they talk to them and the kids are fine same with the women they are all friends
Next time watch the video all the way
Sad sad sad
Every religion is brainwashing in its own way, but we seem to notice it only when it comes to religions other than our own.
Hands sticking out of a trailer??? Its an enclosed trailer with no windows
If thy won't to be pimped out let them ..BLANK
Who are the actual GROOMERS. I don't see any drag queens.
ENOUGH IS ENOUGH.
The American public deserves to know about these actions within church's.
We're these men democrats???
They need to shut down all those cults
Ok so does someone have more information ? Bc comments and what we see in video doesn’t match up. They could be some religious weirdos on a trip and really thought there was nothing wrong with it. Like I’m so confused. Are we all just assuming or?? I need to know y’all
being held by police? aye hopefully upside down over a volcano
