More Polygamist Trials

Posted by joshuah at 8th November, 2007

We have been rather busy here on the “compound” lately, but still are able to keep track of the happenings in the world of polygamy. Here is an interesting note concerning the upcoming trial of a polygamist about to go on trial, for a non-polygamy related offense. Notice, if you will, the concerns of the judge, as this is, in essence, what happened during the trial of Warren Jeffs.

A southern Utah man accused of mailing a letter threatening to kill IRS agents will go on trial next week in federal court.But the judge presiding over the trial is expressing concern that Thomas Vaughn Barlow’s polygamist past may eclipse the otherwise straightforward federal charges of mailing a threatening communication and interfering with the administration of internal revenue laws.

Something to keep watch on, no doubt.

Anyway, we still are wondering how it is that Warren Jeffs was convicted of a crime that had not actually been established as fact. Indeed, how can an individual be convicted of being an accomplice to a crime that has not been determined to have occurred, and how much of a fair trial will Allen Steed really have when an accomplice to the alleged crime has already been convicted? If Allen Steed is found innocent of rape, then Warren Jeffs could not possibly be an accomplice to the alleged rapes….simple as that. So, we doubt very much if Allen Steed will get anything other than a guilty verdict.
