An expert has revealed what’s hidden inside secret caves in Arizona created by the self-proclaimed prophet of a polygamous cult.
In preparation for the end of the world, the Fundamentalist Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints, led by Warren Jeffs, began digging caves underneath the compound that housed his enormous ‘family’.
Jeffs is currently serving a life sentence for aggravated sexual assault and a further 20 years for another count of sexual assault.
‘Not only were they preparing for the end of the world from a religious standpoint, but they were temporarily preparing for it,’ veteran investigator Mike King told NewsNation.
‘And they started digging caves that I heard about all the years I was investigating out there, but I could never prove (their existence), I could never find it when I talked to members of the FLDS.’
The church, a radical Mormon denomination of around 13,000, had mostly previously denied the existence of the caves.
Members told King ‘we’ve heard about it, but [the caves] don’t exist’.
‘I would talk to leaders in the church who fell away and said, “No, it doesn’t exist,”‘ King added.
