On the conclusion to our series on Mormonism, we cover two modern true crime stories that occurred as a direct result of Joseph Smith and Brigham Young's teachings. The first, set in the early 1980s, is a tale of revelation and blood atonement involving a brutal double murder, while the second is a story of polygamy perverted to satisfy the pedophilic desires of the sociopaths in charge of the Fundamentalist Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints.
