Escaping Polygamy

oh my gosh! This show! wow. How amazing and how brave for a show like this come along. It horrifies me that Polygamy is still going on in this country. It disgusts me! The real women in this who had the courage to get away from that terrible, terrible environment amaze me! and it amazes me that they want to help so many others escape as well. I still cannot believe that these disgusting men haven't been to jail yet. My hope is that because of this show that these men go to jail for life and that they never see the light of day. This is brainwashing to the max!! And when they help people escape from their rooms, my heart races because I want them to get out as soon as possible without getting caught! I will always love this show and I love the message of the show too.

This situation is very real and fact based. This Polygamist Kingston family has had some factual press based on the situation that is being told by these women (use your internet and look it up, it's there). Of course it's 'bad acting'.... because these people are not actors. Nevertheless, this situation is serious and this cult believes they are above the law and real humans are suffering at the hand of people who believe they are "God-like". These teenager girls being forced to marry young so they can start making babies and are never taught to have a mind of their own because they have been utterly brain-washed. This is just a group of twisted perverts who have been given some gated-community-playground where it's okay to rape under-aged females.

I think the bad reviews are written by the polygamists who are not happy being exposed. I recommend watching this and making up your own mind. From what I know of Mormons both FLDS and mainstream they are major creeps. I don't see anything fake about it. Read some books on the subject. They are secretive and don't like for people to know anything about them. Jon Krakauer has an excellent book titled Under the Banner of Heaven where you can be educated on the history of the entire kooky religion. When they did an episode out near where I live in southern Utah it was the best. Most of those women don't leave because they are terrified and know nothing of the real world. They are not allowed TV or internet. It's true. Read about it and judge the show for yourself.

Just watched the episode about the father that has Parkinson's Disease and it made me sick! That man is being controlled by this cult and he desperately needs medical attention. My mother had this disease and it is devastating for the victim; it robs them of their ability to walk, talk and take care of themselves but there is medication that can help and this man has not seen a doctor in a year. I have never been a cult member but I would think that the daughter could consult an attorney. Many people with Parkinson's also have Dementia.

A&A aired the episode and I feel that they are now partly responsible if this man dies prematurely of this disease. If they are aware of his dire need for medical attention and then do nothing to help, in my opinion, they are just as responsible as the greedy sickening cult that is controlling him. They have not become part of the problem and not part of the solution! Shame on A&E!

I found the show to be very forth coming of how real this problem with polygamy actually is with the Kingston cult. Im glad someone is trying to get the women and children out!! I cant wait for season 2 to air!! These women are so brave heading into the fire so to speak and breaking them out. I just want to know why the police don't step up and help!! Hopefully the Kingston cult is brought down to its knees and the women and children all become free! But that is probably not a reality since this has gone on forever!! Please bless all the women and children! Bless the women that are brave enough to have escaped and continue to do what they can for the rest.
