***Both tapes are in posts below, hard to hear, use headphones. Parts of the tapes are transcribed here.
Disturbing audiotapes of notorious polygamist Warren Jeffs training his 'spiritual wives' to have sex with him were released by a Texas court.
The convicted child rapist can be heard panting and breathing heavily as he instructs his 'ladies' on how to please him as well as each other.
The chilling tapes, that were key pieces of evidence in the polygamist leader's trial, brought jurors to tears last week at the Tom Green County Courthouse in San Angelo.
Jeffs was sentenced to life in prison for aggravated sexual assault of a 12-year-old girl and 20 years for the sexual assault of a 15-year-old girl.
The 55-year-old head of the Fundamentalist Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints perverted his position to 'satisfy his own personal appetites and desires,' prosecutor Eric Nichols said.
Jeffs' desires are recorded on audiotape that authorities seized from his car and from the church's Yearning For Zion Ranch compound in Eldorado, Texas.
The tapes, released yesterday, contain what prosecutors used in evidence of Jeffs instructing under-age girls to have sex with him.
At one point, Jeffs is heard saying God instructs 'for quorums of wives to be with me, to assist me. To be a comfort. Yes, even physically. For more than one woman is with me at a time... sexually together.'
Jeffs repeatedly refers to the sexual relations as 'heavenly sessions,' and he instructed the girls to 'assist each other' during the sessions.
Jeffs can be heard saying: 'You have to know how to be excited sexually. The Lord has intended that my ladies, all of my ladies be trained.'
In other chilling remarks Jeffs says: 'But when you are with me you must be inspired. You have to be inspired to assist me. Very few of my ladies have been allowed to assist me. To assist me because it takes a heavenly gift. You have to pray harder than ever.'
In the tapes Jeffs is heard telling the girls 'what you are about to do is important'.
While Jeffs can be heard panting and breathing heavily, the girls can be heard quietly saying 'Amen' in the background.
He also encourages the girls to take off their clothes saying: 'Ladies were unclothed. The Lord came here while we were in circle prayer, they heard his presence.
'You have been trained to keep you body covered from others when I am not present. You need to be as comfortable undressed as dressed when you are around each other.'
He goes on to say: 'You will be together and feel the heavenly fire and feel the Lord's love.
'You have to know how to be excited sexually and to be excited to administer that comfort and strength and you have to be able to assist each other, and you have to be prepared to be trained to do this against the time I would need your help, The Lord's help. All my ladies need be trained.'
In a twisted finale Jeffs tells the girls: 'You ladies just don’t know how men out in the world are.'
A young female voice replies: 'We’re so glad we don’t know.'
The court had heard how Jeffs' wives were both the victims of his abuse and the accomplices, subjected to a cruel world of worship and sexual abuse, while also proving their worth to their leader by holding down their peers while they were assaulted.
The latest revelations come as Astonishing pictures emerged showing the Texan polygamist dressed in mainstream clothes while on the run with one of his favorite young wives.
Jeffs was pictured on a motorbike with young follower Naomi Jessop clutching his waist.
Evading capture as one of the FBI's Ten Most Wanted criminals, he can be seen posing by landmarks in St. Louis, while in others Miss Jessop smiles for her leader's camera, dressed in shorts, a tank top and socks under sandals.
Prison booking photographs which now show the rapid fall of a man who thrived on power - shaved, skinny and pale, Warren Jeffs looked a broken man as he stared blankly towards a future locked behind bars.
He has now begun his sentence at the Byrd Unit in Huntsville, Texas, where he is allowed no visits and no calls.
The unit is used to house death row inmates and those on life sentences without parole before they are moved on to the facilities where they will remain for the rest of their lives.
DNA evidence presented during the trial proved Jeffs had fathered a child with a 15-year-old child bride.
During the trial an FBI agent read Jeffs' journal - which prosecutors say proved he knew his behaviour was wrong.
The court heard that Jeffs wrote: 'Things are happening so quickly. There is an even younger girl that the Lord wants me to take. She is 13. For some reason, the Lord is sending me these girls that can be worked with.'
He also wrote: 'If the world knew what I was doing, they would hang me from the highest tree.'
During the trial prosecutors suggested that the polygamist leader told the girls they needed to have sex with him in order to atone for sins in his community.
FBI agent John Broadway testified that fathers who gave their young daughters to Jeffs - their supposed prophet - were rewarded with young brides of their own.
Girls who proved reluctant to have sex with Jeffs were sent away, according to excerpts from Jeff's journals that prosecutors showed to the jury.
'If they wanted to not be rejected by God, then the new laws [Jeffs] was introducing was requiring them to participate in these sessions,' agent Broadway said.
Jeffs's conviction stems from a highly publicised raid on the sect's Yearning For Zion compound in Eldorado, Texas, in which authorities took temporary custody of some 400 children.
They later returned them to their families after an investigation and DNA tests.
Some legal experts have said that because the raid was triggered by a false report, the evidence gathered there could be disallowed.
But Judge Barbara Walther, who has presided over the case in her San Angelo courtroom since the raid, allowed evidence prosecutors said proved Jeffs abused his position in power to have sex with girls as young as 12.

TRANSCRIPT: RECORDINGS OF WARREN JEFFS' 'HEAVENLY SESSIONS'
God instructs 'for quorums of wives to be with me, to assist me. To be a comfort. Yes, even physically. For more than one woman is with me at a time... sexually together.'
'Verily, thus sayeth the Lord unto you you my servant Warren: I, the Lord thy God, look upon thee at this time and my smile shines upon thee and these my daughters who are with me.'
'The Lord is ready to scourge and destroy this people for rejecting for not being prepared to build a temple for not being Zion. He required that I come to this land quickly and atone for the people and the atonements have come to such severity that I am taken right close to death. It is a heavenly justice administered and my ladies at the right moment are called to assist me and through their tenderness and in their wifely womanly ways are able to revive me. I am not to go into the hands of the medical people or they will destroy me. The Lord has appointed that my wives who are filled with the holy ghost can help revive me, as that eternal heavenly justice is completed. The Lord showed me that he was taking me right to death through these atonements and with my ladies as quorums to do this work.'
'This is an inordinate of the celestial law that the wives of the heavenly prophet perform. These three ladies stepped forward and assisted me. At that time I was very lonely. They have to know how to touch, to be a comfort... you have to know how to be excited sexually. The Lord has intended that my ladies, all of my ladies be trained.'
'I am very merry. All I am interested in is learning more of the spirit and your relationship with me is for that very thing and we will be together to feel the heavenly fire accomplish the Lords love and nothing less. You helping me will resolve... perhaps you will be with me when I am not down and out - we should always be with the heavenly fire in our connections. The Lord showed me that I don't always have to be near close to death before my ladies are with me, but they do need to be filled with the spirit of love.'
'I came to this land of refuge at 11.15 at night on October 12, and there were seven ladies here doing their work and they were ladies that had had experience with me and had trained most of that had witnessed the Heavenly Sessions, they know of the all consuming fire. They were unclothed I had them put on their white robes... this is dated October 13 while I was still her way past midnight.
There were eight ladies present, the quorum of seven, and I brought Naomi here with me. And the Lord came here while we were in circle prayer they felt his presence, and the Lord had me voice this revelation which will be recorded during the circle prayer. These ladies felt the all consuming fire of this ritual given. In this revelation there is a greater training, how to be a heavenly wife. That is why I have told you, I don't just need earthly wives, I can only use heavenly wives.
You have to be so pure...'
'This takes place in such privacy, people don't know anything about it'
'How can the spirit of God be here if there's something wrong here?'
'But when you are with me you must be inspired. You have to be inspired to assist me. Very few of my ladies have been allowed to assist me. Most of the ladies know of this training but very have been allowed to assist me because it takes a heavenly gift. You have to pray harder than ever.'
'You have been trained to keep you body covered from others when I am not present. You need to be as comfortable undressed as dressed when you are around each other.'
'You will be together and feel the heavenly fire and feel the Lord's love.'

What does she look all of, 22? He was just having his last hey day blast. He knew it was over, don't you think?
ReplyDeleteHe was having the time of his life! Onthe Churchs money!
ReplyDeleteSick Sick Sick. Be nice to have a full transcript. I'm going to see if my son can fix the sound for us.
ReplyDeleteWarren Jeffs is a true pedophile! How he got by with this for so long is unreal! Where were the women's minds? Did they not have a mind of their own? Warren Jeffs is the true Devil himself!
ReplyDeleteSadly, it seems all sects of Mormon Polygamy have some type of this behavior-hopefully it will dissipate. I do believe Jeffs is the worst man I know. the Devil
ReplyDeleteIt's hard to imagine the girls with the poof hair dos and the prairie dresses participating in this.
ReplyDeleteAccording to phrydoom, Warren Jeff's wives were under the impression that his cum was blessed and that this was a focal point during the "heavenly sessions".
ReplyDeleteHow how sick to tell little girls this stuff, they are just doing what they think will bless them. How horrid!
ReplyDeleteThis sounds like an orgy which I think is forbidden in 'the lifestyle'
ReplyDeleteGood point.
ReplyDeletehow ironic that he only took "one" wife with him when he went on the lam
ReplyDelete
