On her flight from the polygamous cult she was trapped in.
Carolyn Jessop was born into a family of followers of the Church of the Fundamentalist Latter Day Saints – a radical, and polygamous, offshoot of the Mormons. At 18, she was married to a high-ranking member of the sect, becoming his fourth wife. He was thirty years her senior. Over the next 15 years she had 8 children and her husband married a further two wives. In 2002, the cult became more radical and Carolyn made the decision to escape. She talks to Jane about her life inside the community and her flight from it.
