- Ruby_Jessop abstract "Ruby Jessop (born 1987) is a former member of the Fundamentalist Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints and child bride known for her family connections, her 2013 escape from an FLDS-controlled polygamous community, and the criminal probe prompted by her escape.Jessop is the sister of author and ex-FLDS member Flora Jessop. In Flora Jessop's book, Church of Lies, she recounts how, as a fourteen-year-old, Ruby called her asking to help her escape after learning that she was to be married off to her second cousin and step-brother, Haven Barlow. Flora Jessop writes that while the authorities were contacted, they were unable to locate Ruby as she was being moved from place to place to avoid F Jessop's contact.FLDS Prophet Warren Jeffs officiated at the wedding of 14-year-old Jessop and Barlow, who was then in his mid-20s. When the two were married, this made Barlow her brother-in-law, second cousin, step-brother and husband. The intermarrying of Fundamentalist Mormon members is very common, as families have many members and only people inside the faith are deemed marriageable. This can result in inbreeding and can cause genetic defects.After Jessop's escape, a press conference was held by Arizona Attorney General Tom Horne with Jessop and her sister Flora to announce not only the escape, but a probe into the alleged FLDS practice of holding women against their will and an investigation of the police force in Colorado City. Horne also intervened and prevented Barlow from keeping Jessop's children away from her.Jessop has appeared on Katie Couric, Oprah, Anderson Cooper: 360°, and appears in Jon Krakauer's non-fiction book Under the Banner of Heaven: A Story of Violent Faith.Jessop is cousin-by-marriage of Carolyn Jessop, author of the New York Times Best Seller Escape and ex-FLDS member. She is a relative of Winston Blackmore, the leader of a Canadian polygamous group, and also his uncle John Horne Blackmore, first leader of what became the Social Credit Party of Canada.".
