Polygamist ninjas. Honest.

From the You Can’t Make This Stuff Up Department
Attack of the Ninja Polygamist Women!

Two armed polygamist sister wives with knives and stun guns and dressed like ninjas attacked a Utah home on Friday. 

Honest. We’re not making this up. As Mark Twain said, “Of course truth is stranger than fiction. Fiction has to make sense.”

If you think knife-and-stun-gun-wielding polygamist wives on attack is odd, wait, there’s more. One of the intended victims fended off the ninjas by wielding a sword. How he happened to have a sword handy we do not know, but would love to. Thanks to his quick action and swordsmanship, he held the ninjas at bay until police arrived.

The attackees are a victim and witness in a criminal child sex-assault case. The defendant happens to be the ninja women’s husband. Click here to read The Guardian’s account.

Death of another charlatan
Leader of plyg cult Apostolic United Brethren succumbs

Lamoine Jenson, prophet of the Apostolic United Brethren (AUB) died Tuesday from colon cancer. 

According Salt Lake City's Fox13now.com, an AUB representative called Jenson “... one of the kindest, gentlest, a very unassuming man. He was a tremendous leader. He will be greatly missed by many.”

With so much attention focused on Warren Jeffs, many may not have heard of Jenson. Yet he was no small potatoes. The Salt Lake Tribune reports some 5,000 to 7,500 adherents in three countries. (Click here to read the Tribune article.) Jenson is to be succeeded by Lynn A. Thompson.
