The Cult of Warren Jeffs' FLDS PT2: "The Great Escape"

Last week, we met Jorjina Broadbent — mother of twelve, former sister-wife, and low-key badass hiding in plain sight.

This week? She stops hiding.

We pick up where we left off: deep inside the world of Warren Jeffs' FLDS cult — a place where girls are married off as teens, obedience is salvation, and hairstyles left something to be desired… like choice. But for Jorjina, something inside her starts to shift. As the leash tightens and the rules get crueler, the exit comes into view.

What follows is a breathless series of near-escapes, terrifying threats, and secret plans that might as well have been scribbled on fast food napkins. Also, Tyler's gorilla-style documentary filmmaking at its most high-stakes gets to be part of it all.

How will she make it out? And all her children?

Get the popcorn ready…

This is Part Two of Jorjina's extraordinary story.
