Brandon and Gail Blackmore did that in 2004 when they drove their 13-year-old daughter from B.C. to Utah and witnessed her marriage to Warren Jeffs, the 49-year-old prophet of the Fundamentalist Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints.
Jeffs already had more than 80 wives (including one of the Blackmores’ other daughters). He was already known as erratic, autocratic and a suspected pedophile.
And yet they handed their daughter to him, knowing that procreation is the main reason for marriage, not companionship or love.
