00:12It's very difficult to explain to people how all this happened. A slide of snow
00:20coming down the mountain and it begins to roll like a snowball. Compromise by
00:26compromise. How does something so small as a snowflake build up till an avalanche
00:33was over our heads? I grew up knowing that you have a conscience. There's a
00:42certain fear that comes over you. The fear that you know you're doing wrong. The
00:47fear of God. One of the subtle things this wicked man did was to destroy
00:59conscience that I was groveling in sin. I didn't want to live like this. I envied the
01:07corpse. I envied the corpse a lot.
01:15We weren't living very far from the police station. I could have simply walked
01:20over there. But I just kept thinking, will they hear one woman's cry?
01:29Once I knew that Christine was the one I could go to and asked for this help, I
01:35thought, okay, now we've got two women, not just one. Will they hear it?
01:48The body's wise, but mine is broken. Unsteady ties of my emotion. They say, trust yourself. But how do you
01:59know when? How do you know when?
02:02What if I fall into the abyss? What if I swing? Only just a mess. What if the rose looks
02:14pretty, but the
02:15doors cut me? But what if I trust me?
02:40First day, July 28th. It's Julia. When Julia began disclosing to me, I began recording.
02:51I was right. Following Samuel to hell is not doing right. It isn't. And that woman does not have to
03:01follow a man to hell. She doesn't. It was hard for her at first. She started by telling me how
03:10Sam was
03:11getting more and more cruel. It was tough for me to tell Christine how much of a fake front
03:20is being put on in her presence. Bye. Thank you. Bye. The minute that she would leave,
03:31he would attack him with the most vulgar language and effing him and all sorts of stuff that was
03:37just disgusting. I just watched as he began to feed himself off everybody. He's home on the computer
03:47and they were twiddling around. And they were out cleaning motel rooms and Airbnbs and working hard.
03:57Even when they were expecting babies, sick or not sick, they would go to work to earn the money for
04:04him.
04:06It's one of the girls' notebooks. And we knew they'd been doing affirmations to increase their inner
04:14self. And then when they were home, he would make them do hours of writing. Everything has to do with
04:22Samuel. Everything is Samuel. And I'll bless the Lord unto my servant Samuel. I wanted to show Christine
04:29what he was doing to manipulate their minds. Samuel, I am in holy fucking love with you. Samuel, I am
04:36in
04:36holy fucking love with you. It just became an absolute drill. It's like a mind control technique. Yeah.
04:50In a week's period of time, Julia went to Christine, I think three or four times, just crying and sobbing
04:59and talking for hours. Julia never agreed with giving her daughters, especially her minor children,
05:08to Sam Bateman. Here you grab those Kleenexes.
05:13She knew it was wrong, but she had to obey what the prophet said and what her husband said.
05:23Bateman also threatened Julia that he was going to take her
05:28one-year-old son away from her if she did not obey him.
05:39Eventually, Christine asked Julia if she wanted to talk to somebody about it and told her about me.
05:49Julia was terrified of law enforcement, but she knew something had to be done and didn't know what else to
05:56do.
05:58I just wanted to give back to my God.
06:03And my true religion.
06:09And soon thereafter, Dawn was in town and Julia agreed to meet with her.
06:18I thought, you know, this man cannot go on and keep hurting people.
06:24And so I went and started telling it all.
06:30It was very emotional and it was just the hardest thing to do.
06:40Julia had information on certain sex acts that occurred and where they occurred, what occurred,
06:50what happened during those sex acts.
06:52This is going to get gross.
06:57Sam Bateman chose the people he wanted to be there, which would include adults and minor girls.
07:05To not get caught by law enforcement, Sam was taking precautions not to get any of the minor girls pregnant,
07:14but having sexual relations with them.
07:21He wanted to have people watching him have sex.
07:25He wanted other people to be having sex while he was having sex.
07:30He would have the fathers having sex with other women,
07:39with their daughters in the room.
07:42Sometimes he would have people watching by video.
07:47I don't know who was all on video watching it.
07:52But you could see Sam on the other bed.
07:58The goal was to try to teach the young girls how to please Sam Bateman.
08:10It was clear that what I knew before meeting Julia was the tip of the iceberg
08:17and it just kept getting worse and worse and worse.
08:24Julia knew something had to be done
08:27and she was going to help me nail this motherfucker.
08:38Julia and I were now working with the FBI.
08:42Julia, bless her heart, she was so good about documenting things.
08:47She had access to all the identifying information for the wives and for the girls.
08:55I've got Bill's birth certificate records.
08:57Any of them that I want, I'll give to them.
09:01Yeah, that's great.
09:03She was able to provide a lot of the group communications on Signal.
09:12I just gave them anything that they asked for.
09:16Notes I'd made on my phone, pictures on my phone,
09:20pictures of people I love so much,
09:22my sisters, my daughters.
09:27It was very grievous, but I had to do it.
09:33My emotions are fresh and wide in my eyelids
09:36because I'm just at the beginnings of what's going to happen, you know?
09:41Yeah.
09:42It's going to be big, like for Moroni.
09:48Julia's husband, Moroni, was still a very strong believer.
09:52She had to hide, even from him, that she was meeting with me.
09:58I tried to delete as much the trail.
10:01You know, I double-checked my phone,
10:04made sure everything was deleted out of cut and paste, everything.
10:08If Sam sensed anything,
10:12or if anybody saw me going to Christine's a lot,
10:16or conversating with her,
10:19he would question Moroni about it.
10:23We mostly did it inside.
10:26I'd even park in such a way
10:28that you couldn't see that my vehicle was here inside the gate.
10:39We were taking evidence in the middle of the night,
10:422.33 in the morning.
10:44We'd go to a secret location.
10:45Christine would get out of the car,
10:47enter into another car.
10:48That's just to exchange evidence.
10:52Julia and I would come up with ways to keep it hidden.
10:57We met at Kahuna Burger.
11:02We met at Tropical Smoothie.
11:04We drove around a lot.
11:07I didn't take this and, you know,
11:09have a conversation with Moroni or anything,
11:11because if there's any questioning,
11:13the pressure gets on him, you know.
11:15Yeah.
11:16And Moroni is very obedient to him, okay?
11:20He reports everything.
11:21He reports everything.
11:29Sam sensed.
11:30That Julie was not going with the program.
11:34Hi.
11:35I love you.
11:36Hi.
11:37He knew.
11:40I just wasn't believing all that.
11:44When you say,
11:45I fear what's happening.
11:48Something's wrong and I don't feel good about it.
11:50He would say,
11:51fear and faith cannot remain in the same person at the same time.
11:54And you need to go and, you know,
11:58humble yourself because you're giving way to fears.
12:23And he's been very concerned.
12:27To the point he's turned those girls away to me from me and has them entirely convinced the word he
12:37calls me over and over in their minds day after day,
12:40which was a word we never ever even used or brought into our vocabulary, was a bitch.
12:52He made her stand in front of the group and confessed that she was a bitch.
12:57She had to take on this identity and say terrible things about herself and how bad she was.
13:03Sam was constantly coming up with stories to make all her daughters believe things about her that were not true.
13:12My children hate me.
13:24Julia told me that Sam was trying to get more and more control over the girls.
13:33Sam and his group had two houses.
13:37There was a blue house that was big and full of bedrooms.
13:44At first, most people lived in the blue house.
13:47But as Sam became more sexual,
13:50he took all of his wives and their babies
13:53and moved them a couple of blocks away to the greenhouse,
13:58which was a tiny house with only two bedrooms.
14:08He took these ladies and crammed 22 of them into a teeny tiny rundown place.
14:21Sam had a giant bed and he extended it with another bed, so they all slept together.
14:35He wanted to be completely in his own little corner and have a full control over him.
14:45Who he did not allow in the greenhouse was Julia and the other male followers.
14:54Sam was getting more and more jealous.
15:01He was so insecure.
15:17And he began to find reasons to punish the men.
15:22There's principles in our religion of punishment.
15:28If men do wrong, they just get punished.
15:30That's all there's to it.
15:41They've got to suffer a pain of mind because they have done wrong.
15:46They were lusting after your wives?
15:49They're lusting after my wives?
15:51That's adultery.
15:52It's the same thing as adultery.
15:53It's the second wickedest thing that we know about.
16:02Sometimes Sam would have the wives go over to the Blue House for a dinner and the male followers
16:11were not allowed to interact with them.
16:13In fact, Moroni had a room in the basement.
16:18He was not allowed to eat in the dining room.
16:20He was to stay in his room unless he was working.
16:26They're living in the basement.
16:28Lut.
16:29Big, smart Lut.
16:31He can't leave his room.
16:36Sam's turned on them for no reason.
16:39They've given their all.
16:41They've given literally their family, their monies, everything.
16:44And then they just get turned on.
16:49Sam became this controlling monster over Moroni.
16:54And Moroni just kept obeying Sam.
16:58You obey because there's a certain mind frame that even I went through.
17:04And that is, oh God, this has got to be right.
17:09Because if it's not right, I'm no good.
17:14I'm not even worthy to be on this earth.
17:18But it's a mind frame that you have to get past and say, something's wrong.
17:27Get the girls back and you're going to be fine.
17:30They need to come home and they need to get out of that greenhouse.
17:35Yeah.
17:50Julia was able to provide a lot of information that helped solidify the case.
17:55We were pushing to get warrants to search Sam's home.
17:59We were hoping we would have something to indict Sam on so that we could arrest him when we conducted
18:05the search warrants.
18:06But without a disclosure from an underage victim, the United States Attorney for the District of Arizona would not approve
18:14child sexual abuse charges in order to be able to arrest him.
18:21We still needed more evidence against Sam.
18:24So we needed Christine to keep playing her part and staying close to Sam.
18:31You know, give him a rope and let him hang himself.
18:41It's not comfortable living a life that is not real to you.
18:47I was so trusted.
18:57I knew that in order to help them, I had to betray them.
19:02You were the first wife.
19:04I don't look at myself that way because we're all equal.
19:08I know, I know.
19:09But you were the first wife.
19:10You were the courageous one that started this whole thing.
19:13Is that what my father?
19:15Yeah.
19:16Cool.
19:18At times, the things Christine had to do truly became ridiculous.
19:22I have some new pieces of information.
19:25Okay.
19:25Remember how I told you that he thinks that the Queen of England belongs to him?
19:30Right.
19:33Well, he's been having impressions that he needs to do a music video.
19:38It's not for self-aggrandizement.
19:40It is for the sole purpose to get the Queen to come over here because that's the next step in
19:44my mission.
19:45I don't know why.
19:46I don't care why.
19:48But that's the next thing that needs to happen.
19:49And he wants to put it on YouTube and so somehow it will get to the Queen and the Queen
19:56will come here and become his wife.
20:00So we are going along with everything.
20:02See how?
20:03Is this like, is this so, uh, slowy?
20:07Yeah.
20:07Does it make, like, for the background or something?
20:12The music video gave us all this time to interact as we kept gathering evidence.
20:17It's called behind the scenes.
20:19When you make a music video, it's very common to get behind the scenes.
20:26We'll start doing it at the 2 o'clock or something.
20:28Okay.
20:29Go, like, 2 to 9 should be good.
20:31Tolga, obviously, was the director.
20:33I guess you would say that I was the art director.
20:38Were you thinking this to go behind?
20:39Yeah.
20:40Wondered if we should drink, but we're like, is she going to do that?
20:43I was working with the girls.
20:45We need a better background.
20:47Let's make an arch with flowers.
20:50Oh, you used pinterweights.
20:52That's amazing.
20:53I never thought of that.
20:54You know, what are you going to wear and really make it seem real?
21:09Oh, that's so beautiful.
21:10Everything turned out to be beautiful.
21:13It's pretty strange.
21:14I got one.
21:17Yeah, let's just have them line up and just see the first shot.
21:20Can we, can you guys line up?
21:31We wanted to show how little the littlest ones were.
21:37And one of them was so small, she didn't even fit in the lineup.
21:43Oh, wait a minute, wait a minute.
21:44And this girl, wait.
21:48No, you're fine on the wide shot.
21:50You're fine.
21:51You're going to make her taller now.
21:54It's better.
21:55It shows that she's, she's, yeah.
22:00Sing it with feeling, okay?
22:02Do you know what I mean by sell it with your face?
22:04Like if we want to believe what you're saying, let us see it in your facial expressions.
22:10Okay.
22:10And music.
22:15So much lies in store for the little girl who enters at the gate.
22:27If you continue on this path, every promise God has given will come true.
22:48So why, why is this song important?
22:50It's just for, it tells the story of a girl's life in our religion.
22:57She's born and she's given a name and a blessing.
23:01When she's eight years old, she's baptized.
23:05Then when she's married, she pretty much has a rebirth and, and goes into her life.
23:23It really is like an orchestra, the way you work together.
23:27I'm very impressed.
23:29Emily Paul gets the credit.
23:31You need it?
23:32Does anyone take the credit?
23:33No.
23:35Thank you, Emily Paul.
23:36It's a good experience.
23:43After the video, we offered to take photos of each woman with Sam.
23:54Our goal was to get Sam with each of his underage wives.
24:04But when it came to the underage girls, Sam said, we better not do that because that's
24:12how they took Warren Jeffs down, because they had that photo evidence.
24:17And I said, of course, what was I thinking?
24:22Wait, one more.
24:24Got it.
24:31I'm waiting and waiting for the FBI to conduct the search warrant.
24:38We've been filming Sam for almost a year.
24:43We were on pins and needles.
24:45When is the arrest going to happen?
24:53And Julia was panicking.
24:56She was living in a swirl of suspicion.
25:03Sam wore a high paranoia.
25:07And he, he was watching.
25:11I had a conversation with Marona.
25:14Was it just you?
25:15Yeah, it was just me and him.
25:17He turned to me and he said, are you having temptations to report Samuel to the mall?
25:24What?
25:25He asked me that.
25:29Julia was distraught with the situation that she was living in.
25:33And we were concerned about the threats that Sam Bateman would make to her and to her daughters.
25:43If Sam found out what I was doing with Christine, he will take my children and he will take those
25:51people and he will flee.
25:53Did you end up coming over to my house?
25:55I didn't go to your place.
25:57Marona called me and said, come go for a ride with me.
26:01How'd that go?
26:02He drove us up to the cabin.
26:05As we got up onto the freeway and he said, you need to sign some papers.
26:11What?
26:12Who said it?
26:12Over, um, guardianship.
26:17Yeah, he said we need to do that so that Samuel can do with him as he would at once.
26:22Oh.
26:23Wow.
26:28Sam had been trying to get all of his wives and children to get passports.
26:34There's stuff going on.
26:35There's movements.
26:37They're buying a plane for a quarter million bucks.
26:40My goodness.
26:41He's going to leave any second.
26:43He's ready.
26:44I mean, he's going to go out of town.
26:45He's going to take the girls and go.
26:47I mean, he's getting a plane allowed.
26:52Even though we did not have enough evidence to arrest Sam on the child's sexual assault charges,
26:59there was concern as to what he might do if we did not act quickly, act decisively to alleviate the
27:07situation.
27:10So we finally made a plan to serve the search warrant the next week.
27:16We haven't aced out that fast.
27:17Maybe go over here.
27:19Maybe they're not here.
27:20No, they're not here.
27:24Hi, this is Samuel Bateman.
27:28The mailbox is full and cannot accept any messages at this time.
27:31Goodbye.
27:32I'm supposed to meet Sam and the girls, but I went to the building.
27:36They're not there.
27:37And I went to the Blue House.
27:38They're not there.
27:38And I called and his mailbox is full.
27:40I'm done.
27:52Goodbye.
27:53Goodbye.
27:53Goodbye.
28:12District 2 Units, Havia Central, located southbound 89, suspicious vehicle, unknown box trailer full of people, including children inside the
28:23vehicle.

29:06Samuel what?
29:11What is your name?
29:15Samuel.
29:16Samuel what?
29:17Okay, you have to identify yourself.
29:19You understand that, right?
29:19No.
29:20Yeah, Samuel Bateman.
29:21Samuel Bateman?
29:23I don't understand.
29:24Like, what are you doing?
29:27Samuel, I just got here.
29:28Explain to me what's going on.
29:31Stuff.
29:32Stuff?
29:32We're out here because there are supposedly people back.
29:37How many other people in the truck?
29:42How many other people are in the truck?
29:56Open the driver's side door.
30:02Hello.
30:03How many people do we have in here?
30:05Four.
30:06Okay.
30:09What's the valid car, ma'am?
30:11Ma'am, it's about a car.
30:15Are there people back here?
30:18What about in the trailer?
30:20How many people are in the trailer?
30:26How many people are in your trailer?
30:29Okay.
30:29Start walking back there.
30:30Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey.
30:31With me.
30:32Start walking back there.
30:33They don't need to go in handcuffs.
30:34We just need to get them out of here.
30:42This is the police.
30:43We're going to be opening the door.
30:46I want your hands empty and above your head.
30:50If you do not, you will suffer the consequences.
30:55Where are the hands?
30:57Let's see the hands.
30:58Let's get that other door open.
30:59There's hands sticking out of the top of the trailer earlier.
31:02Let's see them.
31:06Let's see your hands.
31:08They're out there.
31:09They're on the top.
31:09Thank you, Kurt.
31:11Okay.
31:12Keep your hands up for me.
31:14Is there anybody else inside the trailer?
31:16No?
31:16Perfect.
31:21Thank you, guys.
31:23Just head back there with your siblings, okay?
31:29Head back there with them, okay?
31:30Thank you so much.
31:42At this point, he's detained right now.
31:45He's been stuck.
31:46No, ma'am.
31:47No.
31:48You're not going to decide the outcome of this.
31:49We will decide, and we'll let you know how everything's going to happen here, okay?
31:55Sound okay?
32:01A 14-year-old, she had a ring on her ring finger.
32:04She had a ring on her finger.
32:06They've all kind of, like, hidden those.
32:08And you are nailed.
32:11The one in the red dress he's talking to is basically the ring leader.
32:16She's basically telling them all, come on.
32:20We need to talk to parents, either whether they come here and pick them up, or we get them
32:24on the phone, so we'd like to call and actually talk to the parents for all the juveniles.
32:32I got a call from one of my daughters saying, hey, we've been stopped.
32:38And three of the young girls were in the trailer.
32:41So I just want to make sure that you are, do you know where your daughters are right now?
32:49Yeah, I do.
32:51I knew that the FBI was coming, and I was under such carefulness at the time.
32:58I had to just play it on, or it would have blown apart everything we'd done so far.
33:06And you're aware of who they're with?
33:08I believe his name's Samuel?
33:10Yeah.
33:11Okay.
33:12And so it was greed that my underage daughters could be there.
33:16But I also got the officer's information and a phone number.
33:21And then I contacted FBI.
33:24Julia was frantic because Sam was possibly being arrested.
33:29My biggest thing was, hold on.
33:31Do you have information?
33:32Can I get a hold of this person?
33:34I didn't want our case to be blown.
33:36And luckily, Julia had gotten the trooper's information.
33:42Hi.
33:43Hi.
33:43So the trooper charged three felonies, which means Sam should be held at least until tomorrow morning.
33:50So we do want to keep him there?
33:51Is that what we want?
33:53The longer he stays in, the better it is for me.
33:55But we're still having a lot of discussions about that.
33:59Hey, listen.
34:00One of the girls down the other line.
34:02Do you want me to mute your phone, and I'll three-way and talk to her, and you can listen?
34:07Sure.
34:07Okay.
34:09Hi.
34:11You know, I got the...
34:12It's going to be okay, but I'm sorry.
34:14I just have to cry.
34:16It's okay.
34:16You can cry.
34:19It's okay.
34:20It's just a traumatizing experience.
34:23What's happening?
34:24What's happening?
34:25I feel like I'm out on the battlefield and I don't know where to go.
34:29Oh, my goodness.
34:31This is such a scary situation.
34:33Remember, these people don't even know who Samuel is.
34:36This has nothing to do with your mission or with his calling.
34:44Nothing like that.
34:45This is really just about having the girls in the back of the truck.
34:49So, let's remember to not give it bigger meaning than it really has.
34:57And...
34:58I think I was.
34:59Yeah.
35:00So, okay.
35:01So, I'll call you back when I learn more.
35:05Okay.
35:05Okay, thanks.
35:06Thank you so much.
35:07Love you.
35:07Bye-bye.
35:10Okay.
35:11Um, very good.
35:12Very good.
35:13You do so well with them.
35:15Oh, I didn't know.
35:16I didn't know if I had to grade myself, if I would give myself an A.
35:20Probably not.
35:21Anyway, um...
35:22The thing is, it's going to get media.
35:23It's going to get all kinds of things, you know?
35:26Right.
35:27I mean, I'm not sure.
35:28And that's what we don't want.
35:28Yeah.
35:31Newt, tonight, the leader of a small polygamous sect in northern Arizona facing several charges
35:36after law enforcement found him transporting several young girls inside a trailer in Flagstaff.
35:43That man's still behind bars tonight.
35:45He pleaded not guilty.
35:47The media got interested in the story, and the girls were afraid for their safety.
35:54If a lot of you show up in your FLDS dress,
35:58the question would be whether that would create media that you don't want.
36:02Yeah, because the video was like, oh my God, we can't even find it.
36:07Does anybody have any Gentile clothes?
36:11No, but we can figure out how to get them.
36:15The question is, what kind of Gentile do you want to be?
36:18A modest Gentile?
36:20A badass Gentile?
36:21I don't want to be a Gentile.
36:24I'm rebellious.
36:25Yeah, look at that.
36:26That one's perfect.
36:26Because it's like a shirt dress.
36:28What about something like that with like a T underneath?
36:31Sure.
36:32Something that kind of hangs down, but not like a dress.
36:37Oh, if I'm going to go to home.
36:41You can talk.
36:50They took us to the trailer, and they explained what happened.
36:55It's quite a bit different than what, but you can kind of look.
36:57There's two chairs, two big chairs in the back.
37:00Camping staff.
37:00Camping staff.
37:01Oh, yeah, okay.
37:02Oh, and that's your bathroom.
37:03It was obvious that this was a system that they had used before to transport these children.
37:10I want your hands empty and above your head.
37:18Later finding out that the trailer doors weren't secure, and that's how somebody even knew they were in there.
37:23It's because they reached to hold those doors shut because they started coming unlatched.
37:29Yeah, that's how it was.
37:30The slightest thing that's gone wrong, those girls have been flung onto the freeway.
37:35The thought is sickening.
37:39Togan and I are in Flagstaff.
37:41How are you feeling?
37:44It's really nuts.
37:46I feel crazy sick to my stomach.
37:47Anyway, we're going to go.
37:50We're going to pick up the profit from jail.
37:55Torrance is coming in from the creek with $150,000.
38:01No joke.
38:04Cash, bond, whatever cash, bail.
38:07Okay.
38:08I'm going to take two of the girls with us.
38:12Okay, I'll be back.
38:15Oh, crap.
38:18An index at Poconville County Jail.
38:22T is over there with the bail money in about 10 minutes or so.
38:29We'll see you in not very long.
38:33We need you.
38:37We are driving out of Flagstaff with Father today.
38:43How do you like being a Gentile for 15 minutes?
38:45It's nice to kind of fit in every once in a while, just like nobody.
38:49No, not the fit in.
38:50It's just doing it for him.
38:52I don't want to fit in.
38:53So I'm actually extremely comfortable living like I am.
38:59Not like this.
39:00I don't care what everybody says.
39:02I don't care what they think.
39:03Yeah.
39:04Because in our minds, we're celebrities.
39:07Right.
39:08We're different.
39:09We're...
39:09Right.
39:13We've chosen to live higher standards.
39:16So all it shows people is that we're living higher standards because we love God and the prophets.
39:37She's doing the paperwork to get the bond.
39:39Biggest bail she's ever seen in this county.
39:43That's cash.
39:44Wow.
39:46Yeah.
39:46What you here for?
39:48You want a friend like this?
39:49You want a friend like this?
39:49I'm here to find our friend.
39:52Good.
39:52And get him.
39:53That's right.
39:54Our dear, dear friend.
40:04Get out of here.
40:10We're going to go over to that gray door.
40:15We really didn't want Sam to be released.
40:18It was just not something that we could prevent.
40:21We worked with it.
40:22We worked with it.
40:26No, we took your phone.
40:29We're putting it into evidence.
40:31Please, what's happening?
40:32One mail.
40:32Your phone will be at the Department of Public Safety here in Flagstaff at the crime lab.
40:39Hello.
40:41Hello.
40:43Sam posted bail.
40:47Did they give you a phone?
40:48Well, I stole it.
40:49Are you serious?
40:52But the FBI made sure they took his phone.
40:55They won't give you a phone.
40:56If they're on the bribery, there's a good chance you're not going to get it back.
40:59You're going to lose it for sure.
41:00Sam got in our car and immediately started committing crimes.
41:07Um, what I'm wondering is, is, uh, is there a way to, in fact, the date reset thing at home?
41:17Stole my phone with me and all this stuff on it.
41:19I don't know anything wrong to me.
41:21It has, it has your life story on it.
41:23Well, wherever you were busted with, they take it, make it evidence.
41:26So, there might not be anything here, but you just, they keep it.
41:29It has your life story on it.
41:31What do you mean?
41:32And then I'll just say, is there anything bad or something?
41:36Can you shut down the signal?
41:38I just can't.
41:39Yeah.
41:40I can't.
41:41Oh.
41:43Oh.
41:44It's, uh,
41:45It's, uh,
41:47It's, uh,
41:56It's, uh,
42:00It's, uh,
42:18When Sam was arrested, it sort of confirms to his wives that he's a prophet because he's being persecuted.
42:27So, they felt honored.
42:29I mean, this was like being part of biblical history.
42:36I want to tell you something.
42:38Going to prison is not a big deal.
42:39It's like camp.
42:41But when Heavenly Father takes away his spirit from me, that's when it gets serious.
42:51Okay, we're going to take off.
42:52We're glad you're out.
42:54Call us if you need anything.
42:56Love you guys.
42:57Take care.
43:05I couldn't film anymore.
43:07I couldn't do it anymore.
43:08I couldn't see any more of their love and their, you know, I mean, they're crying.
43:12They love him.
43:13Just imagining how much they're going to hate us, you know, uh, how much they love us and trust us.
43:19And the whole thing just, when he was talking about, um, deleting, I mean, his phone.
43:28Yeah.
43:29I filmed that.
43:30Oh, gotcha.
43:31I was sitting in the back and I filmed them saying, well, maybe we can factory reset.
43:35We've got to get that.
43:37Yeah.
43:37You know, I sent it.
43:50So, have you all kind of calmed down and you feel okay now after all that experience?
43:54It's just weird.
43:55The whole thing's weird.
43:58It's almost like they changed it from a misdemeanor to a felony.
44:02I just have to wonder if they might have had something, like the police from here knew something and called
44:09them.
44:09Is there a way to do that?
44:10No, they probably, it probably showed up in the, it probably showed up in the police record.
44:14Okay.
44:15They might have called and said, hey, what happened with you guys?
44:17Yeah, I don't know.
44:20After the Flagstaff arrest, he just knew, like, something was up.
44:24So, we were like, you got to just calm down.
44:28I don't think it's going to be a big deal.
44:30If we worry about it, it'll track you.
44:31Yeah, it's literally, if we worry about it, it's going to happen.
44:34I just, I don't trust the government at all.
44:36I just don't think you have anything to worry about.
44:42Sam felt like he was being targeted by law enforcement, but at that point, I think he believed that it
44:48was strictly local law enforcement after him.
44:51He was still unaware that there was any federal investigation against him.
44:55He didn't know that his phone was in federal custody at that time, where they were looking for additional evidence.
45:02The crazy thing is that Sam's phone was not the treasure trove of evidence that I was hoping for.
45:08He did not have inappropriate photos of the girls.
45:12He did not have inappropriate conversations with the girls to a large extent.
45:17There wasn't nothing definitive for crimes, but it was when he was released from jail, he was trying to factory
45:23reset his entire phone.
45:25Christine was able to surreptitiously record that.
45:29Is there a way to factory reset?
45:32And that evidence allowed us to bring federal obstruction of justice charges against Sam.
45:40We finally had what we needed for the arrest of Sam Bateman.
45:45Hey, anything else you need to talk about?
45:47Can I film the prayer room, get a tour of the prayer room?
45:50Yeah, of course.
45:51Oops, sorry.
45:53The FBI was planning a big raid that involved 50 FBI agents from around different states.
46:04The FBI said, film everything.
46:06It's coming from...
46:08They want to see the entrance from inside the house.
46:12You know, where the cars are.
46:17We had to go in prepared for the worst.
46:22Do they keep their doors locked or unlocked?
46:24Locked.
46:25Okay.
46:27They're under strict orders never to open the door to law enforcement.
46:33We won't stand out there for probably even five minutes.
46:37It usually doesn't take us long to open the door ourselves.
46:41I was shaky because I didn't know if there would be violence.
46:47Julia had had concerns about guns.
46:50Did you guys take the gun from Mariah's closet?
46:53Is that still there?
46:55I believe that they had access to some rifles for hunting.
46:58You guys have guns?
47:00No.
47:02Oh.
47:03We failed.
47:04Yes.
47:05It must be yes.
47:07There had been reports that Sam had taken some of the girls out to practice shooting with handguns.
47:13So the reports were there that it was a potential.
47:17They told me, they looked me in the eye, they said,
47:20that if anything happens to Father Samuel, that they will kill and they will level the state with violence.
47:28The parent going up is going to tighten her up.
47:32I mean, no one's going to be very, very, very aggressive.
47:35Yeah.
47:35She's the one that will do any dirty work, absolutely anything.
47:40Oh, I know.
47:42He has essentially complete control over her mind.
47:58Oh, I didn't feel lucky.
48:01We're married to the right person.
48:05And I'm very sad.
48:07Daniel, it was one of the most beautiful things I'd ever witnessed, and we could feel Heavenly Father's prayer.
48:15He wants our whole heart, and we cannot tie it to anything on this earth more than God.
48:23I do this cheerfully, and there is zero resistance, because I will obey.
48:45I believe he was my only way to heaven, back to God.
48:53If he held the keys to my salvation, anything I did would damn me if he didn't approve of it.
49:05This world's going to change.
49:06The Lord is going to use me to change this world.
49:09So I was going to be submissive and obedient, becoming the perfect wife.
49:16I mean, why did our Savior hang on the cross and spill blood?
49:18Because blood is an atoning principle.
49:21I became a master at gauging how he wanted me to respond, and that was how I would respond.
49:30I promise there will be men who beg to have their blood spilled.
49:35And then eventually, I would do whatever he wanted.
49:41I promise there will be men who beg to have their blood.
49:44I promise there will be men who beg to have their blood.
49:48I promise there will be men who beg to have their blood.
49:51I promise there will be men who beg to have their blood.
49:52I promise there will be men who beg to have their blood.
49:59I promise there will be men who beg to have their blood.
50:00I promise there will be men who beg to have their blood.
50:00I promise there will be men who beg to have their blood.
50:01I promise there will be men who beg to have their blood.
50:01I promise there will be men who beg to have their blood.
50:04I promise there will be men who beg to have their blood.
