Works of Betty Jessop
Carolyn's second child, Betty Jane Jessop, turned eighteen in 2007 and returned to the FLDS, stating that there was nothing for her outside of it and that she disliked the outside world. As was acknowledged in her mother's book, Betty said that she kicked and screamed when she was first taken out of the FLDS, and that the years that followed were traumatic. She disputed the claims in Carolyn's book, saying "it just makes me want to laugh." In 2009 it was announced that she would be writing her own book with the help of her older half-sister, Maggie Jessop. Betty states that her father instructed them to tell only the truth, to allow readers to come across their own conclusions, and not to "slam Carolyn."

For scholars and for poets after us,
