Rebecca Musser grew up in fear, concealing her family's polygamous lifestyle from the "dangerous" outside world. Covered head-to-toe in strict, modest clothing, she received a rigorous education at Alta Academy, the Fundamentalist Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints' school headed by Warren Jeffs.
Always seeking to be an obedient Priesthood girl, in her teens she became the nineteenth wife of her people's prophet: 85-year-old Rulon Jeffs, Warren's father. Finally sickened by the abuse she suffered and saw around her, she pulled off a daring escape and sought to build a new life and family. The church, however, had a way of pulling her back in - and by 2007, Rebecca had no choice but to take the witness stand against the new prophet of the FLDS in order to protect her little sisters and other young girls from being forced to marry at shockingly young ages. The following year, Rebecca and the rest of the world watched as a team of Texas Rangers raided the Yearning for Zion Ranch, a stronghold of the FLDS.
Rebecca's subsequent testimony would reveal the horrific secrets taking place behind closed doors of the temple, sending their leaders to prison for years, and Warren Jeffs for life.
The Witness Wore Red is a gripping account of one woman's struggle to escape the perverse embrace of religious fanaticism and sexual slavery, and a courageous story of hope and transformation.
Info regarding .m4b format
— .m4b is a great format for audiobooks, because fewer files (usually only 1-2) are needed. They remember where you last listened, just like if you put a bookmark in a book, or paused a CD player.
— If you want to keep the book in an itunes playlist, then set the property "Media kind" to "Music".
— If you would like the book to appear in the Audiobook section of iTunes / iPod, then change the itunes file property "Media kind" to "Audiobook".
— .m4b files can be played with any software that plays .mp4 or .m4a. You simply have to right click and select "Open with". Otherwise .m4b files default to open in iTunes, or may register as unrecognised. But VLC or any other player that handles mp4 can also play m4b.
— The .m4b extension can be changed to .mp4 or .m4a if you do not use iTunes/iPod. No conversion needed, just change the file extension.
