Could do that to her. Just pure evil. Keith morrison with black friday but first tonight a powerful prophets dark secret and the daring daughter, telling all. Hes my dad. He was supposed to be my protector and he wasnt. Reporter rachel was a captive of a notorious, polygamous church seen here in rare home video. The flock, ruled by her father, warren jeffs. From our youngest years we were taught obey the prophet. Forced to marry a man shed never met and share a home, with other wives. Reporter the two preexisting wives did not like you. No. Now, in a new book, her ultimate, inside account of the churchs most sinister secret. When i saw him marryin little girls, thats what made me really angry. Reporter and her shattering claim about the father she was ordered to obey. Father, do you realize what youre doing . I was just revolted in my heart. After a lifetime of submission, how she risked it all to escape. I knew father would try to stop me. Im lester holt and this is delta dateline. Heres megyn kelly with the prophets daughter. Reporter the road to redemption can be a long one, full of twists and turns through places never imagined like the wilds of Northern Idaho where on this first weekend of fall 2017 Something Special is underway. We call upon heaven to bless this union. Reporter just a few years ago, this wedding would have never been allowed to happen. It would have been called wicked, immoral, even sinful back in her other lifetime. When she wore those long prairie dresses, shared her husband with four other wives and was trapped in a life of polygamy. Until youve been in captivity, you dont know how wonderful that freedom is. Reporter it took more than 30 years for rachel jeffs to find freedom. She was born into the fundamentalist church of latter day saints of flds, a radical offshoot of mormonism that has been condemned by the traditional mormon church. For decades, flds members have openly practiced plural marriage, polygamy. Are you warren jeffs . Yes. Reporter you may have heard of their notorious leader, who made the fbis most wanted list. But tonight, we go inside this polygamous sect like never before with exclusive home video clips and rare pictures to reveal new details and dark secrets about the flds and the man who still runs it, the socalled prophet, who just happens to be rachels very own father, the infamous warren jeffs. Father, hes a master deceiver. Ive seen him brainwash and deceive the most intelligent people. I saw how it really was from the top. Reporter from the inside. Uhhuh. Reporter rachel was the first child of warrens second wife. Here she is with her mother barbara. Her first home was this secretive flds compound outside Salt Lake City. We were taught that the world was wicked, that everybody out here was just the most terrible people. Reporter back then, rachels grandfather rulon jeffs, warrens dad, ran the flds. He was the prophet, preaching to his followers they were the only truly righteous people, that plural marriage would ensure their salvation. When you were growing up, generally, how many wives did your dad have at that time . Till i was seven, father only had two wives. And then after that, he got em just every few years. So by the time i was 18, he had at least 30 wives. Reporter seemed perfectly normal to you . Uhhuh. Yeah, very much reporter eventually warren had some 78 wives and more than 50 children. As seen in these rare photos which rachel is now sharing for the first time. To keep order, rachel says her father assigned everyone to a daily list of chores. He even required a uniform of sorts. Men generally wore jeans and long sleeve shirts. But the women were more formal. Thats little rachel in her flds prairie dress. The dress code was wear a skirt to your ankles, sleeves had to be to our wrists and, you know, had to be up to our neck. We had to have our hair braided. We couldnt wear makeup. Reporter what was the main source of tension in the house . Jealousy. Certain moms were mad at other moms cause they wanted to spend time with father. And he was the kinda person to have his favorites. So he would spend time with only a few of em. And the rest were just, like, servants in the house. Reporter but unlike warrens many wives, most of his children got along. Rachel was especially close with her halfsisters. One, were calling angela and becky, who sat down with us to discuss life in the everexpanding jeffs family. Growing up in a polygamous home was normal. And i really loved having all the siblings. So no matter who they were born from, we just merged together and take care of all of em. Reporter somehow, warren managed to find time to entertain his flock of children, who all seemed to love and admire him. He was the best father in the whole world. I mean, he would sit down, read stories with us. He sings with us every day. We practically worshiped him. He was the hero. Reporter sometimes warren would take the family hiking or fishing in the nearby mountains. But they never interacted with outsiders and saw very little of the surrounding city. Most of the family didnt know very much because he made us think everybody out here was just such terrible people. Reporter isolated on the outskirts of Salt Lake City and hidden away in their walledoff compound, rachels family kept to themselves. The children were not allowed to leave without permission. The family always ate meals together and learned to entertain themselves without tv, radio or the internet, which were off limits. Much of the familys time was spent doing chores or listening to their fathers lectures. Now i remind you, the devil works through the weaknesses of the body. The lord works with us through the spirit. Reporter warren also ran the churchs school, the alta academy. Here rachel learned the basics of reading, writing and arithmetic. We had just general schooling. Its very churchbased. Reporter mainstream history . Science . No, none of that. Reporter and unlike other teenagers at the time, she knew nothing of popular culture. No mtv, Michael Jackson or madonna. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you, ladies and gentlemen. Reporter instead her father often provided some of the entertainment. The three bears, episode two. Reporter but mostly warren made sure that the morals and tenets of the flds were drilled into the students especially his children. Obedience was the first law of heaven. We were always taught to keep sweet. You cant get mad about anything. Reporter was it forbidden to feel anger . You werent posed to feel anger because because then you werent keepin sweet. If youre keeping sweet no matter what, youre a person ready to give up your own will. Reporter rachel always kept sweet and made sure to obey her father, which seemed to give her special status among warrens many children. He singled me out, and i was the kind of person to want to please him. Reporter but as rachel would soon discover, being her fathers favorite came with a price. A very high price it would all start with a summons to her fathers office. When we come back, what she says she saw inside. I was just revolted in my heart. A daughter raised to revere her dad, shaken to the core. I just remember thinkin, do fathers teach their girls these kind of things .

Then one day when she was 8, rachel says her father called her down the hall to his office. Something he had done many times before. But this day was different. A day, rachel says, when everything changed. He didnt really say much. I just thought, father, do you realize what youre doing . Reporter he exposed himself to you . He exposed himself. And i was just revolted in my heart. Reporter and he asked you to pleasure him . Yeah. But it was just more like as though he was giving me a lesson. Reporter as she sat in her fathers office, rachel as always obeyed. But this time she could not understand. I just felt so sad. So hurt. Its the most terrible feeling that ive ever felt. And i just remember thinking,do fathers teach their girls these kind of things . And i knew in my heart that it felt wrong. And it made me scared of him. Eventually after what she says were several horrifying incidents, rachel told her mother. I just was crying. And i said, father is makin me touch him, and touchin me in private spots. And she was just mad. That is not okay, rachel. I hear her go down to fathers room. Reporter rachel desperately hoped her mother would protect her. Instead, rachel says her mom obeyed, kept sweet and let warren have his way. She never said a word after that about it. Never, ever. And she still let father have time alone with me. She never ever tried to prevent i know she didnt agree. Reporter according to rachel the abuse continued frequently usually in her fathers office. It just felt like a piece of me was lost. How many times did he abuse you . I dont know. Too many to count. Reporter rachel says her father swore her to secrecy. She didnt even tell her sister becky. I did not know he was molesting her. When we became teenagers i got this scared feeling that he looks like hes treating her like a wife. Why is he looking at her like that . And i would think, oh, no. No, he wouldnt do that. No, he wouldnt do that. Reporter but he did, says rachel, on and off for eight more years. Then when she was 16 he had told me to come talk to him and so he told me to come sit by him, and he took my hand and put it on him. And i pulled it away. And i just stood up and walked out of his room and shut the door. And i had never done that before. Like nobody treated father like that. Reporter rachel ran to her room and did the unthinkable. She wrote her father an angry letter. One of her sisters just happened to snap this shot as she was writing it. I just told him, father, i hate you when you do these things. I hate you when you when you hurt me like that and i am so tired of you doing that to me. Reporter that night, rachel left the letter inside her fathers office. The next day, they met. He just looked at me with a really like, how could you hurt me like reporter he was the victim . Yeah, he became the victim. And then he gets down on his knees with his hands together like this and hes just like, rachel, please forgive me. And hed say it, said it over and over again. And i was just like, yeah, i forgive you. Reporter did he ever abuse you again . No. Never again. He treated me kinder than i thought he would. But i think it was to keep me silent. Reporter rachel felt unable to share her explosive secret. You cant tell anybody, because no matter what, fathers gonna be protected. Hes the good guy. So basically everyone is gonna look at you as the bad person. Reporter how isolating. It was very, very painful to know i was the only one that really knew who father was. Reporter meanwhile, her fathers power was growing. Warren became second in command of the church to his father rulon. As the millennium approached, warren passed on a revelation from the aging prophet. Salt lake city would soon be destroyed, because the end times were coming. Warren moved his entire 40member family to the fields headquarters along the utaharizona border where they would join some 10,000 other loyal flds followers who lived there. Reporter Church Members call the area short creek. We moved to short creek. It was a huge change for us. There was a lot more meetings, trainings. Reporter trainings are when what . The whole people gather together and he preaches. If the lord has a message through me this morning to do fathers will, i yearn and do submit my will to him. Reporter outwardly rachel remained loyal to her father. Inside, she was still devastated by what she said he had done to her. Then on her 18th birthday, warren sent her a card with this unexpected note inside, which rachel read for us. So he wrote, forgive me any bad examples i have set. May the lord bless you forever. Reporter and what did you understand that to be a reference to . I knew he was referring to what he had done to me as a child. And i have a couple others of him asking forgiveness. Reporter rachel kept all those notes and filed them away. The only evidence of the abuse she says her father had inflicted. She thought her problems with him were over. But little did she know, he had Something Else in mind for her with a man she had never met. Coming up. Rachel was about to be forced into a new life, where she was expected to honor and obey. I think polygamist men feel very much like a king in their household. Inside her new home, where she was considered, the competition. The two preexisting wives did not like you.

Chief meteorologist jeff ranieri is tweeting about the next chance of showers and how it could affect your weekend plans. Back in an hour. Reporter sunday in short creek, 2002. After a long day in church, rachel jeffs and her sister changing surprise waiting for them. After a song then hes like, rachel and becky i want you to get your wedding dresses done by friday. Youre gonna get married. Oh, i was just so shocked. I looked at him like, what . You didnt ask me. I just walked out and bawled and bawled. I wasnt ready. I was 18, but i still wasnt ready. Reporter and whom would they marry . Rachel and becky had no idea. That was up to their father. Nobody found out till they walked in the room. Wait a minute. Most people dont find out until theyre at the chapel . Yeah, until they walk in the room. Fathers right there, their wife is right there and they get married. Did you have the luxury of meeting him the day before . Yes, yes. He was 25. And he had two wives and three children. And then i was gonna be his third wife. Reporter his name was rich, richard allred. His older brother was picked to be beckys husband. The weddings were held, not at a chapel, but at this churchowned motel in caliente, nevada. First rachel, then becky with their father presiding. When it came time to say, i do, i just stood there and stared at my father. I wouldnt say anything. He kept noddin his head and mouthing, i do. I do. Finally i just said very quietly, i do. Reporter rachel said i do as well. While her wedding pictures look happy they didnt tell the whole story. Just 18, she had suddenly gone from single woman to plural wife in a home where she was seen as a rival. The two preexisting wives did not like you. No. They were so dang jealous, and so they would try to snoop in my stuff and see if rachels havin sex with richard or is she expecting. As a wife in the flds, what was expected of you . Were you supposed to give him sex whenever he wanted it . I think especially polygamist men feel very much like a king in their household. Could you ever say no to sexual intercourse, ever . Not really. Reporter but rich and rachel, strangers at first, gradually fell in love. Hed always say, rachel, youre different than my other wives. You know, i dont know he tried to make me feel like i was so special and stuff. Reporter a few months after the wedding rachel became pregnant. But the news of rachels first baby was soon overshadowed by the death of her grandfather, rulon jeffs, the prophet. He was 92. As expected his son warren took over. By 2002, he was the most powerful man in the church. But privately, rachel questioned his authority. Of course, i knew what i did about father and i just never really felt like father was the prophet. I tried to decide if he was sometimes, cause i was tryin to be good, so to say, in the church. Reporter after warren became the prophet, he banished nearly two dozen men he considered disloyal or a threat to his power. The only men that become gods in the eternal world are those that live plural marriage properly. Reporter warren also wasted little time arranging marriages for many of his fathers widows. Including several for himself. Later he even started marrying girls, some as young as 13. Even though the weddings were secret, he proudly had them photographed. That could be his daughter. Why is she sleeping in his room . Hes sleeping with a girl my age. Oh, my goodness. Reporter warrens activities were also catching the attenti
