Der Kingston Clan - Flucht aus der Polygamie

Believe it or not, polygamy is still happening in America. This program shows how three sisters from polygamy help others escape Kingston clan, a subset of The Mormons. Bill Kurtis did an episode about the Kingstons and their secretive order. The Kingstons are like the FLDS but without prairie dresses. The Kingstons are a dangerous sect run by men who marry young girls to old men without a choice. If I was one of these girls, I would run as fast as I can. One of the girls had $60,000 in a Kingston Bank and they would only let her take $5,000 at most. The sister escaped to Seattle where another sister attends law school. The Kingston clan has already sent somebody to Seattle to bring her home. The Kingston clan is a cult of many secrets like the FLDS.

I think the bad reviews are written by the polygamists who are not happy being exposed. I recommend watching this and making up your own mind. From what I know of Mormons both FLDS and mainstream they are major creeps. I don't see anything fake about it. Read some books on the subject. They are secretive and don't like for people to know anything about them. Jon Krakauer has an excellent book titled Under the Banner of Heaven where you can be educated on the history of the entire kooky religion. When they did an episode out near where I live in southern Utah it was the best. Most of those women don't leave because they are terrified and know nothing of the real world. They are not allowed TV or internet. It's true. Read about it and judge the show for yourself.

oh my gosh! This show! wow. How amazing and how brave for a show like this come along. It horrifies me that Polygamy is still going on in this country. It disgusts me! The real women in this who had the courage to get away from that terrible, terrible environment amaze me! and it amazes me that they want to help so many others escape as well. I still cannot believe that these disgusting men haven't been to jail yet. My hope is that because of this show that these men go to jail for life and that they never see the light of day. This is brainwashing to the max!! And when they help people escape from their rooms, my heart races because I want them to get out as soon as possible without getting caught! I will always love this show and I love the message of the show too.

I spent 10 years as a drug and alcohol counselor mostly, working with the Dept. of Corrections.

I spent 7 years as a Fugitive Recovery Agent.

I have spent the last several years as a Private Investigator.

I believe I have much to offer the program, (not the TV program but more of the 'process').

I believe I have a lot to offer. Are opportunities available?

I have a lot of life left and a need to do something for my fellow human beings.

Thank you, CW

and keep up the good work!

I just happened to catch an episode of this tonight and I was so close to changing the channel but then I saw the opening theme and I was shocked. I knew cults existed but wow was I enlightened tonight. this is one of the saddest most inhumane things I've ever heard of. the fact that this "order" exists and that the law enforcement and powerful people of Utah just look away from the incest and abuse is horrid. I'm not sure about these negative reviews and how other people are saying that it's just members of the cult trying to downplay this show and get people to think its fake but I truly don't believe this is fake. do they overdramatize certain scenes? yes. do they cut to commercials at cheesy times just to make it more "exicting"? yes. but I truly believe that this show is the true portrayal of 3 girls who made it out of this cult and are trying to help others do the same. it's just unfortunate that the network that this show is on thinks that they have to use cheap reality show tactics to get viewers. I was moved to tears listening to how brainwashed these women/girls are. it's a very sad situation that I don't think will ever get fixed because of the power/money of the men who run this group. so decide for yourself if you think this show is scripted or not. my vote is no and I'll definitely be watching again soon.
