Show Page A6 - THE DAILY HERALD, Provo, Utah, Friday, August 20, Judge OKs suit saying church stole wife ST. GEORGE (A) A judge has denied motions to dismiss the lawsuit of a man who claims a polygamous church persuaded his wife and children to leave him. Jason Miles Williams, 24, claims he was forced out of his Colorado City, Ariz., home last December. He contends Rulon Jeffs, leader of the Fundamentalist Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints, and Jeffs' nun, Warren, coerced his wife, Suzanne, to leave his family because "she had no chance of salvation if she were to remain married" to Williams. Fifth District Judge James L. Shumate will to allow Williams' complaint to go forward. The Spectrum reported in a copyright story Thursday. Williams seeks $10 million in damages for alienation of affection and intentional infliction of emotional distress. His wife has filed for divorce in Mohave County, Ariz., citing irreconcilable differences. The lawsuit names others besides Jeffs, including his son, Warren Jeffs, a leader in the ( . j f i ! church, and Lester Johnson, the man Suzanne reportedly married. Shumate on Monday dismissed the complaint against Suzanne Williams' father, Frank Jessop. Chris Edwards, Williams' attorney, said his client does not want to divorce his wife, who lives in Hildale. "His concern is he had a wonderful marriage, but pressures placed on her by the church caused her to do things she wouldn't have normally done," Edwards said. Jeffs' attorneys say they haven't decided what to do next or whether they will appeal Shumate's ruling. "We'll take it as it comes," said Rodney Parker. "We're going to very aggressively defend this (suit), because we believe it has no merit." r Ag officials push for funds to fight crickets SALT IJVKE CITY (AP) State Agriculture Department officials said unless the Legislature and Congress come up with more money, next year will see a repeat of the devastating crop losses from grasshoppers and Mormon crickets. "The worst-casscenario materialized this year, causing e $22.5 million in crop losses in Box Elder and Tooele counties alone," department spokesman Wilson Dick told the Natural Legislature's Resources, Agriculture and Environment Committee. Damage caused by the crickets and grasshoppers in 16 other Utah counties this spring and summer "was also significant, but has not been docuWilson said mented," Wednesday. Wilson said the destruction caused this year by the pests will continue for at least another year or two unless federal, state and local governments and private landowners work together in an attempt to exterminate as many of the insects as possible. State Agriculture Commissioner Cary Pederson said it is impossible to eradicate the pests, but they can be knocked down to manageable populations with enough pesticide spraying and poisoned bait. The problem is coming up with enough money to battle the crickets and grasshoppers at the right time, next spring right after the eggs hatch, Peterson said. He added that it is important for the federal government become involved because most of the eggs were laid on Bureau of Land Management or Forest Service lands.
