Two prosecutors from the Washington County attorney's office in Utah were in court, as was Jeffs' brother, Isaac Jeffs, 32, who was driving when they were stopped. Isaac Jeffs did not speak with reporters. Smith said Jeffs would be held without bail after he arrives at the Purgatory Correctional Facility in Hurricane, Utah. He will be segregated from other inmates in a solo cell with one hour per day for recreation, the sheriff said, and up to two hours of visitation a week. The federal warrant on which Jeffs had been held, accusing him of unlawful flight to avoid prosecution, remained active Thursday, said Melodie Rydalch, spokeswoman for the U.S. attorney's office in Salt Lake City. "We're waiting to see if it is needed," Rydalch said of the charge, which carries a possible penalty of up to 10 years in federal prison. Jeffs' sect split from the mainstream Mormon Church when the Mormons disavowed polygamy more than 100 years ago. Jeffs took over in 2002 after the Western Wats Western Wats has increased wages, and we are still willing to work around your schedule.

He is said to have at i least 40 wives and nearly . 60 children. i Prosecutors hope the arrest will break his hold on his followers and empower them to speak out about their lives within a sect that condoned marriages of young girls. In past attempts to prosecute polygamists within the sect, victims have faced pressure to stay quiet from insular communities in Hildale and Colorado City, where residents consider Jeffs a prophet of God. Just this week, a sexual assault trial of another sect member was put on hold after the alleged victim, a woman married off at 16, refused to testify. "They pretty much have to renounce their entire heritage to go against the prophet," said Arizona Attorney General Terry Goddard. "That has got to be hard to do." One accuser in Utah said Jeffs performed a wedding over her repeated objections. After the girl continued to resist for a month, Jeffs ordered her to "give your mind, body and soul to your husband like you're supposed to," according to an affidavit obtained by The Associated Press. "Go back and do what he tells you to do," Jeffs said, according to the affidavit. Arizona also has a warrant for Jeffs, issued in June 2005. But Utah will prosecute him first because it has a stronger case and more serious charges of rape by accomplice. DON'T FORGET THE STATESMAN PHOTO CONTEST! ALL SUBMISSIONS MUST BE IN BY SEPT. 15.
