Prophet of Death

Jeffrey Lundgren began preaching his unique dogma of radical Mormonism in Independence, Missouri. To the members of his small but fanatically devoted sect, he was the Last Prophet, whose coming was foretold in the Book of Mormon. Lundgren used his own twisted interpretations of religious texts to justify any excess — perversion, sexual slavery, even human sacrifice. And on April 17, 1989, Lundgren & a group of his followers led the Avery family — a husband, wife & their 3 young children — into a barn in rural Ohio . . . & slaughtered them, one by one. This is a terrifying true account of mind control, sex, religious obsession & murder. Photos.
