Here is the video for the Fox 13 Now news coverage of the Family or Felony? Polygamy and the Law Conference
and here is where the article is.
The Salt Lake Tribune reported about the conference here.
I would just like to clarify some things that may not be clear from the news pieces above:
The legal conference brought together a variety of viewpoints, prosecutorial, defense, family law, historical, etc. The intention of the conference was to generate a dialogue and open discussion of opposing perspectives regarding polygamy and the law, and based on the feedback forms and the feedback we received in person and by email, I feel we achieved that. One speaker specifically presented on the topic of decriminalization, but some speakers presented the opposing view to that.
Thank you to everyone who participated and attended. :o)

The conference was a really wonderful experience - both for those who are from the community which practices plural marriage and those of us who aren't. I really enjoyed the speakers as well as interacting with different members of the fundamentalist Mormon community with which I hadn't had a chance to meet previously.
Thanks Mary and Anne for putting this on. You taught a couple of graduate students from Colorado a lot.
Thank you, Shane! It was great meeting you in person. I wish I'd had more time to actually visit. Maybe there'll be another opportunity in the future. :o)
