Hm, I really wonder what strange and malicious tales would surface if everyone had to tell the truth for just 24 hours (a la Jim Carrey in 'Liar Liar')?
Just what does THIS information mean for the legitimacy of the Warren Jeffs' trial and conviction? A KSL article says this:
"Did a witness lie on the stand and fabricate evidence during FLDS leader Warren Jeffs' trial?
That's what the Washington County attorney's office says they are investigating.
A deputy attorney confirmed to KSL they received information that Jane Blackmore, a midwife to Elissa Wall during a miscarriage and witness in the trial, lied during her testimony.
They are also looking into whether medical records she provided are accurate.
Jeffs was convicted of being an accomplice to the rape of Wall, for forcing her to marry her 19-year-old cousin when she was 14."
Also, the Salt Lake Tribune has this article: Allegations of Fabricated Records Surface in Jeffs case, and the Plural Life Blog has a Motion filed by Attorney General Mark Shurtleff.
A pertinent question now is, how much did Elissa know? This is especially meaningful in light of the fact that apparently this information surfaced as a result of a conversation between Shannon Price and Elissa's husband Lamont.
I don't accept that Jane Blackmore merely reconstructed original records that were lost or destroyed. If that were the case, she should have testified to that in court. Further, why were the records submitted "doctored" to appear like original records? That goes beyond a mere memory reconstruction, it is fabrication, folks.
