	Jeffs Jury Will Continue Deliberations Monday By Ennifer Dobner Daily Herald September 22, 2007 http://www.heraldextra.com/content/view/238291/4/ St. George — A jury went home Friday without reaching a verdict in the trial of a polygamous-sect leader accused of sex crimes related to the arranged marriage of a 14-year-old girl and an older cousin. The jury of five men and three women deliberated for roughly two hours and will return Monday to southern Utah's 5th District Court. Warren Jeffs, 51, president of the Fundamentalist Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints, is charged with two counts of rape as an accomplice. Prosecutors claim he used his authority to demand the teen bride enter a ceremonial marriage in 2001 and have sex with her cousin, who was 19.
