when things in this case started to open up. 00:42:49.275 --> 00:42:52.653 align:center I was able to talk to my daughters in foster care. 00:42:53.195 --> 00:42:54.405 align:center Hi! 00:42:55.155 --> 00:42:56.824 align:center When they were separated, 00:42:57.408 --> 00:42:59.451 align:center they started to have a better understanding 00:42:59.535 --> 00:43:01.704 align:center about certain things that happened. 00:43:02.705 --> 00:43:04.957 align:center And I had to say to my girls, 00:43:05.040 --> 00:43:08.252 align:center "Could you have said no, or, 'I don't want to do this,' 00:43:09.253 --> 00:43:11.505 align:center without being punished in some way?" 00:43:12.381 --> 00:43:14.717 align:center And they all had to say, "Uh, no." 00:43:15.884 --> 00:43:22.016 align:center We talked, like, over and over about… …coming forth with the truth. 00:43:22.099 --> 00:43:24.310 align:center The truth is really the best. 00:43:24.393 --> 00:43:26.770 align:center It was one of Julia's underage girls 00:43:26.854 --> 00:43:28.814 align:center who came forward first. 00:43:32.109 --> 00:43:35.988 align:center She finally admitted that having sex with Sam did occur. 00:43:37.865 --> 00:43:41.952 align:center And she then talked to some of the other girls that had been with Sam. 00:43:42.036 --> 00:43:44.955 align:center And a few more of them started to come forward. 00:43:46.624 --> 00:43:51.545 align:center They provided the full scope of what was happening on a daily basis. 00:43:53.213 --> 00:43:56.800 align:center At a certain point, Sam Bateman was canceling all the religious classes 00:43:56.884 --> 00:43:58.302 align:center and at-home schooling 00:43:58.385 --> 00:44:02.222 align:center so that he could have sex with all of the girls, all of the time. 00:44:02.973 --> 00:44:04.516 align:center In addition to Sam, 00:44:04.600 --> 00:44:08.145 align:center we got verification from minor victims 00:44:08.228 --> 00:44:12.316 align:center against Sam's adult followers that he had wrapped up into this scheme. 00:44:12.399 --> 00:44:14.818 align:center So we arrested Torrance and Ladell 00:44:15.402 --> 00:44:18.238 align:center and five adult wives of Sam. 00:44:18.322 --> 00:44:20.699 align:center And we finally got information that we needed 00:44:20.783 --> 00:44:24.203 align:center for child sexual abuse charges against Sam Bateman. 00:44:25.496 --> 00:44:26.705 align:center It… It was big. 00:44:30.459 --> 00:44:33.921 align:center Tonight, a polygamist leader based in Colorado City, Arizona 00:44:34.004 --> 00:44:37.424 align:center is facing serious charges of sexual conduct involving children. 00:44:38.008 --> 00:44:40.010 align:center Newly unsealed court documents today 00:44:40.094 --> 00:44:43.555 align:center show a grand jury indicted him on additional charges. 00:44:44.181 --> 00:44:47.059 align:center The allegations are beyond disturbing. 00:45:07.121 --> 00:45:10.958 align:center The US Attorney's Office said it was the largest prosecution of the kind 00:45:11.041 --> 00:45:13.293 align:center in the state that they could recall. 00:45:13.377 --> 00:45:14.753 align:center In my entire career, 00:45:14.837 --> 00:45:18.549 align:center I have never worked as hard as I had to work for this case. 00:45:18.632 --> 00:45:21.468 align:center It being my last case, it… 00:45:25.180 --> 00:45:27.599 align:center it validated my entire career. 00:45:34.231 --> 00:45:35.607 align:center Samuel Bateman, 00:45:35.691 --> 00:45:37.901 align:center the polygamist self-proclaimed prophet, 00:45:37.985 --> 00:45:40.654 align:center has now been sentenced to 50 years in prison, 00:45:40.738 --> 00:45:43.198 align:center the maximum sentence for that plea deal. 00:45:43.782 --> 00:45:47.494 align:center FBI investigators state much of their information came from a couple 00:45:47.578 --> 00:45:50.122 align:center who had been filming a documentary with Bateman, 00:45:50.205 --> 00:45:54.501 align:center earning his trust to interview his wives and document their testimonies. 00:45:56.170 --> 00:45:57.880 align:center My false prophet 00:45:58.714 --> 00:46:01.675 align:center was never held accountable for what he did to me. 00:46:02.593 --> 00:46:03.510 align:center Oh. 00:46:06.221 --> 00:46:08.098 align:center So, with these young ladies, 00:46:08.182 --> 00:46:11.435 align:center I was driven to make sure 00:46:11.518 --> 00:46:13.770 align:center that it would be different for them. 00:46:22.404 --> 00:46:24.823 align:center I was incarcerated for 21 months. 00:46:27.075 --> 00:46:29.495 align:center When I first got out of prison, 00:46:30.454 --> 00:46:31.497 align:center I was free 00:46:32.206 --> 00:46:34.166 align:center for the first time in my life. 00:46:37.211 --> 00:46:38.545 align:center Thanks. 00:46:38.629 --> 00:46:39.838 align:center Sure. 00:46:40.506 --> 00:46:41.924 align:center It's taken time, 00:46:42.549 --> 00:46:45.886 align:center but I feel like I was, like, reborn. 00:46:47.387 --> 00:46:50.557 align:center Like, every other week, I have a new obsession, 00:46:50.641 --> 00:46:52.684 align:center a new thing I'm learning… 00:46:53.268 --> 00:46:57.397 align:center …that I had never seen or, like, never even experienced before. 00:46:59.775 --> 00:47:02.486 align:center There's just so much that

00:47:20.837 align:center I want to understand what happened to me. 00:47:22.673 --> 00:47:26.134 align:center Did you ever ask yourself, how did we do these things that 00:47:26.218 --> 00:47:27.928 align:center are not even in our value system? 00:47:28.637 --> 00:47:32.015 align:center I'm learning that I'm not alone. 00:47:32.099 --> 00:47:35.769 align:center It takes bravery to stand out and walk on your own. 00:47:37.229 --> 00:47:38.856 align:center With Christine, 00:47:38.939 --> 00:47:41.650 align:center I didn't realize how similar our lives were. 00:47:44.111 --> 00:47:46.947
