ReviewsSam Brower is one of a few individuals not born into the FLDS who possesses a comprehensive knowledge of its inside workings. It is because of individuals like Sam that former FLDS members and I have the hope of the criminal activities being publicly exposed, thereby allowing future FLDS generations to one day claim the protection of freedom.
