ook this up and did some reading. It's crazier than our kind of crazy...and that's saying somethin'.
The Mormons were uber-crazy and topped it all by murdering a wagon train of Arkansas pioneers on their way to California 19 years after the Hauns Mill incident in Missouri.
120 men women and children were murdered. Some say it was retribution for the death of a mormon polygamist prophet named Parley Pratt who seduced a married woman into becoming his 12th wife. Unfortunately for him the husband (Hector Mclean) caught up with him and killed him in Western Arkansas. This happened a few months before the "Massacre at Mountain Meadows" .
Mormons be crazy too

These efforts have continued down through the present day. When bones of the victims were unexpectedly uncovered in 1999, then-governer of Utah Mike Leavitt directed state officials to find administrative or other means to make sure that they were reburied as quickly as possible and before they could be studied. Leavitt is himself a direct descendant of one of the Mormon killers who participated in the slaughter at Mountain Meadows.
I remember when this happened back in 1999. That's really low.
