Jeffs appeal rejected

Another legal defeat for FLDS leader Warren Jeffs. On Wednesday, the Texas Court of Criminal Appeals turned down Jeffs' appeal of his sexual assault conviction. Representing himself, Jeffs is serving a sentence of life plus 20 years in Palestine for sexually assaulting a 12-year-old girl and a 15-year-old girl. Next up for Jeffs is a pre-trial hearing in San Angelo Monday morning on a charge of first-degree felony bigamy.
