At the newest enterprise launched by an embattled polygamous sect you can buy wishing wells in small, medium, large -- and "Texas size."

The wooden wells, intended to be used as yard decorations, are among dozens of handicrafts members of the Fundamentalist Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints are offering on a newly launched Web site.

SALT LAKE CITY -- After decades as teachers, Ruby and Lee Hammel thought they had their retirement years adequately covered.

They have a retirement fund, Social Security and a small sum socked away in two IRA accounts -- and those IRAs are what Ruby Hammel is worried about. They have both lost money over the past six months.

SALT LAKE CITY -- A push for federal help in prosecuting crimes within polygamous communities has the support of a 56 percent of Utahns, a new poll shows.

"Just me? Only me?" she asked her mother before dissolving into tears.

SALT LAKE CITY -- A Texas judge has ordered a 14-year-old girl -- allegedly married at age 12 to a polygamous sect's leader -- back into state custody, but left six other children with their mothers under more stringent Texas oversight.

SALT LAKE CITY -- A month after their children were returned, FLDS parents are getting the first word about parenting classes the state of Texas has required them to complete.

FLDS women for the first time are offering their handmade, distinctive style of children's clothes to the public through the Web site fldsdress.com.

Utah birth certificates may be playing a significant role in an investigation into possible sexual abuse at a polygamous sect's Texas ranch, The Salt Lake Tribune has learned.

SALT LAKE CITY -- For years, a polygamous sect seemed willing to risk everything in a standoff with government over underage marriages: property, prophet, progeny.

Now, a week after a church elder delivered a statement saying the Fundamentalist Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints would no longer sanction such marriages, the question is: Problem solved?

Maybe, maybe not.

SAN ANGELO, Texas -- Hearing her three children cry out for her is the sweetest sound in the world to Lori Jessop.

Seven weeks after being forced apart, Jessop has her family together again -- husband, Joseph S. Jessop Sr., and children Ziana, 4, Joeson, 2, and J.R., 1.

But will it last?
