Where Is Warren Jeffs Now? ‘Keep Sweet’ Viewers Want Answers
Netflix’s documentary Keep Sweet: Pray and Obey earned a lot of views in just a short amount of time. Subscribers were completely captivated and swept away learning about the darkness that exists within certain polygamist sects of Mormonism. And no group was as sinister as the cult Warren Jeffs led.
In the documentary, the show reveals that authorities captured Jeffs. He is in prison to this day. But what goes on in the daily life of the cult leader?

Warren Jeffs is still behind bars but isn’t having much fun there
Since Keep Sweet proved to be so popular with Netflix subscribers, TMZ did a little digging to see what they could find about Warren Jeffs’ whereabouts today.
And it doesn’t appear that the 66-year-old is having a great time behind bars.
Jeffs was used to quite a bit of contact and control of other people, so this is definitely a big change for him. Hopefully, he never manages to make it back to the outside. According to the Texas Department of Criminal Justice‘s website, Jeffs is serving a life sentence for his crimes.
Keep Sweet documents the cult leader’s rise and fall
Keep Sweet: Pray and Obey follows a sect of Mormonism that never stopped practicing plural marriage — the FLDS. The mainstream branch of the Mormon church opted to practice monogamy, but many Mormons believed that polygamy was an important part of the faith. Many still practice polygamy to this day.
And sadly, things really started spiraling out of control when Warren Jeffs took over as the “Prophet.”
Under Jeffs’ control, young girls were treated like livestock and traded among older men. If a man disobeyed the Prophet, Jeffs would take his wives and children and assign them to another man. Jeffs quite literally tore families apart and scared people into submission.
