PHOENIX — Polygamist sect leader Warren Jeffs is now in the custody of Arizona authorities to face charges in the marriages of two teenage girls to older men.
Authorities said Tuesday that deputies from the Mohave County Sheriff's Office have taken custody of him from Utah officials.
He's scheduled to make an appearance in court on Wednesday, 2 1/2 years after prosecutors in the northwestern Arizona county filed charges against him and he went into hiding.
