Documents cited in deposition
During Merril Jessop's deposition last week, Natalie Malonis introduced as exhibits a number of documents that I don't recall hearing about in previous court sessions or filings:

A budget estimate for the Short Creek Stake
A trust document for a property trust in Texas
A 1996 statement from Sam Barlow
A transcript of a March 23, 2008, lesson given by Warren Jeffs to family and friends during a visit at the Mohave County Jail, just days before the raid.

Where did they come from? Is the trust document a public document? A search begins tomorrow.

What's in all these documents? And will there be an effort to seal them before we can get a peek?

There are a number of interesting questions here, particularly regarding the Arizona jailhouse transcript of a conversation that occurred days before the raid in Texas. Did it have any bearing on events?

Well Brooke

Sounds like the Trib needs to pay the court reporter for a copy of the deposition - it will have all those exhibits attached.
