HILDALE, Utah—
More people may soon be kicked out of Warren Jeffs’ polygamous church.

The imprisoned polygamist leader has reportedly set a new deadline to purge more people he has declared to be “unfaithful” from the Fundamentalist LDS Church, according to non-profit groups who work with those inside the closed societies.

“There was a proclamation made last week asking that any non-believing parties need to be removed from the community by February 29,” said Nicole Nystrom with the group Holding Out Help. “I don’t know what the magic number is about February 29, but I assume it’s just the end of the month and they’re trying to clean out.”
