Why We Infiltrated & TOOK DOWN FLDS Polygamous Cult Leader (My Story) [57:22-62:24]

That's what he's talking about. If you remember that little thing. So the, what? So that's one thing. I was told that there was a lot more footage of me expressing my frustrations. I'm not sure what that meant, but I was always crying and pacing the floor. And they said they had to take some of that out because it was just too frustrating to the viewer. I'm okay with that. And then there were some happy scenes that I got make me get at the end. Like, Nomes and I, Nomes taught me how to line dance. Oh my gosh. We were line dancing to Footloose and I was just so bad, but it was so cute that she knew it. She was teaching me that was, I thought that might be a cute ending or, you know, there was a, and there was another funny ending them. So I'm going to kind of argue, we cut and do these funny arguments all the time. And that was up on the reservoir that we could see the whole town. And I thought that might make it in because it made people laugh, but it's okay. You know, when I look at the response, I have to say that that the director and she have two other directors that helped her. The directors knew what they were doing because my goals, before we entrusted the project to them, they knew that my goals were number one to humanize the FLDS so it doesn't cause them any more trauma. They have enough trauma and suffering in their life. I just didn't want the public to retargeting them for some of the terrible things that happened in the world. So that was one thing. Another thing was to ensure that the people who believed in Sam are not victim-shamed, but seen with empathy. And that was accomplished, both of those things were accomplished in spades. And I get, I have an outpouring of support through DMs and emails, you know, just so many. And there are themes in there and the themes match my hopes, you know, that there's one other message I was hoping people would get out of this series, which was if you treat people with kindness, it's a lot more effective than attacking them. Yeah, I hear that a lot from all the responses. So maybe as a society, we can start thinking about this. You know, the other thing I do besides cohort is I help survivors of public humiliation. You know, people that have been like unfairly canceled and their entire lives destroyed. It's so hard to recover from. And I, these people often want to leave this earth because every the whole world hates them, they think. So I sort of have an informal hotline for people who've gone through public shaming. And I just didn't want any shaming of people that they didn't. The men were exposed for what they did. But it was really toned down. It was victim sensitive to a T. You, especially if you know what could have been in there. So I was very proud of the team, you know, the story editor, the main editors, the producers, and Netflix themselves. Yeah. Incredibly supportive. Are you able to talk about how Julia's doing? She was such a force and brave and courageous and coming forward and helping with the investigation. And I'm wondering if she's still a FLES or if she was able to get her minor daughters back or how she's doing now. You got her minor daughters back. Yes, she did. She's doing great. She lives independently. You know, makes her own money, got her own house. You know, she's doing the girl power thing. And she has a relationship with all of her rules again. And she's, you know, wherever she is on her religious journey is that's her thing. Not, you know, I can't really comment on that. But I know that she does question things and she does think for herself. And I'm really incredibly proud of her. I think she is the real hero of this story hands down and that she should get awards.
