Edit ProfileCareer
After many years as a vagabond in Middle and Southwest America, Jessop finally sought legal justice, and was awarded $10,000 in a lawsuit against the State Of Arizona for failing to protect her from the abuse she suffered. She helped, in a large part, to create the Child Protection Project. She founded an organization, "Help the Child Brides" (later dissolved) and later joined "Child Protection Project" with fellow activist Linda Walker.
Jessop is the author of a book, Church of Lies, telling her personal story.
She says (in the book), that her goal is not only end child abuse in polygamous cults, but to give a name to all child abuse victims in the United States.
