I think it was nice to see the story wrapped up and see an end to the pursuit. Detective Pyre weather's his conviction and recognizes there is something more than his faith--recognizing what's in front of him and holding on to it. It's overall a beautiful story. I feel, though, that interesting problems of the story get hand-waved away for the sake of it.

I wonder about his wife's feelings and where her 180 came from. Will they still have to answer to the church after all of this? And what of Allen? He was concluded off-screen to have a similar-themed conclusion about family.

Maybe in it being a mini-series they didn't have the time to address some things or maybe the book that it's based off of, or the real case, doesn't have satisfying answers to those, either.

Either way I really liked the series and I thought it's telling was beautiful, even if I feel I wanted a little more.

...claptrap of cloying bs was really getting to me.

I just kept thinking about all those brainwashed women and children and men... Brainwashwd into a multi billion dollar business.

The men can't hack it and so try to suppress women just so they can function and feel like men.

Women who are brainwashed into it, so they can't realize their own strength, value, and worth.

And little girls groomed to be bed partners of salacious, disgusting old men.

It annoyed me that the younger Pyre was giving orders to the older partner, on land that belonged to his people and Pyre annoyed me for putting his adult brain aside and indoctrinating his children in this cult.

But it's a capitalist business, is religion, and all religions are going to keep recruiting, keep brainwashing the gullible, the vulnerable, the young, the naive, and the desperate.

The Ron character was completely unable to function without his mommy telling him he was wonderful and his wife propping him up so he'd feel like a man.

But what to expect? Daddy couldn't function without abusing females, animals, brutalizing small children, and browbeating his wife for community approval.

A bunch of weak men that needed to be told constantly that they were the best because they had penises and white skin and all of them knew it wasn't true at all... Giving men a false sense of what they know deep inside they aren't, without a woman constantly telling them they are.

So sad... This series didn't go out with a bang. For me, the two previous episodes had more bang for the buck.

The true story was so sad because two worthless, abused, POS couldn't hack it in real life so they killed a woman and a little baby and used religion as an excuse.

May they rot in the hell they believed in.

No, i'm not Mormon. I looked forward to this final episode. The detectives were hunting killers. Did they stop in the desert to ruminate on Mormonism vs ancient Native American spiritualism? Ridiculous. Plus! The Lafferty brothers were arrested at a casino buffet, not one tryingto kill the other! Too much artistic and religious license by the writers/director.
