The False Prophet: Conspiracy, Extortion and Murder in the Name of God

The laws of neither man nor God would stop him…
Raised as a devout Mormon, Taylor Helzer was known as a dynamic, strong-willed young man whose dedication to his religion and his fellow man was a shining example to all. But that inspirational devotion soon became twisted.
Saying he had been chosen to usher in the second coming of Jesus Christ, Taylor cast aside the church and set out to finance his own apocalyptic cult by any means. The ex-communicated Mormon used drugs, kidnapping, extortion, and murder to further his twisted goals. Finally, his own excesses and depravity opened the door for the police to take the self-proclaimed prophet down and provide a measure of justice for his victims.
Based on extensive interviews and in-depth reporting by the only journalist to cover the case from start to finish, this is the true account of one man’s reign of unholy terror and the fanatical followers who did his bidding as if it were the word of God.
