Warren Jeffs waits for the jury to reconvene for deliberation in his trial in St. George, Utah September 24, 2007. Attorneys for polygamist leader Jeffs, on trial as an accomplice to rape, said on September 21 "religion was on trial" and the state had overstepped its bounds in bringing the case. Jeffs, 51, is the self-described "prophet" of the Fundamental Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints, or FLDS, a breakaway sect from the early Mormon church that still practices polygamy. Jeffs is on trial on two counts of being an accomplice to rape, a charge he denies. REUTERS/Douglas C. Pizac/Pool (UNITED STATES)
