Revenues for 2007 were just over $1 billion, but are expected to climb this year...

...Latter Day Saints (FLDS), directed his flock and arranged "celestial marriages" (no man with fewer than three wives can attain the Kingdom of God, the FLDS believes) as a fugitive from the law. But he was arrested in 2006 in Las Vegas and convicted last year in St. George, Utah--not on polygamy charges, which have been difficult to prosecute in court, but on charges of being an accomplice to rape after commanding an underage follower to marry an older man against her wishes. The Eldorado prosecution follows from that case: a fresh allegation concerning an underage, unwilling bride pushed...
