John R. Llewellyn is a retired Salt Lake County, Utah, sheriff's lieutenant who extensively investigated Mormon Fundamentalist polygamy cults.

A former polygamist, he wrote Polygamy Under Attack: From Tom Green to Brian David Mitchell (Agreka Books, 2004), A Teenager's Tears: When Parents Convert To Polygamy (Agreka, 2001), and Murder of a Prophet: The Dark Side of Utah Polygamy (Agreka, 2000).

Llewellyn is now a monogamist and muckraker, and he was lead investigator in two major lawsuits against Mormon Fundamentalist polygamist cults. Read his article about the Elizabeth Smart case. He says truly religious polygamists treat their wives with respect and dignity, but corruption is widespread in Utah's Mormon Fundamentalist polygamist groups.
