On the YouTube episode, the host explained how Kody was expected to be a character witness for Kyle. “A few years ago, the reality show had an episode where they had Kody Brown and his wives, plus some people from polygamy groups in Las Vegas,” she explained.

She continued that one of her relatives was there to discuss abuse she had been through in her polygamist marriage. “They just kind of mocked her,” Doris said. “’Well we don’t do that. There is no abuse in polygamy.’ They actually condemned the abuse. And Kody Brown is going to be a character witness for your abuser? That’s what bothers me! The hypocrisy.”

In December 2018, Mitchell entered a plea in abeyance on two counts. He was sentenced to what is essentially probation, The Salt Lake Tribune reported. Both counts will be dismissed if he pays a $400 fee and refrains from getting into legal trouble. A jury acquitted two counts of extortion and bribery.
