Briell told RadarOnline.com that she and other children living in the sect "had to suffer  for 18 years." She explained that one of Jeffs' most notorious rules originated as he was on the run from the law: He ordered that families had to be split up.

Jeffs was convicted of child rape in 2011 and was sentenced to life behind bars. Decker told RadarOnline.com that when she met him, "He was creepy and I didn't think he thought the same way I did. So I learned to decode what he said and used it against him. I used his scripture quotes to save myself."

Decker told RadarOnline.com that her ultimate goal is to go to Texas and work with prison officials who are housing Jeffs. "I want to hear what he is saying to the people that visit him," she said. "He uses a completely different vocabulary and I know what his words are and what he is really saying. I could stop him from hurting anyone else if they would let me."
