until 1950 (exact ?) when a book (1st Ed.) Mountain Meadows Massacre was published ... written by one Juanita Leone Leavitt Pulsipher Brooks <1/15/1898 - 8/26/1989> (she was widowed & re-married) the MMM was effectively covered-up by TSCC.
Since then, a flood of research / books has told the story, with remarkably few contradictions.
Brooks lived & taught in Southern Utah close to where the MMM happened, she was shunned by her LDS friends for her efforts.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Juanita_Brookswhen I heard of her death (on NPR), that piqued my interest in the MMM; I cried like a baby when I understood what happened.
I soon wrote tscc telling them that they should re-name BYU after her; BY Lied, JB TOLD THE TRUTH.
note: her research / book was sponsored - financed somewhat by relatives of John Doyle Lee, who was scape-goated by LDS, Inc.
Long may her memory live in the hearts & minds of people who Love the Truth.
