LeBaron group
The LeBaron group is a grouping of related fundamentalist Mormon sects and individuals whose parent sect was originally founded in Colonia LeBaron, Chihuahua, Mexico. As of 2005, Colonia LeBaron contained over 280 adherents of this religious grouping in addition to additional members elsewhere.
==History==
The group had been founded as a community by Alma Dayer LeBaron, Sr. and members of his large family in about 1924. LeBaron was a member of a fundamentalist Mormon group who, refusing to abandon plural marriage, by the mid-1930s had separated from The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS Church). Originally, the LeBarons had been among a number of LDS families who, at the turn of the twentieth century, had emigrated from the United States to Mexico to escape persecution in the U.S. owing to their refusal to abandon the practice of plural marriage. Joel LeBaron organized the so-called LeBaron group as the Church of the Firstborn of the Fullness of Times in 1956. Thereafter, the church split between brothers Joel and Ervil LeBaron; eventually, Ervil ordered the murder of his brother Joel and other Mormon fundamentalists, for which he was convicted in both Mexico and the United States.
In 2009, the LeBaron colony in Mexico and received national attention in Mexico within the context of war against drug trafficking in Mexico, especially in the northwestern region of the state of Chihuahua. On May 2, Erick Le Baron, 17, was kidnapped for an attempted ransom amount of US$1 million. However, the spokesman of the entire LeBaron community had previously announced its decision not pay any ransom but instead to seek the release of the young man, who was finally freed by his captors on May 10 without there having been made a ransom payment. Throughout this event, the community spoke out publicly, both in the state capital, Chihuahua, and national and international media against the growing insecurity experienced in the region and maintained its intention to continue a policy of refusal to pay ransoms in cases of possible kidnappings.
On July 6, 2009, Erick's brother, Benjamin, and another community member, Luis Widmar Stubbs, were kidnapped and very soon thereafter were murdered on the streets of Colonia LeBaron by a group of armed assailants, who left a written message with the victims' bodies message which stated that this crime was in retaliation for Benjamin's activism against the traffickers.
