“It’s putting closure to it, finally,” said Alamo’s stepdaughter, Christhiaon Coie of Reseda, who sued Alamo literally over her mother’s dead body and for whom the legal decision represents a symbolic burial of her mother’s and her tortured past.

Tony Alamo Says Its Okay To Marry Children

Since Tony Alamo began practicing polygamy and including young girls as his new brides, he has maintained the same defense on the issue of the right to marry children.
