UNIDENTIFIED MALE: We live in such a wicked day. The people on this land of America are an adulterous generation. We do not want to be like them. The prophets have declared, I would rather have my sons or daughters in the grave than commit sins of immorality. (END VIDEO CLIP)

(COMMERCIAL BREAK)

KING: Joining us now in Phoenix, (r)MD+IN(r)MDNMArizona is John W. Lewis, FBI special agent in charge. The Phoenix office initiated a fugitive investigation of Warren Jeffs in June of last year. And in Las Vegas is Steve Martinez, special agent in charge FBI in Las Vegas. He spoke at a press conference today in Salt Lake. Steve, how did this come about?

STEVE MARTINEZ, FBI AGENT IN CHARGE, LAS VEGAS: Well, the Nevada highway patrol did a routine traffic stop last night at about 9:00, had a Cadillac Escalade that had a temporary tag that just didn't look right. The trooper, Mr. Dutchover pulled over the vehicle and basically did his job and did it very, very well. KING: What were they suspicious of, Steve?

MARTINEZ: Well I think initially it was a traffic stop based on the fact that the temporary tag on the car just wasn't completely visible, at least that's my understanding. And this is something that the highway patrol does routinely as they patrol the highways here in Nevada. KING: Now, when the FBI -- when the state called the FBI, you got there right away. Were you one of the people that came over?

MARTINEZ: No, I wasn't. Two members of our violent crime and major offenders squad, two special agents, responded immediately when they were called by the Nevada highway patrol, and they were able to confirm that this was indeed Mr. Jeffs. KING: And he surrendered easily?

MARTINEZ: Yes, he did. It went without incident, and we're very, very pleased that that was the case. We certainly didn't want any violence, and it was without incident. KING: John W. Lewis, how did the Phoenix office get involved?

JOHN W. LEWIS, FBI AGENT IN CHARGE, PHOENIX: Larry, shortly after Mojave County filed their warrants, we became involved, interacting with them. It was last year, mid '05, about June '05 when we after discussing with them decided to go forward with unlawful flight to avoid prosecution warrant. Essentially that's a tool that allows the FBI throughout the nation to join with a local law enforcement agency and use our resource to search for a fugitive. KING: You said today that they…
