==FLDS controversy== According to testimony given in the criminal case, ''Utah v. [[Warren Jeffs]]'', the Hot Springs Motel located in Caliente is the site of several forced marriages between under-aged girls and older men. The hotel was owned and operated by members of the [[Fundamentalist Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints]] (FLDS Church). This was verified in grand jury testimony involving the trial ''Arizona v. Warren Jeffs''. Jeffs was the leader of the polygamous FLDS Church, and before his capture was on the [[FBI Ten Most Wanted Fugitives]] list. The motel was sold to a Las Vegas company in 2004.<ref>{{cite web |title=Motel offered privacy for sect's secretive weddings |url=https://www.reviewjournal.com/news/motel-offered-privacy-for-sects-secretive-weddings/ |publisher=Las Vegas Review-Journal |access-date=9 May 2020 |date=16 September 2007}}</ref><ref>{{cite web |author1=JENNIFER DOBNER |title=Motel room was often site of polygamist rites |url=https://www.seattletimes.com/nation-world/motel-room-was-often-site-of-polygamist-rites/ |publisher=The Seattle Times |access-date=9 May 2020 |date=21 November 2006}}</ref>
