That's Warren Jeffs, and yes, to put him on the ten most wanted list was a bit on the extreme side.
Doesn't make me too comfortable, actually.
Were these crimes the reason he was on the list?

Reason: spelling
However, on CNN, I heard that the mothers COULD have stayed with their children, had they gone to the shelter/safe house with them. From what I understood the mothers decided to go back to the compound WITHOUT their children.

Actually, they wanted the women to go to a separate women's shelter (without their children), so the women chose to go home instead. (They were allowed to choose home or the shelter.)
"A group of women from a polygamist sect's Texas ranch returned to the compound Monday after authorities separated them from the 400-plus children now in state custody...mothers of children 5 and older were told they could not remain with the children but could go back to the ranch or to a women's shelter."www.cnn.com

He was wanted in connection with marrying off young girls to older men. Not sure how many counts he has against him.
Okay I will look it up under the public records in Texas.
