The court heard the girl was then married to Warren Jeffs, the former leader of the Fundamentalist Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints.
James Oler was also facing charges but he was found not guilty in this case.
Crown lawyers say in 2004 the three took young girls from Bountiful B.C. to the U.S. to be placed in plural marriages.
More to come.
