Lyle Jeffs, head of the notorious polygamist Mormon sect the FLDS, has managed to escape authorities by using olive oil.

He rubbed the oil onto his ankle bracelet and slipped it right off while on pre-trial release.

A car reportedly pulled into the home where Jeffs was staying in Short Creek, Utah when he was picked up and driven away. Authorities still do not know who was in the vehicle or what the license plate number was.

The FBI believes he has at least one accomplice who will provide him with bodyguard protection, and should be considered dangerous.
