Jeffrey Lundgren is one of the most popular and richest Celebrity who was born on May 3, 1950 in Missouri Pacific Depot, United States.

Jeffrey Don Lundgren (May 3, 1950 – October 24, 2006) was an American self-proclaimed prophet and mass murderer who, on April 17, 1989, killed five people in Kirtland, Ohio. Lundgren led a Book of Mormon based cult that chiastic method of scripture interpretation, which involves searching text for recurring patterns in Kirtland where he and several of his followers murdered the Avery family, fellow members of his cult, for which he was convicted and sentenced to death. Lundgren was executed in 2006.

Lundgren enrolled at Central Missouri State University and spent time at a house that was specially built for RLDS youth. While at the house, he became friends with Alice Keeler and Keith Johnson. Keeler, who had also been abused by her father, quickly bonded with Lundgren, and the two became lovers. The couple married in 1970 and Lundgren enlisted in the United States Navy, and on December 2, 1970, the couple’s first child, a boy, was born. By 1974, Keeler was pregnant for the second time. Prior to receiving an honorable discharge from the Navy at the end of his first term of duty, Lundgren sought an early release by arguing that his presence was necessary for the sustenance of his family. He was denied an early release for reasons that were non-necessary according to military recommendations. Lundgren received an honorable discharge days before his four-year enlistment was completed. His second son was born soon afterward.

In 1987, Lundgren and his family moved to a rented farm house, located at 8671 Chardon Road on U.S. Route 6, east of Ohio State Route 306. At that time, some followers started to move into his home. Those who moved into the house were Kevin Currie, Richard Brand, Greg Winship, Sharon Bluntschly, Daniel Kraft, and Debbie Olivarez. Ronald and Susan Luff; Dennis and Tonya Patrick; and Dennis and Cheryl Avery maintained their own residences. Some of his followers had known Lundgren in Missouri while others were drawn to Lundgren at the Kirtland Temple. While Lundgren was living at the farm house, he began to practice methods which were consistent with Robert Lifton’s criteria for mind control. For example, cult members were forbidden to talk amongst themselves; doing so was a sin, called “murmuring”. Lundgren would eavesdrop on cult members to cause them to believe that he could read their minds.

Jeffrey Lundgren was born on May 3, 1950, in Independence, Missouri, and grew up as a member of the Reorganized Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints (RLDS Church). According to Lundgren (supported by some of his former neighbors), he was severely abused as a child, particularly by his father. He was, by most accounts, a loner when he was in middle and high school. Lundgren became an expert hunter when he began to spend time with his father as a teenager. The pair would go on hunting trips and Lundgren became a gun expert, learning shooting and maintenance techniques.

While Lundgren was living in a church-owned home in Kirtland, Ohio, he volunteered as a tour guide at the RLDS Church’s historic Kirtland Temple next door. In this capacity, he began to teach the concept of “dividing the word”, known as “chiastic interpretation” or “chiasmus”, to interpret scriptures. Lundgren falsely claimed to have created chiastic interpretation. The foundation was that in everything created by God, the right side is a mirror image and, therefore, scripture had to be interpreted using that same method. Lundgren cited the Kirtland Temple as an example because the right side was a mirror image of the left side. To apply this concept to scripture, one takes a sentence from scripture; if the sentences before and after are consistent, the center sentence is the “truth”; when the sentences before and after conflict, the center sentence is a lie. These teachings of scriptural interpretations by Lundgren attracted followers. He claimed that he moved to Ohio because the word, “OHIO” is “chiastic”. About 1987, Lundgren was asked to leave the Kirtland house, and his job as tour guide was terminated due to suspicions of theft.

In 1987, Lundgren was dismissed as a lay minister by the RLDS Church.

Lundgren and his new family settled in San Diego, California after his discharge, but economic problems began to set in and the Lundgrens moved back to Missouri. In 1979, Keeler gave birth to a third child, a daughter. People close to the couple claim that Lundgren seemed frustrated by the family’s money problems and was generally tired of his wife, and he allegedly became abusive after the birth of his daughter. According to hospital records, his wife was hospitalized for a ruptured spleen, which may have been caused by Lundgren pushing her into a closet door handle. In 1980, the couple had their fourth child, another boy.

On April 23, 1988, a neighbor told Kirtland police officer Ron Andolsek that she suspected that a cult was living at the farm house, and that Lundgren’s son warned the neighbor’s children that the earth would open up and demons would emerge on May 15. On April 28, 1988, a former cult member, referred by the FBI, called Kirtland Police and reported a conspiracy by the cult to take over the Kirtland Temple. Kirtland’s police chief, Dennis T. Yarborough, did not believe the informant’s information and, on May 2, 1988, confronted Lundgren at the Kirtland Police Station. When Lundgren left, he said that he “neutralized the situation” by warning Lundgren that there were complaints about gunfire on Lundgren’s property. Lundgren went back to his followers and called off the temple takeover, planned for May 3, because he had purportedly spoken to a higher power. Kirtland Police initiated surveillance of Lundgren’s residence and of church-owned properties. In September 1988, a second informant came forward. Officer Andolsek cultivated the informant and made contact with the FBI and the ATF. The FBI initiated a domestic terrorism investigation.

On October 10, 1988, the day that Lundgren was excommunicated from the RLDS Church, there was a thunderstorm at the south end of Kirtland. When the sun emerged, a large rainbow appeared to the east. Lundgren told his followers that the rainbow signified the opening of the “Seven Seals”. Lundgren and his family soon abandoned the group, and he began to feel a call to teach the Bible in the way he understood it. He formed his own splinter group soon after, whose membership never exceeded twenty. This group was largely composed of conservative RLDS members who believed that God communicated through regular revelations, although some members admitted that they claimed to have revelations even when they did not. The conservatives were also opposed to more liberal rights for women in the church, which contributed to their decision to join the new sect. Lundgren’s wife Alice told followers that she had once had a revelation that she would meet an important leader of the RLDS Church. She later concluded that this alleged revelation referred to Lundgren.
