• Raymond Merril Jessop, 36, indicted on a sexual assault charge.

• Michael Emack, 57, on a charge of sexual assault.

• Dr. Lloyd Hammon Barlow, 38, the FLDS community's physician, on misdemeanor charges of failure to report child abuse.

The sexual assault charges, all first-degree felonies, involve minors.

A court hearing for Barlow has not been scheduled. Jeffs, who is currently in an Arizona jail awaiting trial on sexual misconduct charges there, is getting notice of the hearing. Texas authorities have said they would seek to extradite him to face charges here.

As the young women waited to testify today, they killed time by whipping out digital cameras and taking pictures of everything around them: Texas Rangers, their lawyers and news reporters, joking with a Deseret News photographer about who would have the best pictures.
