Samuel Bateman, who represented himself in his state child abuse trial, presented closing arguments last week. Bateman, the self-proclaimed prophet, was convicted Friday on child abuse charges after girls were found in an unventilated trailer he was hauling through Arizona. Bateman, who was convicted in 2024 on federal charges involving the transportation of a minor for sexual activity, is already serving a 50 year prison sentence.
