Warren Jeffs, the polygamist sect leader, was released Wednesday from a Nevada hospital. He stayed there for a day. According to The Associated Press, the leader of the Fundamentalist Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints was hospitalized Tuesday because he was weakened and “convulsive,” but he returned to jail the next day.

Police Officer Jose Montoya said that he didn’t know if Warren Jeffs had been taken to another prison or to the same facility in Arizona.

“He is no longer in the hospital, but I wouldn't be able to tell you if he got transferred to another facility or back to Arizona,” said Jose Montoya, according to Deseret News.

A sheriff’s spokeswoman said that, Tuesday, the polygamist sect leader was in a “weakened state of health, acting in a convulsive manner, shaking, and running a fever” and was first taken to Kingman Regional Medical Center. Afterwards, he was transported to Sunrise Hospital and Medical Center in Las Vegas.

Although the doctors didn’t say what his diagnosis was, Trish Carter, sheriff's spokeswoman, said that Jeffs was not in any danger. The Police Department released a statement, saying that Warren Jeffs had guards to watch him while he was being treated for an unknown medical condition.

The polygamist sect leader was convicted last year on two counts of first-degree felony rape. He was convicted in November, being sentenced to two consecutive terms of five years to life in Utah. He allegedly tried to kill himself while he was waiting for his sentence. He also refused food and water for a whole month and he hurt his knees because he used to kneel in prayer for hours.

Warren Jeffs was treated in a Utah prison infirmary in February 2007 because he had some health problems caused by the lack of food.
