Jeffs. The series premiered on January 30, 2023 and was directed by Pat McGee. It centers on Jeff's 65th polygamous wife, Briell Decker, examining her experiences during and after Jeff's imprisonment. The program also documents how the Short Creek community changed, particularly Decker's conversion of Jeff's old compound into a sanctuary for people leaving the faith.
