"MOTHER GOD" OF LOVE HAS WON Mummified remains of cult leader found in group's home By Noelle Phillips The Denver Post A woman who led a con- troversial Colorado reli- gious group is dead and sev- en of her followers are un- der investigation after Saguache County sheriff's deputies found the leader's mummified body in a sleep- ing bag and wrapped in Christmas lights inside a home in Moffat. Deputies discovered the body on Wednesday inside a home where followers of Love Has Won lived, accord- ing to court records. Investi- gators believe Amy Carl- son's followers had driven her body to Colorado from California, according to a Saguache County Sheriff's Office arrest affidavit. A follower told deputies the body belonged to Lia Carlson, and a Saguache County sheriff's corporal wrote in the affidavit that, "Ms. Carlson is believed to be the leader of 'Love Has Won" and goes by the name 'Mother God." It's not known why the follower gave the name "Lia" to depu- ties. Saguache County Coroner Tom Perrin confirmed he had received a body in con- nection with the investiga- tion of the Love Has Won group but said he had not yet confirmed the identity. Perrin said the body be- longed to a middle-aged woman and it appeared she had been dead for awhile. "Must be a couple of weeks or more," he said. A follower posted a video message on Love Has Won's Facebook page on Sunday to say that Amy Carlson "has ascended."
