The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (the "Mormon" church) does not and has never had a secret police. They are a religion, not a government, and therefore cannot operate a police force.

I encountered them today at the Lion House, which is where Brigham Young lived in Utah while he was president of the church and Governor of the Utah Territory. These guys are dressed immaculately, hair freshly groomed, and they don't usually look like your typical mormons -- although they're very nice, unless provoked.

I don't know much about them, but I'd like to know more. I do, however, know that they exist. I have been confronted by them several times.

There is no record of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (the "Mormon" church) having any sort of 'secret police'. There is a legend about a group called the "Destroying Angels" which did the 'dirty work' of Mormon Church leaders in the Old West, but there is no actual record of this group exisiting and Church leaders both then and now have denied that there was such a group. The legend says that these men lived in the mountains and would kill those who attempted to leave or who disobeyed the prophet.
