Anti-Mormonism in Hancock County, Illinois, which culminated in the jail murders of Joseph Smith and his brother Hyrum Smith led to 'the temporary supremacy of the mob'; state authority lost all credibility with the anti-Mormons and the Mormons; state agents were unable to control the situation; the anti-Mormons' power waxed; and state agents began to accept the anti-Mormons' version of events.
