This will help a lot of women trapped in illegal polygamous marriages to seek legal aid in cases of abuse.
 
Will this make Utah a safe haven for Muslim polygamy?

It’s more taking it off the books.

It must be at least close to a full century since anyone was actually prosecuted for this.

When you do see prosecutions, they are inevitably for welfare fraud, not the polygamy itself (divorcing the one to which he is legally married and marrying another to maximize benefits).
