If Warren Jeffs were ever to be released from prison would he become a prophet again for the FLDS? I remember once seeing a news report about him 'resigning' from prison, but was it official?

Warren Jeffs Beliefs Religious General

He resigned as President but I don't think as a Prophet. As far as I know, they still see him as a Prophet.
