At 6:30 pm on June 10, 1844, the mayor and city council of Nauvoo ended their deliberations and decided that the the paper's printing presses were a public nuisance and should be destroyed without delay. After the town council meeting dismissed [link widoczny dla zalogowanych], the results were taken to the Mormon prophet who gave the orders for the destruction of the Expositor's property. Nearly an hour and a half later [link widoczny dla zalogowanych], the order would be carried out by the city marshal and all known copies of the Nauvoo Expositor would be destroyed. (Copies of the Expositor have survived and the text is available online.)

Why the Nauvoo Expositor Was Printed
“American Prophet: The Martyrdom.” PBS.org
The publishers of the Expositor were disaffected Mormons who felt that Smith had become a fallen prophet. The practice of plural marriage had been started by Smith prior to the printing of the Nauvoo Expositor, and the first edition of the paper exposed the polygamous relationships of the Mormon prophet. Current leaders of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints have called the copies of the Nauvoo Expositor laughableand have criticized the newspaper for its poor grammar and turgid phrasing. The Nauvoo Expositor read like many other examples of yellow journalism from the 19th century [link widoczny dla zalogowanych], but the single edition of the newspaper caused further resentment against the Mormons.

The Mormons had already been pushed westward several times and an extermination order had expelled the early church's members from Missouri. Similar rhetoric would appear in Illinois after Joseph and Hyrum Smith were exonerated of the initial charges. Under the orders of the Illinois Governor, he would head to the jail in Carthage where Joseph Smith would become a martyr to the religion that he founded.
Joseph Smith is remembered as a martyr by members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. Most Mormons do not know the crime Joseph Smith stood accused of when he was assassinated. The last days of the Mormon prophet's life were spent in the Carthage Jail for the destruction of the printing presses of the Nauvoo Expositor.
Only one edition of the Nauvoo Expositor made it to press. The printing presses of the paper were destroyed by the Mormon militia who acted on orders given by Joseph Smith. Such a severe breech of first amendment rights and destruction of property required Smith to stand trial for the act. A Mormon tribunal trying the prophet for the crime would release Smith and his brother on a writ of habeas corpus and they would be exonerated of the charges before a non-Mormon judge. Public outcry over the outcome of the first trial caused the governor of Illinois to order that Joseph and Hyrum Smith stand trial a second time.
The fist and only edition of the Nauvoo Expositor appeared on the streets of the Illinois city on June 7, 1844. Many of the stories in the Expositor were true, but the attack on the prophet caused an uproar in the largely Mormon town. The town council took three days to decide the appropriate course of action against the perceived threat of the new newspaper.
