Was plural marriage actually adultery before 12 July 1843?

Summary: Does Lorenzo Snow's testimony show that anyone who practiced plural marriage before the date that D&C 132 was written (12 July 1843) was guilty of adultery? Since Joseph had entered into plural marriages before that date, was Lorenzo essentially admitting that Joseph was an adulterer?

William Marks claimed Joseph intended to abandon plural marriage

Summary: William Marks would later claim that Joseph intended to abandon plural marriage, but was killed before he was able to do so. There is scant evidence to support this claim.
