FLDS girl ordered to appear in court on baby's DNA testing
The San Angelo Standard-Times reported Friday that 51st District Judge Barbara Walther ordered the girl, her mother and the newborn child to be present after the girl's court-appointed attorney said she would not appear voluntarily. The newspaper said court papers indicated the girl gave birth to the baby on June 14, shortly after 439 children taken in the raid on the YFZ Ranch were returned to their families under orders from the Texas Supreme Court.
The girl is still under 18, the Standard-Times reported, and CPS is seeking a DNA sample as part of its ongoing investigation into allegations of sexual abuse involving children from the YFZ Ranch.
