FLDS criminal cases building

However, it simply does not guarantee the well-being of the children to have CPS take the children from the mothers, so the children should remain with the mothers, while the fathers should be legally and physically refrained from staying with the families except for 'visitation' type rights.
It was also rough for our Mormon ancestors to end this practice and it took at least one generation. It is imperative in this case of the FLDS and all similar groups that we begin.
I'm not sure if the "egged" is intended as Judge Walther encouraging and prodding CPS in its persecution of the FLDS, or if it's meant as in "we egged the CPS on Halloween night".
Whichever, this is the best example I've seen yet of the "Hanging Judge" displaying gross misconduct and abdication of responsibility in this travesty of justice. She needs, IMHO, to be IMMEDIATELY jerked from the bench, severely reprimanded, and PERMANENTLY DISBARRED from the Texas legal scene.
Enough is enough, and this is too much. I would not condone open violence against this kangaroo court, but the scenario is attractive.
Anyway, if they had followed the rule of law and built a solid case on available evidence, or had at least tried to infiltrate the compound legally, they would have better probability of removing the children from the compound and getting them to a place where they could make their own decision on who and when they marry.
The state also says it gave her a physical exam and and yet has not made any charges.
From the girls pershpective, who has forcibly violated her, Texas of Jeffs?
If the so-called exam had been done focibly by anyone else what would we call that?
No one should have the power to forcibly violate a child.
The video of Warren confessing that he is a false prophet is real.
The pictures of Warren passionately kissing a young girl aren't doctored,
The eyewitnesses aren't lying.
The young girls he has raped personally or has forced into arranged marriages to be raped by his friends are real.
The boys he has kicked out of the community are real.
The families he has destroyed by reassigning them to new fathers are real.
There are many qualities to admire about the devotion that the FLDS have to their faith. Unfortunately, that devotion has been used by an evil, brain-washing, power-hungry, child-abusing pedophile to corrupt, enslave and destroy the lives of the FLDS children and mothers.
You wish!
Have a nice day.

It wouldn't be a bit surprising, therefore, to learn that some of these bloggers are the child abusers who have married these child brides and that their main concern all along was not in getting their children back, but in halting the investigation.
They're scared that the longer Texas keeps digging the more likely it will be that Texas will find evidence that will send these men to prison, just like their good friend, Warren Jeffs.
The child rapists will celebrate and the little girls, who are destined to become their child brides, will continue to be groomed to be their sex slaves.
At least they aren't your daughters, so you can rest peacefully at night.
There is a big demand for very young white children in the adoption racket. This is a potential cash cow for Texas CPS and they aren't about to let go easy.
i can't wait to hear from the FLDS defenders ....
anyone?
thats what i thought
Its also illegal to "ROUND UP" a whole community of children --- release the children
How can any FLDS person justify a 14 y/o girl marrying a 50+ y/o man in an arranged marriage??????
As soon as they are done are they going to bring criminal cases against CPS and the Officers that broke the Law to do this raid as well?
I'm tired of this circus show. The children should go back home.
More and more they're showing their desperation. Deep down they can see that their PR campaign is failing and that they're headed to prison.
It's too bad these abusive old men aren't already in custody, because most of them will be in hiding by the time they're indicted.
I'm not FLDS, I'm a lawyer/scientist and I don't live in Utah...and I'm against child rape and welfare fraud, Kicking young boys out of the community,BLAh blah blah
but, what the texas CPS did is reprehensible...to rip those poor kids away from their loving mothers!!!
Texas is going to pay big time for trampling on the Constitution
If Property Taxes are not paid, the property in question will eventually be sold for back taxes.
If a person qualifies for welfare in Hildale or Colorado City, they must submit to all the forms and regulations that any other person living in any other city in Utah or Arizona.
What's it to you what I do with my money? I really don't care what you do with yours.
Isn't it great to live in America?
The only thing misleading occurring is efforts to cover up what goes on among the FLDS. And, yes, some gullible reporters fall into the trap of repeating FLDS propaganda. But, even as they do that, the wheels of justice are moving inexorably through pounds of evidence that will end the FLDS charade.
I am FLDS, I am not a lawyer/scientist and I do live in Utah...and I'm against child rape and walfare fraud, Kicking young boys out of the community!
Texas CPS is reprehensible...to rip those poor "Children" away from their loving mothers!!!
There is no Constution. "AND YER KIDS ARE NEXT"
Stop complaining about what we do. Please see that you need to secure your own rights under what you call you Constitution.
so much for your self sufficient lifestyle
bleed the beast
