Comments about ‘Lawyers meet behind closed doors in FLDS case’

Go strait to the appeals court. Don;t pass go don't correct 200 dollars. CPS and Walther are as dishonest as they come.

Good comment made previously about a federal law that says using the color law to deny civil rights is a criminal and should get Judge Walther 464 counts on this law.

How can a Judge, be so flippant as to the status of over 400 children and their families?
I see that she got to go home during the weekend,but
a large number of innocent children were condemed to
legal limbo.
Should she not be removed from office? If she is so careless about such a delicate issue, can she be trusted with other judgements? Seems like she is the
Judge,Jury, and Executioner all in one, and answers to no higher authority, than herself.

Walther didn't set up another hearing; there's no point going to her and begging for one. Go to the appeals court with the proposal.

The judge is punishing the lawyers and the mothers for going to the Appeals court over her head. She is mad and it matters not to her who she hurats.

Abruptly left the bench refusing to sign the order? What kind of judge is this? Contempt of court! contempt of court! Go get her with SWAT team and imprison her until she complies. If its good for the FLDS it's good enough for the judge. This case has shown a high degree of incompetency from beginning until now and is an embarrassment for Texas. Stop dragging your heels Texas. You illegally picked them up, so you get those buses back and send all of those kids home, NOW!

Sorry I spelled the hurts wrong. It matter not to her who she hurts!!

The Supreme Court did NOT allow Walther to impose conditions on vacating her earlier order. They provided her with some helpful hints on what options she has under state code--independent of the mandamus.

These helpful hints were given in response to the complaints of secondary harm made by the CPS in their appeal to the supreme court. The supreme court was telling them that the mandamus issued did not harm the CPS in that manner.

Can't return the children without knowing who the parents are... and until the birth parents come forth this case will remain in limbo.

Parents that choose to take their orders from a perverted leader that molests young girls and assigns and swaps families around like chess pieces should not be raising these children.

The flds were not the ones deceiving here. They were forthright about their children. The CPS were the ones lying all along.

Nemo, the JUDGE and CPS KNOW who the parents are. How do you think they figured out who could visit which kids? They are also aware of what kids belong to what parents as evidenced by the Parenting Orders she required them to sign. Do not fall for the "the State does not know which kids belong to whom" garbage.

You're right - "can't return the children without knowing who the parents are." And as long as you keep your fingers in your ears, and your eyes closed, and keep yelling "I can't hear you, I can't hear you!", you'll keep not knowing.

Drive the bus up to the gate and let the kids out. The problem will take care of itself.

Could it be that CPS is waiting for the dna results? and try to come up with more accusiations..

"Texas authorities are still investigating whether the original call was a hoax."

----------

Why this silly line, over and over? They knew it was a hoax from day one. The article should read that Texas authorities are still trying to cover up the conspiracy, for which Rozita was a patsy.

The problem is actually the FLDS alleged parents. They are refusing to agree to the final order Judge Walther offered. Their attorneys are claiming they can impose an order on the judge instead of the other way around. Judge Walther has responded that the Supreme Court of Texas explicitly said she can impose reasonable conditions on returning the children during an ongoing child abuse investigation. She, rightly, refuses to release the children without restrictions such as keeping them in Texas being agreed to.

I am not sure all alleged parents have refused to sign the final order. I would hope not all the lawyers are going along with an ill-fated effort to bully the judge. Time will tell.

I urge reasonable people to read articles in better papers than Utah's. If you had read the New York Times article about Friday's hearing, you would not be under the impression Judge Walther left the court without explaining why she amended the order and her auhority to do so.

I have read both rulings and as of coarse Interloper is wrong. The Appeals court ruling was upheld and that ruling says to vacate the order to seize the children and adults. i.e. return them

Texas:...can you spell BANKRUPTCY?

It is a sad commentary on most of the nation. Such corrupt power-mad officials did not spring up overnight and, it will only get worse unless we do whatever it takes to return to sanity. The greatest threat we as a people face today is not a foreign power or terrorists; it is a fifth column of self proclaimed demigods.
Just as it did not get this bad overnight; it cant be fixed overnight. I will not see the end of this struggle but, what remains of my life will be used to fight for the next generation.

Interloper, Judge Walther's revised order is anything but reasonable. Allowing CPS to take children for questioning or medical exams off the ranch at any time of day or night while the "investigation" continues, the end date of which removed by Walther?
That's basically forcing the parents to sign away their fourth amendment rights.

CPS is stalling because they may have lost some kids. If not, why were they at the gates of the ranch demanding to go in and look for 5 kids from 5 to 15 the day before the appeals court ruling? They haven't known how many kids they had from the beginning and they have changed ages themselves all along by eyeballing.
