I have a lot of problems with this... First off, the family court stated that the kids were NOT abused... The court that took them away stated reasons like both parents being unemployed and that the father was illiterate. In other words, the state is taking away the children because they don't like the sort of people the parents are... This is VERY dangerous. Home-schoolers? Nope, you can't keep your kids... Christians? Nope, you can't keep your kids either...

It's not anywhere near that bad... For now.

Exactly. The parents are indefensible but the constitution is not.

It did not state that the kids were not abused, the lower court did not find sufficient evidence. There is a BIG difference between not guilty and innocent. The decision was appealed to a higher court that over-turned the lower court’s finding. Also, I’m thinking the wife’s note that if she was dead he killed her and that she feared for the kids if left in his care probably had alot to do with it as well.
