Maybe the ACLU is on the right side this time(for a change).

I agree. This reminds me of a Texas story where a girl was taken from her parents and her brothers and sisters were taken as well because the parents didn't follow 'government perscribed' cancer treatments:

Jerry Springer, is that you?
I can't seem to think of a comment snarky enough to convey my utter contempt for this imbecile.
Good Lord!!!
"Jerry Springer, is that you?"
This does sound like it would a great candidate for the JS carnival if it wasn't so tragic.
Not yet lady, not yet. Just wait a few years.
The article didn't mention if he was a registered sex offender? Are there restrictions on who he can live with/associate with? Those don't disappear because the children are yours.
I don't think child rapists get better - sounds like a horrific place to knowingly let a child live.
Our choices in life have long lasting consequences - the safety of the children should trump any 'right' or trying to prove child rapists can rehabilitate. This isn't about the rights of the parents. It it about safety for the children.
"There's just no evidence in this case that Mr. WolfHawk has engaged in criminal acts against very young minors," said attorney Paula Knudsen
Well then, by all means, let's put the child in danger and see if he will ! (sarcasm)
It sounds like she, the Mother and the ACLU would like to give him ample opportunity to produce that evidence.
Its all about YOU isn't it lady....
When you wake up to hear your 14 year old daughter sobbing in her bed are you going to go find out why, or are you going to cover your ears and pretend he's still not a monster...?
Amen
Are you friggin kidding me? Would you want this cretin around your children? I don't care who he violated PERIOD. He is subhuman and should not be around children PERIOD. If his wife is so stupid I also think she ought be sterilized.
If he were in his early twenties when it happened, and the girls were very adult looking and acting girls, who engaged in consenting, non-forced sex with him, I might agree..
However, the guy was 31 when he plead guilty... and no details were given here about the age and level of engagement of the girls... Whether this was a forcible or unforced act. The charge of "rape" and "attempted rape" leads me to believe there was a struggle and an element of violence to get compliance. That's a major distinction to be clear about.
A long time has passed... but many are adamant when sex offenses occur, that there should be a lifetime punishment for such crimes, and that punishment usually means no contact with potential victims.
She has already had one child taken from her because of this man, so she has another?
I'm with the government on this one. This woman is in DENIAL. The child is the one who will pay for the mother's mistrust, ignorance and stupidity..
"What's wrong with you?"
Who are you to say that his man's crimes are unforgivable? Since when is a convict not allowed to continue life after he pays his debt to Society? Are you trying to say that he is not allowed to marry, raise a family and go on with his life because of his past mistakes? While I would agree that the situation should be monitored closely and the local Child Services should be concerned, the forcible abduction of the child by the State from the mother, who has, by the way, done nothing wrong, is wholly unjustified.
You have no right to question what is 'wrong with me' considering your heartless attitude.
I'm with the government too. The child will pay a life long heavy price. God help it.
