What I said happens to be true. There have been other, individual prosecutions, as well, since the Short Creek raid.
Tom Green was sent to prison for underage sex and welfare fraud.
When there are individual crimes and evidence, they are prosecuted. When there are consenting adults living together in polygamous relationships, they are not prosecuted.
As someone on another thread said, you could go into any housing project in the US and find 12 and 13 year olds having sex and having babies, with the “baby daddies” wandering around impregnating at will and taking no responsibility. Does that mean the state can raid the place at will and take all the children?
Adults being the operative word.
When there are individual crimes and evidence, they are prosecuted....case links please. When there are consenting adults living together in polygamous relationships, they are not prosecuted. ....why? Is it legal in Utah?
As someone on another thread said, you could go into any housing project in the US and find 12 and 13 year olds having sex and having babies, with the “baby daddies” wandering around impregnating at will and taking no responsibility.......which has nothing to do with the institutionalized coercion and rape of the FLDS children.....

Child rape is prosecuted every day. The state agencies remove children from homes every day for abuse. There aren't a whole bunch of people, until NOW, castigating state agencies and law enforcement for protecting these children.
