25 mothers taken from FLDS ranch now believed to be minors
SAN ANGELO, Texas — Twenty-five mothers staying at a shelter for children taken from a polygamists' compound are now believed to be minors.
Child Protective Services spokesman Darrell Azar says the girls initially claimed to be adults but are now believed to be under 18. The girls are in state custody.
The discovery takes the number of children taken from the ranch controlled by the Fundamentalist Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints to 462. The number has been climbing since the state swept all the children off the ranch nearly three weeks ago.
Of the children taken into custody, roughly 260 remain at the San Angelo Coliseum. The others were bused to foster facilities around the state.ate.
It is on a time line. I am unaware of how to excerpt from a time line.
At the same time, I don't see why there is a problem with having these people speak out. What is frightening to you about that?
I stand corrected, though the degree of puberty may be up for discussion. And their access, as per documentation of the compound lifestyle—— there access to the females was nil. Being worked from sun-up to sun-down and watched constantly means they aren’t likely suspects.
However, that still doesn’t excuse the other 300 who are missing.
What 300 hundred missing?
I think I love you;)
This one doesn’t include the last names. I will try to find the one that does.
“The judge rules that children will be identified by numbers. The CPS witness says one girl said Sarah - the girl who called in the original complaint - does exist. One girl said no age limit exists for girls to get married and have children, the witness says.
Witness said they were told at the gate there were no Sarahs, but workers found several on the ranch.
Witness testifies she determined children younger than 17 had given birth to a child or had conceived children on the ranch.”

Amen!
If the matter was so cut and dried, why did the Texas Rangers go to Arizona later on to investigate?
No, you said there were Sarah Jessops found there. Soure THAT.
Agree & Amen.
I’ll take a moral agnostic over the FLDS blasphemous demonic pedophiles, masquerading as prophets and believers any day.
To those of you who do not understand the morality in this statement - take it up with JR and get me banned - I’m not skeered.
Do the math-— if there are 410+ Children, mostly female, plus 139 ‘wives’ that comes to ~~550..
Remove the 25 teens from the total, plus an generous estimate that 100 of the younger children are male (200 would make it a normal population). You come up with 125 males to about 450 females. Even removing from the count the 25 ‘men’ (I refuse to call the scum fathers)....Birth rates are 50/50 give or take, so there should be about 300 or so more males than are present.
PS,
the more you post, the more posts you avoid answering and the posts you do answer is painting you as Jeff’s boy.
You can’t devalue these children just because you don’t like their parents.
And the propaganda of the cultists that DO devalue these children is worth repeating?
Your denial of agreeing with the cult's position rings hollow.
I leave it to the mods to make the call on the suitability of posts directly from the cult's web page. They don't read every post, and when something like that is posted some of us alert them.
There is nothing in nature to explain the imbalance in male/female ratio.
I read where Jeffs had children under the age of 6 removed to a different commune - because they were*uncontaminated*
If boy toddlers with infant sisters were left behind - either brothers or sisters must have been separated from each other and or their mothers. It’s too diabolical to imagine.
The more I read, the more I believe Jeff’s is the anti-christ.
All we are is made via our bonds-— parents, siblings, aunts, uncles etc. We are our ages marked via birthdays. We are who we daydream and create. We become ourselves via play, learning to love and trust, being kids being loved in a safe world.
He’s stolen everything from these kids that make them total beings.
Forget it.
I told you I was hunting further. Yet you get snotty with me.
Guess what, I’m not a slave on some cult compound. I don’t have to jump when you snap.
You are rude, and you’re a jerk. I’m done with you.
A brief is a brief. The above article is a court document.
The court ultimately is the finder of fact.
Thanks. In that partial list of children, I count one Sara with no last name, and a SARAH JESSOP BARLOW. The exact name on the warrant.
“You chose to devote your time and passion to the Jeffs team”
“Absolutely incorrect.”
Flds is Jeffs team, the cult you are working so hard for is Jeffs team.
