“Why such vehemence in defense of a nest of pedophiles and polygamists?”
1.The mothers and children are not pedophiles.
2.The basis of your fears regarding their future are unfounded. Since you have nothing more than some drunkard’s alcoholic psychosis to believe they might disappear if they return home.
Some of the mothers are enablers of pedophiles. Some of the children are victims.
Since there was so much deceit about the names, ages and family relationships, it was impossible to tell which were which at the time the children were removed from the cult compound. The DNA and Attorney General Abbott will help the court sort it out, since the adults from the cult didn’t seem willing.
The “bishop’s record” notes that some women and children are in a “house of hiding.” http://deseretnews.com/article/1,5143,695275970,00.html
“”The March 2007 papers list the names of men, their wives, their children and the ages of each of them. A handful of young women, ages 16 and 17, are listed as wives of men in their 20s, 30s and 40s. Others are married to men closer in age. Some women, the records show, live in a “house of hiding.””
