” They imprisoned innocent adults without due process.”

No one has been put in prison, yet. The young lady was in Protective Custody. Here’s the thing. It doesn’t matter what age the GIRL/WOMAN was, she was pregnant. The BABY was in Protective Custody, and without a forced, instant caesarian-section, the mother had to go to.


“In one case the young lady had produced both her birth certificate and drivers license as proof of age. The state of Texas refused to recognize these documents as proof of her age and continued to hold her in illegal captivity.”

(I tried to get the ‘key’ to your long objections listed. Hope the above was it.)

What you say, is essentially true, but you are missing out on some things.

The ‘minors’ were difficult to identify, especially since they would changed their stories, or claimed not to know , and did not have any ID on them during the so called ‘RAID’.

Notice, in the PICTURES OF FLDS WOMEN, not a one of them carries a PURSE.

Now, I could line up a bunch of young ladies, from 12 to 20, and I bet you couldn’t guess a single one of their ages correctly.

So, in some of the cases of minors in custody, since the CPS was forced to guess, there will be some mistakes found.

....

Now, If they produced ‘proof’, you argue, why were they kept in custody.

The ‘answer’ is that this woman was ‘released’ from Protective Custody because the Judge was shown her ‘proof’ in a court of law, and that is the ONLY WAY that someone can be removed from PROTECTIVE CUSTODY.

By the Judge. Each ‘minor’ is getting their chance, in these individual custody hearings, to PROVE their age.

Yes, around 20 may be ‘adults’. Isn’t that at least a good thing? The LAW is being followed, and done in court, and not in the newspaper.


Does this mean that because the CPS had to guess, and was wrong, that there are not minors, who are pregnant, who are in custody properly?

No. How many?


” The state says more than half of the 53 girls ages 14 to 17 are pregnant or already have children. The sect says CPS is incorrectly including in that count 26 females who are actually 18 or older.”

53-26= 27 girls,age 14-17 ,pregnant or have children.

The CPS said half of the 53 "girls" aged 14-17 were pregnant or had children. FLDS says they can prove that 26 are 18 or older. You are assuming that ALL of the actual 14-17 year olds have children or are pregnant. It is also possible that ALL the pregnant ones, or ones with children, are the 26 eighteen plus women (half of 53).
