I don't let my emotions rule. In a normal case of child abuse, an anonymous phone call is the trigger. The investigation follows.All the children in a potentially dangerous situation are removed. The investigation follows. This was very out of the ordinary. How did they know who to remove?

I try not to let my emotions rule either. CPS was correct in going in and looking for Sarah. When they didn't find her and they knew that Jessops (I might have the wrong name it is getting late) was in Arizona. The should have left and began a more detailed background investigation. They could have had agents at the compound for weeks looking for Sarah and interviewing people. Camaras, identification, relationships, DNA, etc. etc. etc. and they had a reasonable justification. No one could fault them if they had done that. And if they never found Sarah they could use that as a justification to start searching and investigating all of the FLDS compounds.

Instead of it being a nightmare for the CPS, it would have been a nightmare for the FLDS. Enforcing the laws fairly, reasonably and impartially makes all the difference.

Someone panicked in the CPS and screwed up big time. When they started kidnapping adults, they went way over the line. Someone at the CPS thinks that they are judge, jury and executioner. That person needs to spend some time in a gray cell rethinking taking the law into their own hands.
