One can only wonder, where are the other photos of the other many brides? If those existed, wouldn't they be more illustrative of the law-breaking that has been described?

Prosecutors & the CPS are going to save photo evidence pertaining to others; they're not going to "show their hand" for a witness who has no pertinent testimony pertaining to those other folks.

The difference we are talking about is due process. It is a violation of due process to hold a 27 year old woman with official identification as a minor.

As I've said on other threads, it's not all that unusual, for example, for even a juvenile to be temporarily held in an adult custody facility when the arrested person has no ID. This can happen, for example, when several illegal aliens are picked up.

Upon discovery, the error is fixed. (And I don't see posters like you screaming about the plight of such folks at risk)

And just what is the evidentiary value of the picture of Jeffs? If you were a judge, would you consider not allowing that picture into evidence due to its prejudicial effect on a jury? Or do you expect that Jeffs will be a defendant in a coming trial also?
