Good to see at least one judge in TX understands what needs to be done.

I posted this on another thread, but will post it here too:

(Snip...)

As part of that investigation, Texas officials on Friday obtained a DNA sample from Warren Jeffs, the leader of the breakaway Mormon sect.

Jeffs is in Arizona serving a prison sentence of 10 years to life for being an accomplice to rape by forcing a 14-year-old to marry her cousin.

“In the search warrant you will see that evidence was collected that Jeffs married four young girls,” said Jerry Strickland of the Texas Attorney General’s Office. “Two 12-year-olds, a 14-year-old and a 15-year-old. All of these marriages took place at the Yearning For Zion Ranch in Texas.”

You mean by refusing to sign the order that overturned her decision that was subsequently upheld by the state supreme court? Is that what needs to be done?

So if Jeffs is found by the DNA evidence to have fathered children with children................the lower couort judge probably has a pretty good point, but in my state, Department of Family Services is “God” that’s what I heard a DFS worker tell someone on her cell phone the othere4 day and there is “nothing” a lawyer can do........

This judge is determined to take these kids away (the GOVERNMENT knows so much better) even though she has been slapped down once already

\Texas District Judge Barbara Walther has refused to sign an order restoring custody to the parents until they agree to more restrictions than state child-welfare officials have proposed.

Evidently she is about to get her hat handed to her again. Yea, she needs to just get out of the entire process NOW. I wonder if the superior courts will kick her out.

Texas judge refuses to sign order in polygamy custody case

Different story, same info.

Can you say "Contempt of Court?" I knew you could. (Judge is defying Appeals Court order to vacate her earlier order. This will cause a Writ Of Mandamus to issue, under the terms of the Appeals Court ruling, upheld by the Texas Supreme Court.

Oh, yeah...

Those wierdos ought to be damned glad they weren’t burnt alive by the “authorities”! Not even a dog shot!

The Waco Standard of total immolation is preferred by some jackbooted types, but mere inhumanity will have to do in tis case.

actually it is a situation similar to Bush vs Gore. You have a lower court refusing to comply with the order of a superior court.

The Supreme Court said the Children go back and the CPS is at square one (way to go cps). It is not optional. ONCE the reboot happens THEN CPS can start the whole process all over to have 460 INDIVIDUAL cases to prove the children are in immediate danger AFTER a full evidentiary hearing.

It is the same rule as any other case.

I suppose the State could return the children to the parents...as soon as they found out who the parents are.
