Returning a bunch of kids to a bunch of illegal polygamists would be wrong.
Problem with your thinking is, no one has proven them to be illegal polygamists in a court of law. Darn those little details that keep us civilized.
CPS has maintained throughout this whole thing that the entire ranch was one “household.” It was their justification for grabbing all the children, instead of just those who might arguably have been “married” sometime soon. Then, instead of giving each family an individualized hearing as to whether any child in that family was in imminent danger, they lumped them all together.
CPS can’t take that position when they are grabbing the children, then insist on individualized family identification when they are trying to avoid giving them back.
