Er, excluding the lawsuit payouts, yet to come.

We are looking at underaged brides living in giant mansions with their trial attorneys....

Thank god it is only tax payers money...

“We’re going to wind up with a $30 million bill here in this little county because these people didn’t have their ducks in a row.”

Half of every graduating class graduates at the bottom.

These people are in government and costing those that worked hard to graduate and earn a good living a lot of money.

"Whatever money comes their way goes straight into the FLDS coffers, so the next Warren Jeffs can live very, very comfortable life. Some people just can't get by the hate, can they? It must be in the DNA.

"Stupid is as stupid does."

[Soliton]

460 X $1,000,000 = $460,000,000 plus punitive damages.

I can only hope that the damages and pain and suffering from the forthcoming lawsuit against CPS is $70 million or $700 million. Spare no effort. NOW is the time to put the CPS Nazis in their place. Let every CPS department, in every state and county, quake in their boots.

Keeping the over 18 mothers in custody when they proved they were legal adults followed by trying to terminate the mothers’ rights while in the hospital - that’s worth 50 million there. IMHO.

After the lawsuits, that bill will be a lot bigger.

Taking the boys and young girls based on their parents "beliefs" should cost them another $400 mil.

I hope there are some good lawyers out there drooling over the state of Texas.

(BTW, I *am* a Texan and it's my taxes which will help foot this bill. I'll happily pay to set a precedent.)

[tbw2]

I’m Texan, too. What freaked me out about this case was the false call that generated it - and still no arrest of the nut - AND when they had no solid stacks of pregnant teenagers, they still kept grown women in prison.
Trying to take newborns of women kept in custody - makes me glad we (theoretically) have a second amendment.

Post #9 - ditto

[Saundra Duffy]

Remember CPS making that big announcement about the boys having massive broken bones? Turned out to be a lie, too.

Here is an unprofessional video by a Texan concerned about the FLDS children dumped in a particular foster care facility in Liverpool TX. If you can have a little patience, you will be SHOCKED at some of the things this man discovered - damning evidence about the condition of this foster care place:

Some people are wondering why Baptists were so much involved in this raid, for one thing sending their church buses in to haul innocent children away at gunpoint:

Yeah, that’s about par for foster care.
