From a different story: KINGMAN, Ariz. -- An Arizona judge dropped four of eight charges against Warren Jeffs, even as authorities in Texas looked into whether the polygamist sect leader had relationships with four girls at the west Texas ranch raided in April.

So perhaps this was the real reason for the massive raid on the ranch in Texas. The case against Jeff's was in trouble and they wanted direct evidence of child molestation against him. So with the evidence from the ranch, they now have 4 potential cases

That actually seems to make sense, and it would explain why the CPS was so insistent on the DNA testing even when they didn't have DNA samples from the adult men. They do have a sample of Warren Jeffs DNA. That would also explain why they took adult women into custody too, they wanted their DNA too and since Warren Jeffs has been on ice for a while they needed a large net.

It may also help explain why the FLDS created YFZ in Texas. It would make it very hard for Utah and Arizona officials to get information or testimony from those witnesses.

Ah, that may be so. Although I was thinking they may have moved there before that case broke. That it was the lax Texas laws with the young marriage age (at the time) that was the root cause.
