“A Texas appeals court later found that authorities had not met the burden of proof for the removal of the more than 400 children, and most were returned to their families within two months.”
Can’t wait until the lawsuits against the State of TX start, once these trials are over. It’s call the “US Constitution” and you just can’t bypass it.
If you rounded up every child in a randomly-chosen town of 6000, you’d probably end up with as many child abuse trials and convictions.
Yes, ain't the Texas Constitution wonderful.
It's good that Texas law enforcement followed the constitution of Texas by getting Texas search warrants.
It's equally good that Texas resident FLDS members were also able to avail themselves of Texas Constitution provided redress.
It's truly unfortunate that FLDS adults are so unwise in choosing their associations, that they willingly subject their children to the widely known sexual perversions of other FLDS adults.
It's truly repugnant that FLDS adults subject their families and community to the trappings of the criminal underworld to such an extent that their children have to be exposed to the harsh realities of law enforcement.
Hanging is just too good for them FLDS leaders I tell ya', but the good people of the state of Texas treat criminals more humanely it seems. Have a good day, pard.
The women who were arrested and had newborns taken away because the state is seeking to protect girls from underage marriage (and who marries a newborn?) - absolutely should sue.
The traditionally married families of a husband and wife and children whose children were taken, yes, sue.
So should women whose children were scattered all over the state and then told get a job AND visit the kids AND attend classes - and you get no help from a state that considers you so helpless and defenseless that you cannot protect yourself and children from abuse.
Drug addicts on welfare get more help to adapt to society than the FLDS women did.
AND it was all done on a prank call.
The state will be paying for this big time.
