Anonymous sources telling of sex with young girls, a call to the state from a 16 year old girl yet to be located.

This is starting to sound like Waco all over again, where nothing they were accused of was ever substantiated....but way after everybody at the facility were DEAD.....

You can’t be serious.

Pregnancy is clear evidence of sex with young girls.

What other proof do you need?

So the pregnant 15 year olds aren’t proof of anything?

Wow.

I have heard that there are lot of girls but hardly any boys being held in protective custody. if this is true, they need to investigate what happened to the boys. I have heard that most are kicked out at an early age so the old men can have young brides.

Girls who are 15 and 16 are pregnant - that is not anonymous.

Lyle Jeffs, representing himself and the FLDS church.

As a wise man once said, "The only person dumber than someone who represents himself is his client."

Something to that effect.

Hope the Doc sees this, also. I have problems with this part of the story:

“working with a confidential informant who has shared information about the ranch over several years”

These crimes were ongoing over several years?

Close. I believe it is ...”The person who wishes to be his own lawyer has a client for a fool”.

I agree!

I recently read “Escape” by Carolyn Jessop, who was a plural wife of Merrill Jessop, who was mentined in this story. She was “married” to him when she was a teenager and he was about 50. IIRC, she was Wife # 4. She was raised in FLDS sect, and essentially brainwashed to believe that any disobedience to her husband or to FLDS authorities was a sure ticket to hell. She eventually began to think for herself and concluded that she was trapped in a cult, and began looking for a means to escape. She finally made it out, and took her children with her. Her story is very compelling, and her ability to overcome adversity is amazing.

This is starting to sound like Waco all over again,...

The affidavit was from Texas Ranger Leslie Brooks Long...

This is nothing like Waco, The Texas Rangers are the Best Law Enforcement agency in the world. There are only 134 Texas Rangers, they are the best of the best and extremely selective of who joins their ranks. They only investigate high profile cases and corruption of political offices and other law enforcement agencies.  They are beyond reproach.

Just where do you get "Waco II" from HD1200?

The State of Texas and the Texas Rangers handled this just fine.

Little girls who were being sexually abused were rescued.

If you have a problem with this, I question your sanity.
