SAN ANGELO — A Texas judge on Sunday ordered law enforcement officials to immediately confiscate all cell phones in the possession of FLDS women and children now housed in temporary quarters here. "I just called to say, hi. They are about to collect the phones, I think," one soft-spoken FLDS woman said during a telephone call to another member of the Fundamentalist LDS Church who was outside of the shelter. "I don't like what they're doing."
Several of the women inside the shelters spoke by cell phone to the Deseret News on Saturday to describe the living conditions there. Children could be heard crying in the background of each conversation. The News published an article on Sunday, quoting the women who complained there was no privacy and that their children were getting sick.
FLDS faithful outside the shelter are convinced Sunday's court order is a direct result of the women speaking to the newspaper.
"This is nothing more than retaliation of Child Protective Services to punish those who were disclosing what is really happening behind the walls of this concentration camp," said Don, an FLDS member who asked that his last name not be used. "These are my family members."

AS with most abuse, it is mind control and brain washing. The forcing of everyone to dress and act alike is part of it.
It’s a type of sexual sadism really. Controlly sexuality and individuality.
Perhaps the judge could issue an order, to make them dress in “normal” clothes. I’m sure it would be for their own good...
...and trains that don’t run on time!
Sorry, najida, but even if there’s crime committed, then there’s no excuse for the authorities to ignore the rights of innocent people. Such thinking leads to abuse and worse conditions in the long-term/big picture.
Yes, she's sitting on those steps and not even showing her panties!
A letter from perverts that think it is just dandy to rape little girls.
Someone else pointed out witness tampering. You’re dealing with a pretty brainwashed group. What would you do? Monitor their calls? Hope they don’t get cueing and coaxing? Plans for where to meet to regroup later?
It’s bizarre in the extreme.
Okay, so these women are perverts in your mind. Are they criminals?
I’d rather see a free woman bare ass nekid on those steps because she wants to than some creature who has never had a free moment in her life dressed like Granny Klampet because some old geezer gets his control jollies from it......
They are in the middle==not criminals, but willing to aid the criminals in allowing their children to be used by said criminals.
That's right. Just like those women in the compound were if the government doesn't do anything to protect her citizens from over-sexed perverts like those sorry excuses of humanity. I wouldn't call them men because that would be an insult to real men who know that a woman has value beyond being a sex object.
I think the judge should issue an order that they all get to appear on “What Not to Wear (in this century)”
And I can't imagine why, I mean why would 'Don' not want to give his last name to the nice reporter from the DeseretNews...could it be it 'matched' the surname of a dozen or kids? Hmmmmmmmm
Okay, so these women are perverts in your mind. Are they criminals?
You have a reading problem, the criminal perverts in this case are the ones forcing sex on under age little girls. And if you don't have a problem with this perverted conduct then you have a mental problem also.
Please note the well placed tissue box. Uber sympathy from the SLC media?
It's the rights of innocent people the government is protecting here.
Or do you consider living like that a good thing? Do those women and children have ANY rights in that compound?
Yeah-—
And I do feel sorry for those women....but I’m terrified for their kids and any future children they may have.
Sorry...I guess I missed their trial.
Tell it like it is.
BTTT
True & the more wives the better. Lets not forget the men who have been tossed out of the FLDS & their whole families given to new men . Or the boys they run out of the FLDS so the old perverts can have the young girls.
