San Angelo, a city of about 80,000 population, has plenty of motels where the FLDS women and children could be held. Placing them in 19th Century calvary barracks rather than standard motel rooms is clearly a publicity stunt on the part of the CPS and the law enforcement agencies to hold them up as anachronisms, especially as the women were dressed in their Victorian era clothing. This would be more difficult to do if they were at a Best Western or an Econo Lodge.

I don’t agree. It’s not a publicity stunt. They have over 400 women and children to care for. Think of the security issues.
