There has been NO evidence of any physical abuse of these children, NONE. The ONLY facts that have been presented are that some teenage females are pregnant, or have kids. The ages of these females have not been definitively given. In Texas, if these teenagers are under 16 years old, then this could be statutory rape. Also, this sect actively practiced polygamy and this is also illegal. SO, as it currently sits there could be charges against some of the men for statutory rape and/or polygamy. BTW, these charges are difficult to prosecute. There is simply NO evidence given to justify the wholesale stripping of infants and young children from their mothers. This was kidnapping, Texas-style and I can only hope the media will wake up to what an atrocity has been committed by the government and start covering this by asking some tough questions. Why,oh why did the Texas Rangers have to go in at all? Why couldn’t the local law enforcement back up CPS and do on-site interviews? Or do some type of orderly exams and interviews off-site on a small scale? What makes any of the above fortune tellers think that these women, “brainwashed” as they may be, do not love their children with every fiber in their bodies? Taking a nursing, 9 month old, well-bonded human being away FROM THE ONLY THING IT HAS KNOW SINCE BIRTH is torture and deserves a special place down under for this judge. Simply think of the trauma these young children are going thru! A five year old little girl pulled from her crying mother’s arms, separated from her brothers and sisters, taken from all she has ever known, placed in a stranger’s home who is of a different faith. C’mon, people! This is SIMPLY AN OUTRAGE!!
