These people, (adult men and women), were busted practicing multiple marriage.
There were no marriage certificates provided, hence no evidence of multiple marriages. Also, many of the ‘marriages’ were called “spiritual marriages” and not legally binding, therefore it is not legally polygamy.
And this is the whole problem with the case. The sect went to great pains to make sure there was no evidence present that could warrant the removal of the children. Yet, the children were removed anyhow.
