Last night I caught a bit of Anderson Cooper interviewing a lady (Kathleen something) from the compound. She likened what happened to them being taken to a tiny holding facility which was overcrowded and had only 2 bathrooms, with what happened to the Jews at the Nazi war camps.

Anyway...afterwards they were trying to get clear information about who the girl was that called, and where she called from. They kept saying she may have called from Colorado City, and is in AZ. Not too sure on that info, and apparently neither were they.

I know she called and reported being given to this man and being beaten and abused. I think there is enough evidence from proceeding situations which inferred that it is a common occurrence in this type of sect.

I can see why the authorities went in, but the question remains - where will they stop?

I think they will stop at the law.

Polygamy isn't against the law. That's not what this is about.

It's about child abuse.

I think they will stop there.

It's a horrible situation at best!
