Brother,

Did You see where the authorities took away the Mother's cell phones?

I believe there will be charges brought against some of these Mommas as well as the Daddies.

Nina

Also there were probably only 10 or so Daddies involved.
These Dads generally have 30 or 40 kids by several different women.

Thats what I am saying take the ten daddies and let the investigation begin.

Then if there are mothers added as accomplices that take those too. But to take 400 children from their mothers instead seems overstepping.

It's very simple. You get each mother with their children. Ask the age of the oldest. Ask the mothers age. Subtract. If it is under the age of consent arrest the father.

Can't do that if they are married, Prax.

They do not have evidence yet. All they have is an allegation. A cry for help from one of them. That's it. They acted on that alone.

When they DO have the evidence, THEN they can go after the criminals. Until then they have to act on the accusation of a crime being committed.

This is true, but since most of these women have been in the same situation as these girls in the past, you would think that something would rise up in them when they remember how they felt.

And it is obvious that many of these girls are terrified and traumatized, there are too many reports over the years of girls trying to escape. I guess maybe over time, these women just give up hope. It is tragic.

Just think.... ALL these women are probably under the impression that they would be in REBELLION!!!!!!!! if they spoke out against their husband/overlord.

And since REBELLION!!!! is as the sin of witchcraft..... And the husband is anointed as in "Touch not mine anointed"......

Re: Whoa! Polygamist solution is frightening...

you wonder how people become involved...but it happens little by little...until there is no way out. Those that were born there think that is normal...many communities never let the children even go off the grounds...so sad.
