Would anybody who had a spec of decency?

I don't understand how the State of Texas can KNOW that sexual, physical and psychological abuse was perpetrated against these poor children, and not try to protect them by at least dropping by now and then for a chat. Might they KNOW something we don't?

That's about a 90-day window for an investigation to remain "open". I suspect that if a pending investigation isn't quite finished by that date, there will be an extension by the state to prohibit travel, perhaps for specific people not for the entire group. And I really wonder why Mr Parker hasn't filed suit for recovery of all the documents and property seized illegally, and sought a restraining order or cease-and-desist to prohibit state investigators from further inspection or examination of it?

I really hope that Walther is disbarred too. But considering this is Texas, and seeing as how the president doesn't much care for the Constitution (that he is swears to uphold and protect) it's not shocking how bad they violated it. Now why was it again that Utah learned their lesson in the 50's, that Texas didn't ask them why they hadn't proceeded to try it again since? Also, if no one is being charged with abuse, why are they signing anything? How can that be legal? This is like me being charged with a DUI, then being let go saying I wasn't drunk, but I'm on probation for 6 months because they pulled me over and thought I was. c'mon!

Who's to say that, from the beginning, Texas authorities knew they wouldn't be able to keep the children away, but also knew that any reunion would have stipulations, regardless of the guilt of the parents? Also, I am told that the one child who was not returned was not returned for fear of contact with a former abuser. Has this former abuser been charged or imprisoned? If so, why not? Why keep the child from her mother, rather than imprison the individual who actually committed a crime?

Amazing, isn't it? I consider it a form of slavery to mandate that somebody innocent cannot freely move about the country.

This sickens me... many of these parents are innocent of wrongdoing. Now they are required by law to never leave the state, merely because of an <i>accusation</i> of wrongdoing? I certainly hope that my freedoms are never infringed for life merely because I am <i>accused</i> of wrongdoing, without any corroborating evidence or conviction. Imagine someone being falsely accused of burglary, but was never convicted of the crime because the evidence did not support the charges. Is it justice to place social restrictions on this person merely because the accusation was made? Connor,

It is quite clear that many if not all of these children were sexually abused in one way or another. Forcing a 13 year old girl to have children is still wrong but now it is also legal. Our society has taken another huge step backwards. It is now very clear that Warren Jeffs is innocent of any and all charges against him. Free Warren Jeffs!
