Score one for the children and mothers who were torn out of their homes because of a hoax phone call. One outraged Texan, with whom I whole heartedly agree, had the following to say:
This raid and the way Texas is treating the Families is wrong in so many ways. And what’s worse is the lack of Media attention this bungled raid is getting.
From the beginning there have been some serious questions needing answered by the State of Texas.
1. Where is the girl who supposedly called? It’s been over two weeks and the authorities can’t produce this “girl” who called the abuse center. Hmmmm (There was none, it was a bogus phone call made by some black girl that they have a photo of but no name!)
2. If these girls were so bad off as the State of Texas says, then how is it that a 16 year old girl has a cell phone and the number to the abuse center?
3. Where is the recording of the call? Would the State of Texas please release the recording?
4. Why haven’t there been any arrest of the Males who alledgedly had sex with these girls? It’s been over two weeks but no arrest. If this problem was as rampant as the Sheriff and the State of Texas makes it out to be, why are there no arrest?
5. Since when does the State of Texas execute search warrants on hearsay?
It was reported by Investigators that there were ”lots” of pregnant teenage girls running around the compound, but since the raid, only 3 (possibly) have been found. Now they’re saying “they appeared to be “lots” of pregnant teenage girls!”
It now appears the wrong man was named in the affadavit. Way to go Texas!
It’s pretty obvious Texas’s raid against the FLDS compound was as much a cluster f**k as the Federal Raid on Waco was, even more so when you see these peoples Constitutional rights being violated for no other reason than it being an election year and the “powers to be” not agreeing on how these people live thier lives.
Who’s next…the Amish? Menonites? Jews? Rednecks?
What kind of an outcry do you think would have gone up if this had been a Spanish compound or a compound full of Muslims? But since it was a bunch of Fundamentalist Mormom’s living like it was 1800, no freakin’ problem.
