76. I don't think we will ever agree on this
In my opinion, taking into account the secretive atmosphere of this group and their disregard for our laws unless it suits their need, there was no other way to investigate this. If they took only a few of the pregnant girls and left the rest, and found out through those girls about the abuse, there is every reason to believe that the children would have been taken out of state and CPS would not be able to rescue the other after an investigation.

If those children are returned , with the exception of a few boys, the rest will be condemned to a miserable existence.

I'll read through your link, but perhaps you could give me some background so I know what I am looking at. Were those kids completely shut away from the world, uneducated, unaware of their rights as human beings? Were they cut off from the world without even realizing they have a right to say no to sex? or to not be hit? Were those mothers kept in a state of fear, brainwashed from the time that they were children also?

This case is unlike any other really. In this case, the cult is so established that they do not bring in outsiders, but rather breed their own new followers. There is little chance to get inside and investigate. When people who escape tell their stories nothing is done. They are ignored.
