Where all the women wear gingham burqas?
Seems, now, that the call reporting the abuse didn't come from an abused girl, as was originally reported. Or at least, not from one who was undergoing abuse at the time.
Rather, authorities report now, the tip that spawned the raid on the baby-fuckers' compound there in ElDorado, Tx (an ass-hole place, to begin with) was called in by a woman in Colorado with a history of making false reports.
Still, in a blow to those who still believe in 'free will,' a witness testifying in the matter before a Texas judge made the following observation:
An expert in children in cults testified Friday that while the teen girls believed they were marrying out of free choice, it's a choice based on lessons they've had from birth. (In which they vary, exactly, how from any other children? Ed.)Elsewhere in news from the Cult of the Baby-fuckers, the 'victims' aren't being very cooperative with the authorities. "Identifying children and parents has been difficult because members of the Fundamentalist Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints have given different names and ages at various times, Voss said. The state has asked that DNA be taken from all of the children and their alleged parents to help determine biological connections. The judge has not ruled on that request."
"Obedience is a very important element of their belief system," said psychiatrist Bruce Perry, who interviewed three girls seized in the April 3 raid. "Compliance is being godly, it's part of their honoring God."
He also said that many of the adults at the Yearning For Zion Ranch owned by the Fundamentalist Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints are loving parents and that the boys seemed emotionally healthy when he played with them.
But, he noted, the sect's belief system "is abusive. The culture is very authoritarian."
Child welfare investigator Angie Voss testified Thursday that at least five girls who are younger than 18 are pregnant or have children. Voss said some of the women identified as adults with children may be juveniles, or may have had children when they were younger than 18.
