Covers a great deal more than just one murder. I just read it a few months ago.
And yes, it does cover this situation in a way. There is more than just one of these groups and they are also up in Canada.
And I think I should add that my next door neighbors are members of the Later Day Saints. And they are rather normal people. NOT like these folks at all.
And I think, IMVHO, that this threads title is a bit off and very mis-leading.
534 women, children leave polygamist ranch
All 401 children deemed in danger; arrest made earlier at compound
ELDORADO, Texas - Officials on Monday announced that 534 women and children — more than twice as many as had been earlier reported — were removed from a polygamist compound and that all 401 children have been placed in state custody because a judge deemed them in imminent danger of physical abuse.
State police earlier made an arrest as they searched the sprawling rural compound built by polygamist leader Warren Jeffs during an investigation into a possible underage marriage.
