Texas polygamist raid custody case drains families under scrutiny
Texas officials moved 416 children from a polygamist retreat into state custody while mothers were sent away. A judge and lawyers face a legal logjam in one of the nation’s largest child custody fights. Of 139 women who left with their children since the April raid, only those with kids four or younger could stay. The state accuses the Fundamentalist Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints of abusing the children and seeks to end parental custody.
