Why Can't We Save the Village Without Destroying It?

Sue, this is a horrible case.. those poor kids. From the Article:
In the world of the FLDS, "spiritual marriage" between older men and underage girls -- what the law defines as rape -- is given the stamp of religious approval
Well, ladies...I hate to disagree ;)
But according to the way the law is written, CYS did NOT have substantial evidence (legally speaking) to remove the children from their parents. Now, I personally LIKE the idea of requiring agencies to actually follow the law before they go pulling kids out of their homes. It may be irritating in a case such as this, to have them you know, follow the law...but in the case of a wrongful accusation, I'd be much happier knowing a family wasn't torn apart based on less than substantial evidence!
