Polygamist Sect Kids May Soon Go Home

Thou hath no right to take the children may be the words the polygamist sect members could be singing right now:

A Texas appeals court ruled today that a San Angelo judge exceeded her discretion when she ordered the state to take custody of children from a polygamist sect.

It wasn’t immediately clear whether the decision means the children will be returned right away to the custody of their parents, followers of a breakaway Mormon sect called the Fundamentalist Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints.

Maybe one day the criminal justice system will recognize that we all should be concerned with children's mental/emotional safety as well.
