The ‘discoveries’ in the unmarked graves at this hell hole in TX could tell a lot about the ‘first pregnancies’. Cattle farmers around this region will allow young heffers to be imprgnated even though the likelihood of obtaining a healthy calf is very low ... gets the heffers ready to pop out calves every other year.

“If people are outraged, it’s because of the evil they see, not because of the sensationalism of the media.”


And yet, they would know NOTHING about this case, without the media.

So, what they see, is what they are being ‘fed’, by the media.

Now, if the media had come out and said that this is only about ONE MALE (who is a convicted sex offender) abusing the RLDS religion for his own purposes, and that the rest of the members of the compound committed no crimes...

There wouldn’t be much of a story, would there?

P.S.

Actually, I think there is much more to this case than the Media has published, so far.

What I am trying to say is that the media will ‘sensationalize’ a story, if it hurts those they want to hurt, and makes them more money.

They will also shut down a story that hurts those whom they want to protect, even if it costs them to do so.

The ONE THING they WILL NOT do is present, unbiased, well-researched and verified news.

“The ‘discoveries’ in the unmarked graves at this hell hole in TX could tell a lot about the ‘first pregnancies’.”

How long ago were these graves discovered?

How much was done about it?

These woman and children are taught that all outsiders are evil, and sometimes that outsiders will kill them. Girls are often taught that if they do anything wrong they will be shunned and left to fend for themselves in the outside world, and that they will be forced to become prostitutes.

Women are told that they and their children are the property of the group and they have no rights. They are taught this from birth. They see their mothers being mistreated and abused. They are mistreated and abused. They don’t make any desicisons,they don’t have any free will left-these woman and children have been brainwashed by perverted old men who wanted to have a lot of sex and babies with underage and young girls.
For a woman like Carolyn Jessop to leave that cult is about the most courageous act a person can make. The fact that she got her children out is amazing.

Your conclusion that this investigation is based on hearsay is not necessarily correct. Your conclusions are based on a document that was released on Drudge.

A child presented to the emergency room and had broken ribs. Radiology would have routinely asked if she were pregnant before that X-ray was taken.

A pregnant fifteen year old probably elicited some questions. Any licensed heath care professional, and they are listed by statute in Texas law, is bound if they think the injury is inconsistent with the story given — to report it. They are guaranteed anonymity, again by statute.

What she told someone in radiology would be 100% protected. With the same protection as an attorney client relationship. Who signed the permit for her care and what relationship they claimed would also be suspect.

The Texas authorities don't run out and have a press conference every ten minutes. No one knows what they have or what they know.

Wow, kicked out at a young age so the “old guys” could have the girls? Well, where are they all? Why aren’t they out there with their stories?

Well they are - some 400 of them kicked out in the last 4 years. They are known as the Lost Boys and some have sued.

Was my bringing up the point that she was an adult and should be responsible for the decisions she made trashing her?

Depends on how free she was to make independent decisions.

I know of a public school near here whose entire senior girl’s graduating class had a case of the big belly!

We always liked to use an ANGUS bull for the first time calf as they are smaller at birth.

Thank you for your expertise. I think I’m getting the picture.
