Again you have no idea what you are talking about.
It is in ON GOING INVESTIGATION that started LESS THAN A WEEK AGO.
Incorrect. The investigation would have been ongoing for months if not years (I would bet on at least a year). This is merely the first overt action.
Yeah the investigation into the cult. The state of texas has been loosely monitoring them for four years. Actual investigations into sexual abuse at the compound would have started last week with the interviewing of the females taken from the compound. Theres no real investigation until you can actually interview the victims. To say where are the charges when there are 400+ people to process is stupid.
Its going to take months to get all of this sorted out and charges levied.
So basically the government doesn't have a case even after 4 years of investigation. Only now are they trying to build their case by interviewing 400+ people when they could have done that 4 years ago.
Also as we speak right now, most of the men (if I am correct) are already let go because there are no charges. However, the children are still detained with their mothers by their side...

Yes, the government is graciously letting the wives leave... but what type of Mother leaves her kids behind? In all respects, the mothers are also held captive.
GREAT... 4 years of investigation and there's no evidence (no audio tapes, no video, no paper docs, etc.)... Sure lets let the government hold the kids another month or several months.. .heck why not a year to see what kind of charges they can cook up -- obviously, they are grabbing at straws now... But I don't think the government is really thinking about the kids anymore. Its about how they can save face because they screwed up.
It is highly unusually for the government to call of an investigation without levying charges right after. Its usually during the investigation, people gather evidence and documentation, after the investigation, they charge the criminal... THIS IS... unless its a
witch hunt.. In which, everyone is guilty and they deserved to DIAF.. or be hastely labeled sex offenders.. .or get long jail sentences with a big black guy name Bubba without proof. All we need now is a kangaroo court, some medieval torture tools and we will be all set... Yea, for mob rule!!!!
