Polygamous sect girl says she “feared for life”
The count of children removed from Warren Jeff’s polygamous sect compound has risen to over 400, and stories are starting to come out that life wasn’t exactly some idyllic religious experience there. Rather, many of the women and children that lived on the sprawling Texas ranch may have stayed out of fear of punishment, or even death:
he 16-year-old girl whose call for help sparked a massive raid at a polygamous sect’s compound in west Texas said her spiritual husband would “beat and hurt” her whenever he got angry - sometimes choking her and once breaking her ribs.
During these attacks, another woman in the home held her infant child, the girl said in March 29 calls to an unnamed family violence shelter.
The new details about the call that led to an unprecedented evacuation of children from the sect’s YFZ Ranch near Eldorado are laid out in a chilling affidavit released Tuesday by the Texas Department of Family and Protective Services.

Smells like they’re burning the witches again. not to mention that it was legal in Utah for 14 yrs old to marry (with parental consent) until about 2 yrs ago when the lesbians, feminists and their enablers got attorney general mark “zeig heil” shurtleff to raise the age.
oppressors always resort to making the religion of their enemies a crime. Isn’t that what happened in babylon under nebachadnezer? weren’t the jews almost exterminated because they refused to worhip the king ahead of god? note: the enemies of the jews had nebachadnezer enact a law requiring that only the king could be worshiped. it was the death penalty to worship god.
if it was okay to marry a 14 year old two years ago then it is okay today–the only thing that has changed is that the lesbians and feminist managed to amend the marriage statute. well…it is time to amend it back.
and i’ll bet none of those women have the LBT (low back tattoo) or are sluts or whores.

What an odd analogy. Why are you so angry with citizens who are looking out for the well being of children? Did the good people that care about children put up a road block for you to go after little kids? Sheesh.

…so 45 year old+ men raping 14 year old girls and threatening their lives if they leave, is religious freedom? Not in this country pal!

LOL. So, this is all women’s fault that children cannot be statutorily raped? ROFLMAO! (Hmmm…I see a trend here in demeaning girls and women, don’t you? Seems like you think of them as just a piece of property.)
and i’ll bet none of those women have the LBT (low back tattoo) or are sluts or w****s.
You are seriously messed up. These are children, of course they’re not sluts or whores. Your kind are the ones that are prostituting these children out. You are a delusional whore.

Don’t really know who educated Truth Spreader, but you can tell how he views females. Those are children being put in adult situations, and being made to do things as slaves. I think that you need some more teaching, before you get to talking, and commenting on things. Everyone has an opinion, and yours is garbage.
