3 kids removed from “apocalyptic church” compound

We’re not exactly church going folks, but we gotta admit there’s something intriguing about the high drama of a church that bills itself as “apocalyptic”. Well, that is, right until we read that the head of said church — who claims to be the “Messiah” — may have been diddling some of the younger parishioners.

The two girls and one boy — all under the age of 18 — were taken from the northeastern New Mexico compound following an April 22 investigation, Romaine Serna, spokeswoman for the state Children, Youth and Families Department spokeswoman, said Wednesday.

She said a fourth child, a girl, agreed to be interviewed by the department. Serna said that girl had been at the compound but now lives elsewhere with her parents.

The three children were taken into state custody because of allegations of inappropriate contact between minors and the adult leader of The Lord Our Righteousness Church, Serna said.
