News: FLDS
Depending on what you read, you'll either come to the conclusion that the Fundamentalist Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints is a dangerous and abusive cult, or that they're a misunderstood minority. Their settlement, the Yearning For Zion ranch (strange how it's always abbreviated to "YFZ" by the press) was the site of a raid a few weeks ago - based on allegations of abuse.

The FLDS view:
In any event, it seems that the "16 year-old girl" who called authorities in the first place is either nonexistent, or worse, someone with a history of making false claims. I'm not one to allow children to be oppressed, but if cops will storm into a place based on a phony anonymous tipster, it looks bad, even if it's okay under Illinois v. Gates.
