SAN ANGELO, Texas — An appellate court decision upended the custody case that sent more than 440 children from a polygamist sect's ranch into foster care, but it's not clear whether the children might soon return home.
The Third Court of Appeals in Austin said the state failed to show the youngsters were in any immediate danger, the only grounds under Texas law for taking children from their parents without court action. http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,357266,00.html
I knew in time that this would come about. They had no right to take those children. If you disagree, then it would ok for someone who knew you to phone in tip to the police about your kids, then the police can come into your home and take your kids, as done in this case. Ibelieve the police jump the gun on this one and law suits will follow.
"But the appeals court said the state acted too hastily in sweeping up all the children and taking them away on an emergency basis without going to court first."
