YFZ Ranch update: sect members’ DNA tested
Apr 21st, 2008 by Holly Fox
As I posted here, more than 500 women and children left or were removed from the Fundamentalist Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints’ Yearning for Zion ranch in Texas, April 3. Now, because many of the children have refused to tell authorities their or their parents’ names and lied about their true ages, Judge Barbara Walther has ordered DNA tests of more than 400 children. This is part of an ongoing process to determine which children may have been abused and which children can be returned to their families. Most of the children and the mothers of the youngest children are being housed at the San Angelo coliseum.
