Story to watch: “Eight children removed from home of purported polygamous couple” by the Utah Division of Child and Family Services (DCFS). https://archive.ph/NsS8r Justified? Or abuse of state power? The story says this family, or rather part of the family—just the husband and one wife have eight kids between them!—are part of the Kingston Group of fundamentalist Mormons. Nicholas Young, the accused dad, is “owner of a firearms company”, Desert Tech I imagine. ”Judge Sandi Clemens ruled the action ‘reasonable’”. Reassured? I am wary until the evidence comes out; the accused are under a gag order. May be another titanic miscarriage of justice by the Iron Heel. + Please keep Nicholas Young, his wife Amber Stowell, their eight children, and the other wives and kids in their plural family in your prayers. + #IronHeel #BigBrother #pluralmarriage #polygyny #polygamy #largefamilies #family #Utah #UT #DCFS
