US: Court to hear sect mothers' plea to see children
A Texas appeals court agreed today to hear arguments that hundreds of children the state took from a polygamist compound should be allowed to see their mothers while the massive custody case is resolved.
The Yearning For Zion Ranch was raided three weeks ago, but many of the mothers were allowed to stay with their children until last Thursday when two buses took the women from the coliseum, where the state had been keeping them and the children, back to the west Texas compound.
