Judge In FLDS Case Guarded; Joint State Efforts Discussed

By Howard M. Friedman

ADVERTISEMENTS
The Deseret News reported yesterday that Texas police are guarding the home of Judge Barbara Walther, the trial court judge who recently ordered removal of over 450 children from the FLDS ranch in Eldorado, Texas. They were especially on the lookout for 16 FLDS members who Utah police see as a threat. A website that supports FLDS members published Walther's home address and her home and work telephone numbers. Her address has now been removed at the request of FLDS leaders. The website also links to petitions to impeach Walther, impeach Governor Rick Perry and abolish Texas Child Protective Services.

In a related development, the Desert News reports today that top law enforcement officials from Utah, Arizona, Nevada and Texas recently met in Las Vegas to discuss cooperative efforts t prosecute crimes within polygamous sects.
