Texas Sect Children Reunited With Happy Parents, Others May Have to Wait Longer
Summary from multiple countries, from articles in English
Parents awaiting the release of children taken into state custody during a raid of a polygamist group's ranch may need to wait a few days because so many parents are showing up at foster homes simultaneously, a sect leader said Tuesday. (article 1) Parents took 129 of the roughly 430 children in foster care on Monday after a judge signed an order clearing the children to leave with their parents, bowing to a state Supreme Court ruling that the seizure was not justified. (article 1) Child welfare officials expected many of the remaining children to go home Tuesday as parents traveled across the sprawling state to foster facilities where the children were scattered. (article 1) The alleged perpetrator is an adult sect member who has lived in the past at the group's ranch in Eldorado, she said. (article 7) A Texas judge ordered hundreds of children from a polygamous religious sect who have been held in state custody for more than a month returned to their parents beginning today, ending legal wrangling between lawyers for the state and sect mothers. (article 4) In order to be reunited with their children, Fundamentalist Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints parents must agree that the children will stay in the state, must have their fingerprints taken and must take parenting classes. (article 4)
