    This wasn't a typical home with 2 parents and 2-4 children. We're talking hundreds of kids here, and a compound full of people whose reactions could vary. Of course the police are going to send backup!

    I'm sorry, but any home where children don't even know which woman is mommy and which man is daddy DOES constitute abuse. If the children can't even identify their own parents, how were the police supposed to know who stays together and who doesn't?

    While the authorities are trying to sort things out, they chose the safe route and removed the kids from the compounds until the truth comes to light. That's not the same as already convicting and hanging 'em. They're just doing their job.

    I watched a video of a woman who father had so many wives and so many children what he didn't even know who she was, whenever they ran across each other he asked her name and who her mother was. And they lived in the same house!
