Obviosly something has happened, but what? I doubt we ever get the whole truth. But why worry God will punish those that have done wrong.... also those that accuse people without reason.

This is the sort of thing I have been wondering. Is it the common practice in that community to marry and/or abuse 14 year old girls or was the one teenager who phoned an exception?

I certainly agree that issue needed to be tackled but the way this has been done without any apparent forward planning just doesn't seem to have taken the well-being of the children, once removed, into consideration.
