This lens is meant to get the word out about the raid on the YFZ, also known as Yearning For Zion, ranch in Eldorado, Texas and what has happened since then. The residents of the YFZ ranch are followers of FLDS leader, Warren Jeffs.

Breaking News - 5/29/08 

The Texas Supreme Court has just denied the appeal of Child Protective Services, meaning some of the children will be sent back to YFZ Ranch.

EDIT: Updated to reflect that decision technically only applies to 124 of the children, but it significantly impairs the state's position in the remainder of the cases.
