Yet another religious cult raided

[eppie]

31 of them are considered by officials to have been abused

No this is not what it said. 31 of the 53 girls in the ages between 14 and 17 were or have been pregnant. All of them could have been abused just as the ones below the age of 14 and as Jim points out the boys as well. And we didn't even count the over 18's that were abused when they were younger (and still are)

Even if this sect had a 31 out of 463 abusal rate (~7%) it would be enough reason to remove all of the children. However far likely the abusal rates are much higher.
