Woman Arrested On False Reporting Charges (May be involved in FDLS Sect phone calls)

DENVER -- A Colorado Springs woman was arrested on charges of false reporting to authorities and is being investigated for her alleged involvement in the call that tipped authorities off to possible abuse at a Texas polygamist compound.

Police said they arrested 33-year-old Rozita Swinton at her home on Wednesday.

The Texas Rangers were in Colorado Springs Wednesday as part of their investigation involving the compound in Texas. They left and have not filed any charges on Swinton, said Colorado Springs police spokesman Lt. Skip Arms.

Arms said he could not discuss any aspects of the Texas case. The affidavit for the Colorado Springs case has been sealed so details cannot be released, he said.

Call7 Investigators reported this is not be the first time Swinton has been arrested on charges of making false reports to authorities. According to KRDO, the charge against Swinton was made in connection to calls received by police in February indicating she was 13 years old and trapped in a basement.

Clearly the state has a duty to perform in the protection of children, as it does the protection of all citizens, but the question remains, particularly as Catholics:

Who should have the final say in how a child is raised, the government or the parents?

The Gov't,of course....

Instead of reading books like the Bible and practice piety and chastity,they can now read books like "Heather has two mommy's" and practice putting a condom on a cucumber.

Colorado woman investigated as polygamy-hoax caller
33-year-old reportedly has history of phoning police as child in distress

Rozita Swinton

A 33-year-old Colorado Springs woman has been questioned about a telephone call that sparked a raid at the polygamist Fundamentalist Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints compound in western Texas two weeks ago.

Rozita Swinton was arrested at her home Wednesday night by Colorado Springs police for an incident that occurred in February. Members of the Texas Rangers were also in Colorado Springs as part of their investigation.

"The Texas Rangers were in Colorado Springs (Wednesday) as part of their investigation involving the compound in Texas. They left and have not filed any charges on Rozita Swinton as of this time," said Colorado Springs police spokesman Lt. Skip Arms.

Colorado Springs police said the arrest warrant has been sealed and refused to release any other details, reported Deseret News.

Swinton posted $20,000 bail at the El Paso County Jail and was released.

"She does have some history with Colorado Springs Police of making prior false calls to police," Arms told KRDO Radio in Colorado Springs.

According to KDRO, Swinton's arrest was for a false call to police in February. A young girl named "Jenifer" claimed she was being held hostage in a basement, causing Colorado Springs police to spend most of the day searching more than a dozen homes.

KUSA-TV, Denver, reported Swinton was arrested in Castle Rock, Colo., two years ago for making a false report.

Texas authorities launched their raid on the compound after receiving a warrant based on a phone call from a girl named "Sarah" who called for help, claiming she was pregnant and living inside the compound with her 49-year-old abusive husband.

Flora Jessop, an outspoken ex-member of the FLDS group, told KUSA-TV she believes Swinton may have been the person she spoke with by phone, who claimed to be Sarah's twin sister.

She said the woman she believes is Rozita Swinton called again Thursday morning after Swinton bailed out of the El Paso County Jail.

"I did get her to admit to me her name was Rose," Jessop said.

Texas lawmakers have defended the removal of 416 children from the polygamous sect's ranch and the separation of older children from their mothers.

"I'm so proud of our state for acting in the manner it has acted," said state Rep. Drew Darby, of San Angelo, earlier this week. Texas' motto, he said, ought to be changed to "Don't mess with the children of Texas."

Ok now give the kids back to their mothers, since it was all a BIG FAT LIE about the reason for their paramilitary assault on unarmed people living in the eighteenth century.

Malice, lies, and falsehood are "abuse" right?

Curious . . . where are all the "castrate the abuser" people now?  Oh that's right, some people can't be castrated.

Feminists idea of "equality" and "fair play"---what a horrific joke.
