It looks like the phone call that initiated the CPS raids at the Texas polygamist ranch (aka, 'compound') might have been a hoax. Swatting, as it's called, is when someone spoofs a caller ID number pretending to be someone calling from a specific location. Usually the result is a SWAT team descending on some unsuspecting victims. However, there have been a couple of cases where CPS was called, so this wouldn't be the first time.
Is the Texas Polygamist ranch just another victim of swatting? After reading about the court 'room' debacle in trying to get the kids their '5-day' hearing, I really hope not. I guess the publicity of this practice might be enough to stop this practice (Swatting) once and for all. People who do it need to go to prison for a long time.
