Idaho House Resolution No. 18 To Study Human Trafficking In Idaho

I have told some of this passed legislation, some denying that it exists, others accusing me of fabricating it. When I contacted Winston some months ago, it was in the lnowledge that a spirit of cooperation was needed to seperate fact from fiction and armed with data largely provided by apostates, the state of Idaho had shared concerns with that of Arizona, Texas and Utah authorities.

States such as Colorado, New Mexico, Montana and Wyoming had also voiced concerns after much exposure and reports in the press. In Idaho a undefined investigation in the year 2000 was occuring by a field office of the FBI near the panhandle area of Idaho. This office and agent requested information which was provided 5 years ago then denied last year by the field office in St. George. The problem was that journalist like Suzan Mazur had interviewed the FBI and in some cases had recorded the dialog to later write the story. When AP requested files via FOIA, the FBI denied the investigation and files, which countered both the testimony of witnesses, informants and members of the media who had completed earlier interviews.

By the time Idaho became concerned of the trafficking stories and rumors, more was known and documented and this included the actions of unrelated independent polygamist. Stories easily searched via GOOGLE like that of Thomas Sliwinski out of Western Montana were in the news and told of independents that dotted the western states. Sliwinski had had dealings with the FLDS when he lived near Apple Valley Utah. He lived close to those in Colonnial LeBaron in Mexico and associated with them, as well as Vance Springs in the West Utah desert which for a time was led by a Timpson spin-off. Vance Springs the location of a shoot out with the local sheriff in the early 1990's over an issue of trespass and squatting rights.

A much broader focus on independents and there association to organized groups, became a concern and has led to interest of or by several states.

The Idaho measure reads "STATING FINDINGS OF THE LEGISLATURE AND AUTHORIZING AN INTERM COMMITTEE TO STUDY HUMAN TRAFFICKING IN IDAHO"

When the question was posed how many FLDS lived in the Boundary County area of Idaho, one unnamed source said he was the only one! Winston was quoted as stating 30-40 and Debbie Palmer placed the number much higher. Like that of stories of a hunting lodge in El Dorado Texas, being lied to triggers concerns, that there is something worth hiding. On this blog I often ask questions that I believe I already have the answers too. The purpose is to test the waters of cooperation and honesty, not to confirm what has already been documented.

On the Canada blog when I questioned how many wives had Winston, I believed it was 27 counting Jane. I had heard at least two had left at Warren's orders and then assumed the numbers to be 24 or less. When Cindi or ? qualified the number at 21, this was ball park close to what was already assumed. Being that countless interviews side step the question, in a time when accuracy counts, the answer is not of any other value than the ability to answer any question honestly. In the A Dr. Phil and A current Affair episodes the question posed again, created an answer of more than 13, less than 20 or so it was recorded and broadcast. Cindi's answer of 21 is close to less than 20, but in demonstrating an honesty in leadership, under the law, 13, 20 or 21 are no more less or more illegal should that issue ever be determined.

Getting back to Idaho and resolution No. 18 issues such as Vanessa and whether she was at risk per the RCMP investigation at the time and the SHARE THE LIGHTS version of January 30th 2005, suggests that there is still a difficulty in answering questions honestly, out of a fear of ???
If authorities posing simple question in an investigation get different answers, the assumption falls back to what else is not being told?

The Legislative order is available and I suggest that some here get a copy. A thread about honesty might be a topic, one that is supported by numerous qoutes in the press. With Vanessa we could only speculate to her safety, but others now quoted knew what we as activist did not. Our accuracy was weakened by those who refused to cooperate 3 years ago, it was not that we weren't willing. Accuracy and oversight has to come from within and wanting self determination and respect is earned when simple questions get honest answers.

Canada can no longer ignore the border crossing issue and the religious charter of Canada, does not have authority over American citizens taken to Canada underage, nor the reverse to the US. This is a new and seperate issue with international ramifications. Lets see how honest we can be address concerns that already exist.
