TEXARKANA, Ark. – Arkansas authorities have taken into protective custody 21 children associated with the Tony Alamo Christian Ministries based on allegations of neglect and physical abuse.

Three children were seized Tuesday at the Texarkana courthouse, the site of custody hearings this week for six girls taken during a September raid of the evangelist's compound in Fouke.

Police took the other 18 children from two vans during a traffic stop.

1. I can't believe that cult is still operating.
When they were in California they were exposed for being charlatans who use and abuse their members for profit.

3. What some freaks will do in the name of God is pretty sick...
I hope this is the end of ol' Tony. He needs to hang up the "cloth" and leave people alone. What a freaky creep.
