The Eldorado Texas Fundamentalist Church Of Jesus Christ Of Latter Day Saints polygamist parents are beginning individualized custody hearings today.

Over the next three weeks the hearings will take place at the Tom Green County Courthouse where the court will decide what it is that they need to do in order to regain the custody of their children, or whether their parental rights will terminated.

The children were taken by child welfare authorities from the FLDS Eldorado Texas ranch after a 16-year-old girl going by the name of Sarah called a domestic abuse hotline claiming that she was pregnant and suffering abuse by her much older husband.

Since no such teenager was ever found authorities are considering that the calls could have been a hoax. There are currently 463 Texas FLDS children in foster care.
