Woman Who Placed Phony Call About The Texas Polygamists Skedaddles, Warrant Issued
From the article I gather that the warrant isn’t for the phony call that caused so much misery for so many people, but for not showing up in court for violating her probation.
What was she on probation for? For two other cases of false reporting of crimes:
COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo.—The Colorado woman alleged to have sparked the raid on the polygamous FLDS ranch in Texas with bogus tips may be on the run.
On Monday, an arrest warrant was issued for Rozita Swinton after she failed to show up for a court hearing on charges of violating her probation for one of two other false-reporting cases against her, court administrator Lori McKager told Salt Lake City’s 2News.
Swinton is accused of violating her probation stemming from her 2007 guilty plea for telling police she was a 16-year-old girl who was suicidal after giving birth.
Authorities have linked her to a phone number used to call a Texas crisis center thought to have triggered an April raid where more than 460 children were removed from the Fundamentalist Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints’ Yearning for Zion ranch in Eldorado, Texas.
I’m wondering why she hasn’t been charged with Texas call as well.
