In reply to the discussion: Judge orders forfeiture of Texas polygamist ranch [View all]Major Nikon
(36,925 posts)65. I'm not interested in doing your research
But I suspect none of them are. If the crimes don't qualify for criminal forfeiture, then no property is going to be seized. There also has to be a nexus between the crime and the property. In the case of the FLDS kiddie diddlers, they purchased the property for kid diddling. They also used laundered money to buy it.

Have you ever heard of a polygamist community not run by right-wing nut jobs? I haven't.
