Okay, it is my understanding from previous press releases that there was enough hard evidence for charges and for removal of the children. The court date is July 2 at 1:30. BUT there has to be enough evidence to make the charges "stick" in order to indict. Once there is an indictment, then there is a court date to determine guilt or innocence. So, the court date of July 2 is important to the story, was there enough evidence to indict?
