Fumarase Deficiency is an enzyme irregularity that causes severe mental retardation, epileptic seizures and other cruel effects that leave children nearly helpless and unable to take care of themselves

Bad if true. The timing on the story is suspicious. You want intermarriage, try any Muslim society. Cousin/cousin is the norm. In this country, We all know about that Banjo playing Albino hillbilly.

They have no numbers on this in the story from this compound. If any of the 416 kids picked up showed symptoms of this, you can bet your bippy that the local authorities would have been trumpeting it.

Incest will do that:

Until a few years ago, scientists knew of only 13 cases of Fumarase Deficiency in the entire world. Tarby said he's now aware of 20 more victims, all within a few blocks of each other on the Utah-Arizona border. .... Tarby said there could be hundreds of victims in coming generations.

But at least their moms care for them well.

The children require constant care from parents and close relatives. "In some ways, they are really kind of remarkable people," Tarby said. "They do treat these kids pretty well."

.......
Tarby said the children are a financial burden on taxpayers ....

Why should they be any different.
