ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. (AP) — Authorities say four members of a New Mexico paramilitary religious sect rocked by child sexual abuse allegations have been arrested while trying to flee the state.

Cibola County Sheriff Tony Mace confirmed to The Associated Press on Thursday that the members of the Aggressive Christianity Missions Training Corps were arrested.

The Gallup Independent reports (https://goo.gl/enw239 ) that the members were arrested late Wednesday on felony warrants for failure to register the births of their 11 children.

Mace says seven children, believed to be ages 4-17, were turned over to the New Mexico Children, Youth and Families Department.

1. Make that "re-arrested."

This has been in the news here for a week or so. It's a little unusual, most cults where they screw the kiddies have stayed away from this state. Authorities take a really dim view of that sort of thing and are completely unimpressed with their god(s).
