In fact, they've been pretty tolerant of illegal behavior (guised under religious freedom) by allowing the group to practice polygamy right under their noses for quite some time.
I don't think they are overreaching. It would be very hard for anyone to believe that any family living on that compound site was NOT endorsing polygamy. Especially with men involved......
