Company associated with polygamous religious group accused of violating child labor laws

Investigators found 22 employees ages 14 and 15 years old were working more than 46 hours per week and were allowed to begin work after midnight.

"I dropped out of school and started working the night shift for their answering service," said Cooper,"I was the only person in the building or not, but it was scary and I was alone.” "Oh it was not a surprise at all. The part that was so surprising is that it's taken so long," said Shanell DeRieux, also a former member of the group.

“They try to make you feel responsible for building it up and for getting things done and for putting in hard labor," said DeRieux,"But they also try to make you feel guilty for not being willing to do it for free."

🤯 Shocking sarcasm

Time to abolish child labor laws. Kids should be allowed to work.
