APPEAL FROM THE MILLER
COUNTY CIRCUIT COURT,
[NO. JV-2008-262-1]
HONORABLE JOE E. GRIFFIN,
JUDGE
AFFIRMED
D. P. MARSHALL JR., Judge
Alphonso Reid appeals from an order adjudicating his daughters, A.R. and
C.R., dependent-neglected after DHS took them and other children into emergency
custody from the Tony Alamo Christian Ministries compound in Fouke, Arkansas, in
September 2008. At this adjudication hearing, the circuit court also heard the evidence
concerning the daughters of Brian Broderick, and it considered some video-deposition
testimony that another circuit court admitted at an adjudication hearing for the
daughters of Greg Seago.
The circuit court adjudicated Reid’s and Broderick’s daughters dependentneglected for the same reasons, and it imposed the same requirements on Reid as it did
on Broderick. The circuit court hearing the Seago case made similar findings and

reached the same result. Today, we are affirming the circuit courts’ decisions in the
appeals brought by Seago and Broderick. For the same reasons expressed in those
opinions, we affirm the circuit court’s decision finding Reid’s daughters dependentneglected.
Affirmed.
VAUGHT, C.J., and GLADWIN, J., agree.
