I started a new thread, since the "other cult" thread was about the one in New Mexico.
House of Yahweh is (unfortunately) located in Abilene, Texas. This is where I live too. The man who runs it is a former patrol officer from APD. His name was Buffalo Bill Hawkins.(Would sane parents name their baby "Buffalo'?) He was fired in the eighties for having beer in his patrol car, so he decided to change his name to Yisrayl and become a cult leader instead. The man is a total nut-job.
The cult's compound is located just outside of Abilene, in the mostly rural community of Clyde. Some of the cultists live there, and some live in trailer-homes here in Abilene and around Lake Ft. Phantom (about 7-10 miles outside town). Normal people who own properties adjacent to Yahweh homes have observed that there are apparently tunnels connecting the lake-homes, since Buffalo Bill seems to pop up one place or another without anyone having seen him make the journey. The windows are completely covered too.
Not long ago, a 7yr old girl died after heer mom and another cult member tried to perform surgery on her at their home. They were convicted of some type of neglect but were never held responsible for the child's murder.
Here is a link to a search with stories from our local paper from as far back as September 2006.
