(KSL News) Texas child welfare officials have dropped supervision of an additional 54 children from the Fundamentalist Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints (FLDS).

That brings the number of FLDS children no longer being monitored by the state to more than 250, according to the Deseret News.

All of the children have been removed from state supervision because welfare workers feel they are not in danger of abuse.

They all are among the more than 460 taken off the FLDS compound in April, only to be returned six weeks later when a judge ruled Texas officials had overstepped their bounds.
