How does this happen?

They can't LEGALLY be married. So, technically, no matter what they call themselves, they're really just guys living with a lot of women and having a lot of children.

How does it become illegal?
Polygamy is one of the unknowns. It isnt illegal by law of man or church because you are not breaking any laws by it nor can you legaly get married to more then 1. I for one absolutly hate these people, its complete brainwash and bs. And the removal of the kids on the basis of "competition" for women makes me kinda sick.
