    Don't let your teenage daughters go to house parties with teenage boys where alcohol is served! … The parents of all the teens at the party are responsible as they should know where their teens are and what they are doing…. The parents of the house party are criminally responsible imo. Cut the teenage boy lose as he's already spent his senior year of high school in jail…

    Three Illinois Prison Guards Sodomized A 65 Year
    Old Inmate To Death – Their Trial Continues To Be Delayed – 3 Years Later
    There’s Still No Justice  Larry Earvin, suffered multiple broken ribs, a punctured colon, and
    other serious internal injuries, and died in June 2018. The indictment alleges
    that each defendant falsified incident reports to omit any reference to the
    assault and that they misled agents of the Illinois State Police by denying any
    knowledge of the assault of Earvin that each participated in and witnessed

    White Privilege at its worse. If this guy was a non white person he would have been punished to the fullest extent of the law. And for anyone who says otherwise, you are either in deep denial or u r a straight up liar…

    I'm not angry nor outraged. I think it's about time. We're not the same as neb but we are equal in human value and responsibility. She was partially responsible and she should make better decisions.

    It's facts that most of the time women lie about being assaulted. This is just daddy's little girl trying to protect her image.

    I'm sorry, but that judge deserves to have happen to him what happened to her. Only then will someone so devoid of empathy understand.
