My Mom's Boyfriend I Called Dad Since I Was 3
This case was technically recent though for me it’s been 14 year of heck. I got out at 18, turned him in, my mom and siblings initially sided with him. (One being his victim as well she was only 16 at the time). I lost my case in Barton county mo and turned down kc no offer to prosecute based on supporting evidence. Their argument was that he would not pay for a prom dress and I was mad (?) idk he as all over with try’s. It was the other victims being young and denying out of fear that solidified my loss. Years later he would be caught with his biological grand daughter, this reopened my case. 4 years later after and even a day of being on stand with a jury present for 8 hours of triggering evidence, he would be found guilty, I feel free. But not enough to let my guard down as he has promised my death since I was about 3 if I spoke. I feel like he should be seen for what he is.

I have a case number. The only news link is this but the investigation was still ongoing at the time of the interview. We have found over 80+ guns.
"We have found over 80+ guns." It is not possible to have a number that is over 80+. "80+" include the number 80 and every number greater than 80. If anyone thinks it is possible, then I challenge you to give an example of a number that is over 80+.

Skull Found In David Attenborough's Garden Was Victorian M****r Victim Who Was Cut Up And Boiled To Feed Street Children
A skull discovered in David Attenborough’s back garden belonged to the victim of a gruesome Victorian m****r, a coroner has ruled.
Widow Julia Martha Thomas, 55, was attacked in 1879 by her maid Kate Webster who pushed her down the stairs, then strangled her, chopped up her body, boiled it and gave the dripping to local children to eat.
Webster was tried and sent to the gallows but the skull lay undiscovered until October last year when workmen at TV naturalist Sir David’s £1.5million home dug it up while building an extension.

I have a strong stomach, and I've read/watched/listened to tons of true crime media because forensic science is one of my special interests, especially forensic psychiatry. I'm not exaggerating when I'm saying this is one of the most vile cases I've ever researched. I won't go into too much detail, but at some point this girl's body practically started decomposing while she was still alive from all the physical trauma she's endured, and she begged her captors to kill her already. The head of the group was an 18 y/o male who was sentenced to 20 years in prison, the other three guys were still legal minors and received prison sentences between 5 and 9 years.

I genuinely don't understand the hatred that motivates racism. What is the rational that makes someone hate a person based on race? I know I sound naïve. I accept it exists and it is life threatening in countries worldwide but why would you kill a classmate because you hated their race so much?
