Reflection

Why would this young man commit such things? I for one am very disappointed ant Tony farmer who could have had a successful future, but chose not to. As said by Brigham Young, “True Independence and Freedom Can Only Exist In Doing What Is Right.” This young man decided to do what is wrong and has “willingly” relinquished his freedom by committing improper and devious actions. I cannot stop thinking on how he could have avoided this disastrous situation.

No bed, No room, Just a bathroom

Summary

Today I read an article which focused on a child who had been locked up in a restroom for six years and was only allowed to exit the bathroom when she commuted to school. The little girl has been “living” in the bathroom since she was three years old. Her grandparents, Brian G. hart, 50, and Rivae L. Hart, 49, were arrested on charges of kidnapping (a first degree felony punishable by up to ten years in prison) and third degree felony (child endangerment punishable by up to five years in prison.)The motives behind the imprisonment of the girl are unclear as stated by Dayton Sgt. Larry Tolphin. Sgt. Larry Tolphin also stated that, “The child’s conditions were deplorable.” The child was only given a cot and a blanket (no pillow) to sleep with.

Reflection

These are cruel and malevolent individuals who deserve to be in prison for what is left of their lives. Why would they do such a thing to an innocent child they are clearly soulless, they did not feed the child on a regular basis nor did they even treat her with an ounce of respect. The child who is now nine years old will be traumatized and it is the fault of her own grandparents who should be ashamed of themselves and not be allowed any freedom!
