Alexander Black+FollowBedbound Gran Gets Convicted Over Unused CarCan you believe an 84-year-old woman, stuck in bed and unable to leave her room, was actually convicted for not insuring a car she’ll never drive again? She’d already handed in her license and sold the car, but still got caught up in a fast-track court system. Her heartfelt letter explaining her situation didn’t stop the conviction. How wild is that? The system really needs a rethink for vulnerable folks like her! #Cars #justice #elderlycare00Share
hessstephen+FollowThe Bodega That Sold Nothing but CashThe corner store had dusty shelves and expired canned beans, yet its EBT transaction volume rivaled a busy supermarket. How? A customer walks in, grabs nothing, and approaches the counter. The clerk swipes the EBT card for $200. The register beeps. The clerk hands the customer $100 in cash and keeps the remaining $100 as a "fee." No goods ever leave the store. This is called "trafficking." The store owner pockets thousands in profit every month until the data analytics flag the impossible sales volume. When the raid happens, the neighborhood loses its only (albeit corrupt) store. #SmallBusiness #Fraud #Corruption #Neighborhood #Justice01Share
familyFIRST+Follow10-Year-Old Disabled Girl Became The First Student In Class To Expose Teacher's Sexual Abuse.I came across this story and it still blows my mind. When she was about ten years old, she had a truly awful teacher. He punished the boys by hitting their fingers with a big ruler. But what he did to the girls was much worse. He would pinch their inner thighs in front of everyone. The girl was handicapped and could only use her left arm. When the teacher called her up for punishment, she refused to take the girl's punishment. She told him she wanted the boy's punishment instead and stuck out her usable arm. When he refused, she calmly looked him in the eye and called him a disgusting pedophile in front of the entire class. Of course the teacher got extremely angry. He shouted at her to go to the principal, but the girl just waited in the hall. Soon her French teacher came by to taunt her for being a bad student. The girl told her why she was sent out and the French teacher got really pale. It turned out the French teacher's own daughter was in that class and was also a victim. She rushed into the classroom and started a huge fight. When the girl's parents heard what happened, her father went to the school and made sure the teacher was dealt with. The pedophile ended up only being suspended for a month, but he never dared to touch another girl again. It's crazy to me that this ten-year-old handicapped girl was the only one in a class of thirty healthy students brave enough to stand up to him. And that girl is my mother. She is the strongest person I have ever known. *** This mother is truly a badass. Hats off to her for being so brave and fighting for what was right. I wish all the sex offenders would go straight to hell. #FamilyStories #Mom #BadassWomen #TrueStory #ChildhoodMemories #Justice #Inspiration 6901575Share
