Student Loan Debt

For some people, going to college is a must and they think they will get nowhere in life without a college degree of some sort. Many people find that some of the degrees that they got ended up not helping them become successful. So people have been asking the question, is it worth it to go through all of the schooling and money to get a degree when it wont always benefit you in the future? I guess it depends on the person and their thoughts on the subject. Is it worth it to spend so much money on getting something that may or may not help you get a job. Paying back student loans takes years for most people.

Kidnapping in Cleveland

For a decade three women were kidnapped and held captive in horrible conditions. It was similar to a prison in the home in Cleveland where they were being held. The women were put into separate cell-like rooms and one of the ladies was impregnated by their kidnapper. The lady had no other option but to be forced to give birth to the baby in an inflatable kiddie pool. Six years later they finally were found while they screamed until the neighbors heard them and kicked down the door. The police found that it the kidnapper and sexual abuser was actually three different people, three brothers. They brothers have been taken into custody and their sentencing is being determined soon.

Shooting In Ohio

Recently there was a shooting in Cincinnati. Most often the shoot kills others in the school and then attempts suicide. But in this case the 17-year old boy pulled out a gun in the front of his class room at an all boys Catholic school and shot himself in the head. As of Tuesday the boy was still alive but in a very bad state. There were about 21 other students in the class room when he shot himself. 21 people who will be scarred for lives and their innocence was taken from them. The boy was so quick with the gun that there wasn't enough time for anyone to reach him and stop him. The teacher heard a student yell but when he looked up the gun was already to his head.

Officers Impregnated By Gang Members

At the Maryland Prison four female officers were impregnated by the leaders of gangs in the prison. Apparently the gang member was using the officers to smuggle in and out drugs, money and other things. One of the gang leaders name was Tavon. Two of the female officers got new tattoos, one got it on their neck and the other on their wrist. They both got the name "Tavon" tattooed on them. Apparently male officers were also helping with the smuggling of illegal things in and out of the prison. It came to a total of 13 females and 2 males that all had charges pressed against them. This is one screwed up prison.

Prison Sentences Reduced In Syria

On Tuesday afternoon in Syria there were some changes made by the president, Bashar Assad. Assad made the decision that some of the people in prison who were considered terrorists would have their sentences shortened. Assad extended this change in the rules to some other convicted criminals as well. Assad shortened their sentences by 75%. Apparently Assad has made quite a few changes in Syria lately, so this wasn't the first. He has a pattern of letting people off easy right before national holidays I guess. Not many people see this as a problem or weird. They don't think it is the beginning of an uprising or any sort of thing. But something seems a little odd about all of this.

Background Checks and Gun Control

Recently there was an experiment done where a man would go through gun shows and buy as many guns as he could. The sellers did no background checks and only asked for cash. They would sell him the gun on the spot. Yet they were not breaking the law. Should there be more laws against this? Michelle Obama definitely thinks so. She spoke out about gun control and it sounds like she believes that it should be harder to be able to own a gun. I am right behind her and agree that there should at least be background checks when purchasing a weapon.

Murder in Door County

On Monday April 1, 2013 there was dead body found in the Gibraltar High School parking lot. A 17-year old boy had been run over with a car and left to bleed to death. Our source checked in with the school and they got it all on camera. Apparently there was a fight going on between a girl and the boy and she got in her car and chased him around the parking lot for a while before finally running him over, and then going back to run him over again. But what were they fighting about? Apparently the girl had asked the boy to prom and he said no and chose to go with another girl. The girl got angry and started a fight and tried to convince him to go with her and when he refused to she got in her car and ran him over. The girl hasn't been seen since Monday night, her parents said she never came home.
