Nebraska Says Never Mind: Stripper Can Get Her Million Dollars Back - 1 views

  •  
    "The government had appealed after a federal judge in July ordered it to return $1.07 million to 35-year-old Tara Mishra, of Rancho Cucamonga, Calif. Mishra said the cash was her life savings earned over years as an exotic dancer. Government lawyers had claimed the money was connected to illegal drugs, but offered no proof."

    Well..... You can't really take money from someone accumulated illegally without proof. The amount is concerning though. I think they should probably go through her employment records just to confirm she is being honest.
  •  
    That's not fair they can just take someone's money away like that. Although it was a large amount, they should have looked into the case other than taking her money, especially if she wasn't under the influence of drugs and nothing was suspicious except the amount.

    She's either an amazing exotic dancer or there's some side business but you never know, they shouldn't have taken her money without further evidence and proof.

    I'm sorry, but this is wrong on so many levels. This is disturbing and just plain out gross. The guy should be placedi n jail.
  •  
    woooooooooow.
  •  
    Who would trust this guy as a counselor.? He doesn't even look friendly or welcoming like a counselor should. I would like to know how the kids got in there and how he knew to have the video camera on at that time? This is just ridiculous though! I can't believe it!

Alabama Denies DNA Test To Potentially Innocent Man On Death Row | ThinkProgress - 5 views

  •  
    In a case that has already cost the state of Alabama millions wouldn't you want to get it right? Is Alabama too proud? I don't understand the decision to not allow a drug test especially if that test doesn't cost the state any more money.

    This is ridiculous. I joined the fight to stop Kony once and for all.
  •  
    STOP KONY! He needs to be stopped. I have read so much about this in the past couple days & the story is very inspiring. We all need to do our part and take action to help as much as we can. Or at least whatever we can do to help.
  •  
    ironic that he was an alter boy. He's been free to do as he pleases so far, i dont forsee him coming to a halt anytime soon
  •  
    I think it's good that everyone is coming together to finally stop Kony. We can all help play a part in is capturing, support and getting the word out is enough.
