Why did no one notice the boy was missing? - CNN.com - 1 views

www.cnn.com/...index.html
shared by Samantha Montalvo on 23 May 11 - No Cached
  • He was 13 years old -- was no one aware, over the course of two years, that he seemed to have simply vanished?
    • Samantha Montalvo
      Samantha Montalvo on 23 May 11
       
      I don't understand how no one knew he was missing for 2 whole years. I could see a couple weeks maybe even a few months, but 2 years is unbelievable.
  • She said this meant that caseworkers were not looking into the child's situation during the immediate period leading up to his death
    • Samantha Montalvo
      Samantha Montalvo on 23 May 11
       
      I think the caseworkes should be charged with something also, because if they would have done their job this boy might still have been alive.
  • he said he missed his mother and wanted to live with her.
    • Samantha Montalvo

      I don't understand why he got taken from his mother in the first place, this article doesn't say.

  • The boy began to be punished almost immediately
    • Samantha Montalvo
      Samantha Montalvo on 23 May 11
       
      I don't understand if this boy was troubled and deserved stern punishments, or the family is just evil.
  • Christian was made to live inside a used metal dog cage. He allegedly was repeatedly struck and kicked by both his father and stepmother. When Christian tried to escape from the dog cage, his father reportedly secured it with seven locks. The keys were kept near the father's computer, where he was said to enjoy playing video games about racing while his son struggled in the cage.
    • Samantha Montalvo
      Samantha Montalvo on 23 May 11
       
      This is so sad, how could a father do these things to his own child. They are inhumane and his father deserves the worse punishment possible!
  • Sometimes Christian's hands were chained to the top of the cage; during one such occasion, according to the affidavit, he was crying, so his stepmother, as additional punishment, spray-painted his chained hands black. His health had started to deteriorate, and he had begun to soil himself, so he was kept naked except for a diaper. The only baths he was permitted were with ice-cold water, which made him scream.
    • Samantha Montalvo
      Samantha Montalvo on 23 May 11
       
      Again, I don't understand how you could put a child through all of this for no apparent reason at all. They all deserve the worse punishments possible! I hope they get the death penalty or life in prison with no food!
  • "He needs to be locked up. He's a dog."
    • Samantha Montalvo
      Samantha Montalvo on 23 May 11
       
      They are monsters!
  • In April of 2009, according to the affidavit, after Christian was too ill to eat, his father "punched him with full force several times in the front, side and back of his head before throwing him back in the cage."
    • Samantha Montalvo
      Samantha Montalvo on 23 May 11
       
      If he was this sick, why would his father punch him or even hurt him. If anything he should have helped him, but he's a cold hearted monster.
  • How could a boy live and die, his cries unheard, and have no one be aware of it? How could he be dead for two years and have no one looking for him?
    • Samantha Montalvo
      Samantha Montalvo on 23 May 11
       
      This is one of the saddest things, for two whole years is really unbelieveable.
  • It was the biological mother who, this spring, told police she suspected something bad had happened to Christian.
    • Samantha Montalvo
      Samantha Montalvo on 23 May 11
       
      I'm glad to hear she finally said something. I honestly think she should have said something sooner though because if she hadn't talked to her child in more than 6 months she should have suspected something then.

  • A Las Vegas art coordinator's planned charity sale of serial killer John Wayne Gacy's paintings is under fire from the very crime victims group that is supposed to benefit from the proceeds.
    • Samantha Montalvo
      Samantha Montalvo on 18 May 11
       
      I don't understand why they would even make a charity having anything to do with him.
  • The National Center for Victims of Crime is demanding that its name not be associated with the exhibit, entitled "Multiples: The Artwork of John Wayne Gacy," saying it did not agree to be a beneficiary of the sale.
    • Samantha Montalvo
      Samantha Montalvo on 18 May 11
       
      I don't see the point in having the charity but not wanting the name being associated with John Wayne Gacy. If its his artwork and benefits are going to families of victims, buyers have the right to know where the artwork came from.
  • After his execution in 1994, his attorney auctioned off his artwork.
    • Samantha Montalvo
      Samantha Montalvo on 18 May 11
       
      It makes no sense to me why anyone would want to buy the artwork made from a serial killer.

  • Some of it was purchased and destroyed in a bonfire attended by 300 people, including some family members of Gacy's victims.
    • Samantha Montalvo
      Samantha Montalvo on 18 May 11
       
      Im glad that after it was purchased it was destroyed in a bonfire. No one should have that or display it anywhere.
  • Myles said the proceeds would be divided evenly among the charities. If the crime victims group doesn't want the money, Myles said he would find another organization to donate the proceeds.
    • Samantha Montalvo
      Samantha Montalvo on 18 May 11
       
      I think they should have just destroyed all the artwork in the first place, because if the victims family members did not agree to have a charity made for them, then they artwork should have been destroyed in the first place.
  • "I think anyone would be pretty creeped out by it,"
    • Samantha Montalvo
      Samantha Montalvo on 18 May 11
       
      I agree with this statement, with the exception of the sick people who believe John Wayne Gacy did no harm.

Alleged rape, killing of gay rights campaigner sparks call for action - CNN.com - 0 views

shared by Samantha Montalvo on 06 May 11 - No Cached
  • A 24-year-old who was stabbed to death in South Africa is the victim of "corrective rape," gay rights activists said Thursday, a crime where men attack lesbians in an attempt to reverse their sexual orientation.
    • Samantha Montalvo
      Samantha Montalvo on 06 May 11
       
      I don't understand why men would actually think raping women would convert their sexuality.
  • She was raped, stabbed with broken glass several times and her face pummelled with rocks, Human Rights Watch said.
    • Samantha Montalvo
      Samantha Montalvo on 06 May 11
       
      I don't understand why they raped and messed her face up. They believe that raping them will convert their sexuality, so why did they stab and kill her.
  • Earlier this week, the nation's Justice Ministry set up a task force to address hate crimes against lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender South Africans.
    • Samantha Montalvo
      Samantha Montalvo on 06 May 11
       
      They should have been made this organization, so something like this wouldn't have happened.

  • "Her attack is a case of corrective rape," said gay rights activist Lydia Kunu. "Neighbors said they heard her attackers telling her, 'We will take the lesbian out of you. ' They were mocking her and asking her why she acts like a man."
    • Samantha Montalvo
      Samantha Montalvo on 06 May 11
       
      It's not just a corrective rape, it is also a murder. The definition of rape does not include murder. Just because women act like men does not mean men have the right to do things like this to women.
  • The death has sparked renewed calls for action as rights groups warn of escalated homophobic attacks.
  • Mthathi said it is hard to get an overall number of the people subjected to violence because attacks go unreported over the distrust for the judicial system.
    • Samantha Montalvo
      Samantha Montalvo on 06 May 11
       
      I can definately understand why so many cases go unheard of because no one can be trusted or helped.
  • The use of the term "corrective rape" started three years ago after the rape and murder of Eudy Simelane, a well-known soccer player who lived openly as a lesbian.
    • Samantha Montalvo
      Samantha Montalvo on 06 May 11
       
      If this kind of situation happened three years ago something should have been done about it then, not waited until it happened again.
  • "It is our responsibility to provide safety, and we take that job seriously,"
    • Samantha Montalvo
      Samantha Montalvo on 06 May 11
       
      They say this but they haven't done anything to start to end this violence.
  • The new task force is scheduled to start working in July. It will address issues such as whether police and social workers should undergo sensitivity training, and whether rapists who target sexual minorities should get harsher sentences.
    • Samantha Montalvo
      Samantha Montalvo on 06 May 11
       
      They absolutely should get harsher punishments.

    • Samantha Montalvo
      Samantha Montalvo on 04 May 11
       
      I don't understand why people would want to "reenact" this horrible situation. If they truely understood what Jesus went through, why put another human being through this.
  • A man wearing only underwear, with a wound on the side of his torso and nylon strings tied around his neck, arms and stomach, was found crucified Sunday
    • Samantha Montalvo
      Samantha Montalvo on 04 May 11
       
      This is really sad that a man really had to suffer all of this, whoever did it probably wanted to send a message, but this a horible way to send it.
  • Police are waiting for a forensic report to determine the exact time and cause of the man's death and whether it was a homicide or suicide.
    • Samantha Montalvo
      Samantha Montalvo on 04 May 11

      Even if he told somebody or people to help him kill himself I don't understant why they would listen to him and help because it is just morally wrong and they are putting themselves in the sitaution to be charged with assisted suicide.

  • The father, who called 911, told police he was trying to take the firearm away from the child when it discharged.
    • Samantha Montalvo
      Samantha Montalvo on 27 Apr 11
       
      I don't understand why the gun wasn't on some type of safety mode.
  • What we do know is that last Wednesday, shortly after 7 o'clock, we received a 911 call from a gentleman stating that his 2-1/2-year-old son accidentally shot his mother
    • Samantha Montalvo
      Samantha Montalvo on 27 Apr 11
       
      It is really hard to believe that a two and a half year old is capable of shooting and killing his mother with a gun, or any other object.
  • "My son picked it up and I tried to grab it," the man said about the gun. "Oh God, I can't believe this."
    • Samantha Montalvo
      Samantha Montalvo on 27 Apr 11
       
      This situation must be really hard for the father, because there is that chance that investigators will nor believe him that his son shot her, they might try to say that he shot her and is trying to blame it on his son.

      This is true, the fact that it even happened and that is happened during court.
  • "He goes, 'I'm not going to pay child support,' and Judge Rothschild says, 'You know all parents have to pay child support, we all have to support our children,' and he (Gonzalez) stalked out of the room," said Dunleavy. "He went calmly," remembered Judge Rothschild, "not happily, but calmly walked out of chambers, took one step out of the door, then in a blink of an eye -- I mean literally one step -- he came back in." Upon returning, Gonzalez suddenly started punching his estranged wife, according to those in the chambers.
    • Samantha Montalvo
      Samantha Montalvo on 20 Apr 11
       
      This is so sad that he did this to the mother of his child regardless of their dispute. If his child finds out what he did his child could lose all his repsect for his father.
  • A bailiff was not in the room at the time. The judge said if he had had any indication that Gonzalez was violent, he would have had security in his chambers.
    • Samantha Montalvo
      Samantha Montalvo on 20 Apr 11
       
      No matter what, there should always be security in the courtroom regardless of whether the judge thinks people are violent or not.
  • Violence is not OK any where but it is certainly not OK in the court of law in the United States of America."
    • Samantha Montalvo
      Samantha Montalvo on 20 Apr 11
       
      I think he should have thought about this fact before hand and maybe this wouldn't have happened.

      This is really sad that a mother could really kill her children. I don't understand any reason in the world to do something so horrible like this.

      The fact that she planned this makes it all so much worse! This woman should be given the death penalty.

      I don't agree with this statement because it's not like he was a completely innocent man that was thrown in jail for no reason. It seems like e had trouble very early on in his life.

      I don't see how this case is going to be an uphill battle because it seems like it's all self-explanatory. He's guitly of all the charges made against him. He should just be sent to jail.

      This is why I said he probably had trouble very early on in life and right here proves it because he started off in a juvenile center than straight to a regular prison.
