MD- “TEACHER PLEADS GUILTY TO SEX WITH STUDENT’!
The 4th District Court of Appeal in Santa Ana called the petition an “unprecedented, meritless effort by a stranger,” and ordered an Orange County probate court to vacate its order for an investigation into Suleman’s finances.
Former child actor, Paul Petersen, who’s the president of a org called “A Minor Consideration” that looks out for the financial interests of kids in movies – filed the petition. I agree with the judge’s order. There is no evidence that Nadya Suleman is a bad mother and not capable of overseeing her children’s finances. Paul Petersen and lawyer Gloria Allred, along with a lot of other people simply do not like Nadya Suleman and are hell bent on causing trouble for her.

VT- L.ESBIAN COUPLE HAVE DAUGHTER, BREAK UP, BIO MOM CONVERTS TO CHRISTIANITY & RENOUNCES H.OMOSEXUALITY, AFTER SHE REFUSED TO ALLOW EX-PARTNER TO VISIT GIRL, COURT ORDERS HER TO TRANSFER CUSTODY OF GIRL, 7, TO L.ESBIAN EX PARTNER, BIO MOM ON THE RUN – UPDATE: HEARING SET FOR JAN. 22nd TO HOLD BIO MOM IN CONTEMPT! Janet Jenkins – ex partner, Lisa Miller –bio mom, Isabella -7 First I want to say that I believe in equality for all, that includes gay marriage and adoption. It’s also unfortunate that the bio mom, Lisa Miller, is a bigot. That being said, this case could have some serious ramifications allowing stepparents to have rights to your child after you’ve divorced them. Janet Jenkins never bothered to adopt the child. She could’ve but didn’t. That makes her by definition, a stepparent. If she had adopted Isabella and Lisa Miller still refused to let her see her daughter, then it’s understandable that Miller’s rights would be revoked. But that’s not the case here. Janet Jenkins is not biologically related to the child and never adopted her. She’s a stepparent and yet this stepparent was awarded visitation rights. Do we really want stepparents in this country, be it h.omosexual or h.eterosexual, to have visitation rights to children after the bio parent divorces them??? I’m not a lawyer so I can’t say for sure, but this case could end up setting a precedent and every stepparent that’s vindictive will start filing for custody of your child.
MA- PARENTS OVERDOSED GIRL, 4, ON BIPOLAR MEDS TO KEEP HER QUIET & OUT OF THEIR WAY, ALLEGEDLY, SHE DIED – AT PRETRIAL, LAWYERS CLAIM STATE’S OWN MEDICAL REPORT SAYS GIRL COULD’VE DIED FROM PNEUMONIA & MOVE FOR DISMISSAL! Rebecca Riley, 4, Carolyn & Michael Riley The defense wants the case dismissed because they claim the grand jury was misled as to the cause of death.
A state medical examiner found that Rebecca died of a combination of Clonidine, a blood pressure medication the girl had been prescribed for attention deficit hyperactivity disorder; Depakote, an antiseizure and mood-stabilizing drug prescribed for bipolar disorder; and two over-the-counter drugs, a cough suppressant and an antihistamine. The amount of Clonidine alone in Rebecca’s system was enough to be fatal, the medical examiner said.
But the defense argues in the motion to dismiss that the report by the state’s expert, Dr. Sara Vargas, a lung specialist, supports the defense claim that she died of an acute, fast-moving pneumonia.

NOT CHILD ABUSE BUT NOTABLE:
DUBAI- BRITISH WOMAN IN HOTEL DRINKING TO CELEBRATE ENGAGEMENT, RAPED BY HOTEL WORKER – THEN JAILED FOR HAVING SEX OUTSIDE MARRIAGE WITH FIANCE! The woman is of Pakistani descent but lives in London.
When she reported to the police that she had been raped, she and her partner, 44, were themselves jailed for sex outside marriage, which is illegal under the emirate’s laws. Unmarried couples are not allowed to share hotel rooms or live together, although many establishments turn a blind eye. The couple were also charged with being drunk outside licensed premises.
Dubai just built the world’s tallest skyscraper. That’s good for tourism but when people hear about this story, nobody is going to want to go there.
