Seems a little harsh, considering no one has been convicted. Hang on their tiger.
Great work by Antioch Police Department.
Prayers for the children abused by these horrible men.
Praying for ALL of those affected by this situation.
Who says families don’t do things together? String both of these creeps up by their… thumbs
Sometimes the law. Please see the definition for due process.
