A former Calgary scout leader who admitted to running a brothel for pedophiles in Thailand has been sentenced in New Jersey to 25 years in prison. The federal judge on Monday said it was unlikely that John Wrenshall — who had also been convicted of sexual assault involving members of a Calgary boys’ choir in the 1990s — would overcome his desire to molest children.

Four-year-old girl drinks herself to death after her father ‘plies her with alcohol’

A four-year-old girl drank herself to death after police believe she was plied with alcohol by her father. Authorities in Georgia said the toddler died from ‘extreme’ alcohol poisoning. Her father and aunt were arrested and charged with murder after shocked doctors revealed the girl’s cause of death.

In the USA today grandparents have no legal rights to have any contact with a child once parental rights have been terminated. In fact, the law specifically states that if the parental rights are removed, the rights of the grandparents are removed along with them. This leaves many children raised by their grandparents from infancy, with no legal grandparents or any other relative with any rights to bring them up. One brave and determined grandparent from South Carolina, John Schafer, has decided that this is one law that must be changed. Outraged by the way loving grandparents are treated, he has single-handedly taken on the South Carolina State Representatives and Senators. Taking remarkable steps, he has began to make changes that could effectively change the way we view adoption forever.
