Tragedy in Puerto Rico
Story from Latitude 38 of a young pregnant woman raped and murdered.

That sucks. My heart goes out to the family & friends. I lived in PR for 3 1/2 years- nice people, beautiful island.

After reading the story- I feel incredibly sad. She deserved better.



ETA: Missed an earlier thread about her death-

There is a new site opening soon www.theratbook.com This is a name and shame site. I think it is only in Britain at the moment. The sooner it go's worldwide the better. I agree with any site that keeps them monsters of our streets. My heart goes out to the family. God bless
