I was completely uneducated on the issue as far as what victims have to deal with when it comes to speaking up about their assault. In addition, the report has to undergo military and civilian court therefore the process is very lengthy and tedious. It reminds me a lot like what civilians have to go through with domestic violence. Victims of military sexual trauma could get discourage of the process, in addition to feeling threaten by their perpetrator…

the victim becomes a perpetual and unending target of negative behaviour. Social media is also often used for bullying purposes due to the viral nature and common use of these platforms by people around the same age group. Negative comments can be left on a victim's Facebook wall leading to the bullying becoming widespread knowledge among people who can see the victim's wall and potentially extending the number of people bullying the victim. Thus, cyberbullying extends to the homes of victims,…

Every day after school, Maria sold bread by the side of the road to supplement her family’s limited income. When business was slow, Maria met Sophia, a 35 year old, became friends with her and eventually left on a trip with her. On the day of the trip, Sophia gave Maria a drink that made her unconscious. When she awoke, she was in a taxi on her way to an unfamiliar restaurant. When they arrived, Sophia sent her to go get cleaned up, come back, and then sent her off in the taxi with 3 other girls…

the author, Elliot C. McLaughlin, chooses to briefly describe the incident that occurs before writing the backstory of the victims killed. McLaughlin chooses to write in-depth report praising two of the three victims instead of covering the key facts of what occurred (McLaughlin). Obviously, this has a specific effect on the reader because they will sympathize with the victims, turning Robert Dear into more of a monster-type character instead of a human. Although, this is still considered a…

According to the American Humane Association, this shows that the child becomes independent at an early age, and tends to push others away, because they are afraid they will be abandoned yet again. As an adult, child abuse victims don’t know where to go (2014). They haven’t had support or love from others and new emotions may be scary to them. Many can’t afford to get extra schooling. Therefore making money is difficult as well. Money making could be a stress factor.…

Human Trafficking is an action or practice of illegally transporting people from one area to another. Which is typically for the purpose of forced labor or sexual abuse. It harms our communities and it endangers the lives of those who become victims. It can take place right around the corner at a neighbor's house. Trafficking thrives on secrecy, to stop it the more people that know, the more help that people can give to prevent it. The law enforcement should stop human trafficking by making a…

The photographs taken from the Franklin home were released by the Los Angeles Police Department last week. The women’s faces in the photos looked like they were unconscious, asleep, or dead. These women were mothers, daughters, and sisters who had families that will never get their loved ones back. It was a abhorrent case that is part of history today. Women left behind children, spouses, and families. I cannot imagine what the women who were captured by this Lonnie Franklin. At this time the…

law to protect people, bullies are able to continue to emotionally hurt a person. There has to be a federal law in all states to help stop the disturbing behavior that the bully is bringing onto the victim. Bullies are insecure people, and make themselves feel superior, they bully others. The victims that are dealing with harassment have essentially no voice if there is not a law to stop this behavior. Bullying is a worldwide issue and there is not a reason for it to continue to happen. If a…
