Posted:
Updated:
CBS – Former NBA All-Star Alvin Robertson is one of seven people facing charges involving sexual assault and sex trafficking of a 14 year old girl. He’s accused of forcing an underaged child to have sex with him.
Investigators say the 47-year- old athlete is part of a ring that kidnapped the girl and forced her into prostitution and dancing at a strip club.
Robertson lives in San Antonio but was arrested in Arkansas. His arrest is part of an investigation that started last April.
That’s when the teenaged girl waved down a police cruiser and told officers she had been abducted from San Antonio. The girl’s parents had reported her as a runaway.
The girl eventually escaped from a 49-year-old Corpus Christi man who was her captor, as he took a shower. He has pleaded guilty to sexual assault of a child.

San Antonio Escorts: Looking back at Joel Schumacher’s St. Elmo’s Fire

Thursday, February 25th, 2010

They are interrupted by Jules who comes over to complain that she is being lumped with looking after her gravely ill step-mother, whom she names step-monster, and will probably have to pay her funeral bill. The same evening, Kirby and Kevin discuss Kirby’s love for Dale. Kevin believes love is an illusion and feels his point is proven when Billy shows up saying he cannot deal with his wife. He also later feels vindicated when Alec admits to sleeping with other women and that, until Leslie says yes, he won’t say no. Later, Kirby’s date with Dale falls through after she is called back to the hospital with an emergency.
After a shopping trip into town, Jules confronts Kevin as being gay because he never hit on her. Angered, he leaves and later runs into a local prostitute who has the exact same thoughts about him. Kevin then confesses he is in love with another woman which is why he hasn’t made a move on anybody else.

San Antonio Escorts: Social workers play detective to reunite families

Wednesday, February 17th, 2010

The case of 10 Idaho missionaries accused of kidnapping 33 children when they tried to take them to an orphanage in the Dominican Republic called attention to the “premature exodus” of Haitian children, Paul says. At least 20 of the children have living parents. The children are at an SOS home temporarily. The missionaries are in jail, awaiting the next step in their case.
At least 157 unaccompanied children have been listed.
Fontaine expects to trace the families of hundreds of children.
UNICEF, the United Nations’ children’s advocacy agency, estimates there were 380,000 orphans in Haiti before the quake. The agency estimates an additional 173,000 were restavecs, living apart from their families, doing domestic work for no pay.
Fontaine says it is too soon to estimate how many were orphaned by the disaster.
The country has a history of trafficking and exploiting children, says Lisa Laumann of Save the Children, which is working in Haiti to reunite children with their families. Unaccompanied children are the most at risk for being forced into prostitution or unpaid labor, she says.

San Antonio Escorts: Pope: “You Go to War w/ Salvation Army You Have, Not Salvation Army You Want”

Wednesday, February 17th, 2010

SAN ANTONIO, Texas — The Salvation Army was founded in 1865. Its first converts were alcoholics, heroin addicts, prostitutes and other “undesirables” unwelcome in polite Christian society. And for nearly 150 years, these undesirables have been running one of the most lucrative and scandalous charities in existence.
From 1940 through the 1970s, the Salvation Army in Australia sheltered approximately 30,000 children and acknowledged that sexual molestation may have occurred, affecting as many as 500 potential “claimants” (the term the Army uses to describe victims of its abuses who have secured legal counsel).
In December 2001, a Moscow court ruled that the Salvation Army was a “paramilitary” organization subject to expulsion when the Army jokingly told Russian officials that after it had trained Polish soldiers to commandeer septic tanks, they would invade.

San Antonio Escorts: The QueQue

Except it wasnt 1997. Allen Monroe was killed in May 2007, a detail that seems inconsequential to Rai, who couldve easily found a deed from 2002 conveying Malcolms interest to Allen in the Bexar County records. And despite his for-sure RIP status in 2009, the Citys code-compliance notices were addressed to the deceased Mr. Monroe, says attorney Eddie Bravenec, who obtained a stay on the demo and has filed an appeal.
So was the notice for a September 14, 2009, Dangerous Structures Determination Board hearing, where two police officers testified that the house is a haven for drug and prostitution activities, and was the site of a murder over a drug deal. The neighbors are afraid of retaliation from the [again, according to the City: dead] owner and his friends if they complain about this structure before the Board, one added, and an elementary school is just down the street.

San Antonio Escorts: Your friendly neighborhood pervert

Tuesday, February 9th, 2010

What you’ll likely find is that there are tons of people on those lists that don’t represent a real danger to our kids. The list includes 16 year olds who had sex with their underaged girlfriends and ended up on a lifetime registry. As she reports, “in 13 states you can end up on the registry for peeing in public. In five states, you can get on it for visiting a prostitute. Another 32 states register streakers. All in all, a study of 17,000 registered offenders by the Georgia Sex Offender Registration Review Board concluded that five percent of the people on the list were “clearly dangerous.” It also determined that just over 100 of the 17,000 (1 in 170) were actual “predators” — people who feel compelled to commit sex crimes.”

San Antonio Escorts: David Squires Urban Affairs

King would not be proud that African-Americans have abandoned the “it takes a village” approach to raising all the kids in the neighborhood and that now we are more fixated on keeping up with the Joneses and buying houses too big and cars too gaudy, making us easy marks for the big banks.
And he would not be proud that many of our women and men spend as much as $3,000 to have other people’s hair — and sometimes fake hair — affixed to their heads.
King would not be too proud that Democrats and Republicans continue to bicker over superficial issues, such as whether Obama has a “Negro dialect,” but not work jointly to solve real problems, such as medical care, child care and a decent job for all Americans.
King would not be proud of those who call themselves ministers but are nothing more than pimps in the pulpit, and he would be ashamed that so-called men of the cloth such as Pat Robertson would pass judgment on a grief-stricken nation such as Haiti in its greatest hour of need.

San Antonio Escorts: Some Focus on the Modern Slave Trade During MLK Day

Tuesday, January 19th, 2010

Almost 47 years have passed since Martin Luther King, Jr. made his famous “I have a dream” speech. The United states and the world have made major strides since that time, but human trafficking still has millions enslaved today.
Chair of the Flathead Valley Martin Luther King Day Community Celebration Reverend Darryl Kistler says, “27 million is almost a number that is beyond anything we can think about. That would be taking every person in Montana and multiplying us by 27 and that’s how many people are involved or enslaved by human trafficking.”
According to the U.S. State Department, trafficking exists in every single U.S. state and around the globe. Between 14,500 and 17,500 people are brought to the U.S. every single year under false pretences. Many are forced into prostitution, manual labor, and other services.

San Antonio Escorts: Cow Saves White-tailed Deer’s Life

George’s arrival was a blessing in disguise. One morning during a walk-about to check on the resident animals – there he was, just a few hours old. Confused by this, having all altered males and one unaltered female, PPI staff suspected that a bull from the George Strait owned San Antonio Rose Palace jumped the fence at some point and mated with Daisy. Without giving it much thought, the new arrival was appropriately named George Strait, Jr.
PrimarilyPrimates.org cares for approximately 350 primates, 61 of which are chimpanzees, and a variety of other nonhuman animals. Each animal who resides there has his or her own story. Some were brought there by private owners who admit they could no longer care for them, while others have a more horrifying past. From being used for vaccine research, space training and testing protocols by the United States Air Force, to even Wanda who was found in a brothel.

San Antonio Escorts: Mammograms become political weapon

Monday, December 14th, 2009

… An overwhelming 90% of you responded ‘no’; you do not think women between the ages of 40-49 should be denied access to life-saving mammograms. This Task Force features prominently in the health care legislation being considered by the Senate, and its recommendations will carry tremendous weight under any government takeover of healthcare,” a message on Kirk’s blog read several days later.
But even as Republicans raced to blast the task force recommendations, they also found themselves on the defensive.
Democrats snickered after incumbent Sen. David Vitter, a conservative Republican facing a potentially tough 2010 re-election bid, recently cast one of two GOP votes for a Democratic amendment requiring insurance companies to cover breast cancer screenings – even as the legislation came under fire from abortion opponents, who said the amendment could lead to an expansion of coverage for abortions.
John Maginnis, a Louisiana political analyst, said the vote made sense for Vitter, whose support from women sunk after he was tied to a Washington prostitution ring in 2007.
