In the News This Morning


See link to news story below.

A dad roughed up a kid
caught alone in a car with his daughter.
Increasingly frequent tale:
met him on Facebook,
didn’t tell the little prick 
she was 13.

Two sons went along to help.
What they found and saw and heard,
the stuff of older-brother nightmares.

If the nimrod’s rich enough
he’ll sue for entrapment,
assault, libel. 
Probably win, too.

No computer? Just try it.
Window alarms? Intrusive.
Convent school? Now there’s a thought…

It’s what keeps grandmothers awake at night,
Listening for sounds that aren’t there.

  1. She told him she was 16 - he's not too smart either. Still rape.

  2. Yes, I was pleased that she admitted to that. Hard to protect someone who doesn't want protection, but hopefully everyone concerned learned a lesson!
