Now let’s do something a little different. I thought for this blog I would do something different, now lately all I am seeing on the news and social media is kids as young as 10 years old are going out and stealing cars, money, etc, or they are robbing the elderly and bashing them to the point that some have passed away. May they rest in peace. I would like to know what the hell is going on with the youth crime these days. I remember when I was a kid there wasn’t crime like there is now days. You may of heard of some young adults stealing but now like it is now. When these young people go out and do these crimes, they are stealing cars and going for joy rides which lead to police chases at high speeds, or their joy ride turns into someone being killed in that car. They also like to post on social media what they are doing, some of the dangers stunts they do with the stolen cars, flash money that they have stolen. And they are stealing from family’s who have worked for these cars an...

Easter Holidays.  Welcome back to my blog. It's the Easter Holidays and the end of term 1 for school. It's hard to found things to do with your kids during the holidays and so far, it's been a wet and cold holiday. So, what is there to do, well we have gone and checked out a place for kids to have fun an enjoy some time out of the house and away from their phone.  We went and checked it out just before the school holiday's, it's an indoor skatepark place in Ipswich called RampAttack. No matter how old you are, beginner or pro. It's an amazing time and its cheap. So, no matter if its wet and cold outside you can go to RampAttack and have heaps of fun, you can just roll over the jumps or if you are able to drop in on the tallest street ramp you can go and have some fun doing jumps into a foam pit. I'm not a pro more like a beginner but it's still a lot of fun. And everyone that goes there is very friendly and welcoming, the staff is amazing. They also have...

Central Park Five Part 2. Matias Reyes He was already serving 33.5-year sentence for an unrelated crime when he admitted to being behind the Central Park Jogger case. A first-generation Puerto Rican, Matias Reyes was living out of his van when he attacked Meili. A Harlem bodega clerk by day, Reyes was a serial rapist by night. He was eventually convicted of an unrelated murder, and while serving life in prison, confessed to the rape of Meili, exonerating the Central Park Five after some of them had served over a decade behind bars. Netflix’s When They See Us docuseries chronicles how the standardization of DNA evidence and the confession of Matias Reyes paved the way for the 2002 exoneration of those five boys. When asked why he finally came clean, Reyes responded, “It was the right thing to do.” The life of Matias Reyes was fraught with trauma from the very beginning. According to an interview between him and a prison psychologist, he was born in Puerto Rico in 1971, and he moved to N...

  Central Park Five Part 1.   Ava DuVernay shed new light on the 30-year-old case of the Central Park Five with her Netflix miniseries, When They See Us. The scripted series is based on the true story of the “Central Park Five,” a group of five teenagers wrongly accused and convicted of a crime they didn't commit. Now, they're known as the “Exonerated Five,” since the real assailant was found in 2002.   Who are the Central Park Five? In 1989, Antron McCray, Kevin Richardson, Yusef Salaam, Raymond Santana Jr., and Korey Wise (who later changed his name to Kharey) were in Central Park on April 19—the night a white female jogger, Trisha Meili, was raped and severely beaten. All five were Black or Latinx teenagers from Harlem between the ages of 14 and 16.   What happened to the Central Park Five? Simply put, they were wrongly accused—and convicted—of raping and beating Meili, then a 28-year-old investment banker who fell into a coma after the attack. When sh...

  The Wolf Creek Story. The scenic Wolfe Creek National Park in the Western Australian Outback has never received so much attention, even though the movie title misspells it. The actual name of the remote meteorite crater on the edge of The Kimberley and the Great Sandy Desert is Wolfe Creek. Wolf Creek: A True Story? In the Wolf Creek Movie Story three young backpackers in their twenties return from a hike in Wolf Creek National Park in the Australian Outback to find that their car won't start. They accept help from a seemingly friendly local bushman. He tows their car to his camp, an abandoned old mine site. They spend the night there, wake up the next morning and this is when they realize that he is not the friendly bushman they thought. The horror starts there, and I won't tell you any more in case you haven't seen the movie. The movie tagline says, "Based on true events." So, what's the Wolf Creek true story? How close is the movie to Australian Outba...
