Father throws son off high-rise – CNN.com Video

A man in the midst of a bitter custody battle threw his son off a Manhattan high-rise before jumping to his own death.

 

Community Village‘s insight:

 

I hear stories every year about men who take vengance out on their own family.

“The Durham Police Department says Huerta died on November 19 from a self-inflicted gunshot while handcuffed in the back of a police cruiser.”

 

 

Community Village‘s insight:

 

A similar incident happened to Chavis Carter a 21-year old American male who was found dead from a gunshot while handcuffed in the back of a police patrol car on July 29, 2012

 

The police car’s recording device in the Carter case had “problems” and didn’t record the sound just before and at the time of the shooting.

Family of Georgia student suspended for teacher hug files appeal

The family of a Georgia student suspended for the school year for hugging a teacher has filed an appeal with the school board, the teen’s mother tells CNN.

 

Community Village‘s insight:

 

In his senior year of high school, he is suspended for a year.

 

He did not deserve a suspension for this. However, he should have simply been told that some people don’t like hugs. If he was in a Latin country, this would be less of an issue. It’s common to kiss on the cheek as a greeting in Mexico for example.
