A community for discussing events around the World

Rules:

Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

I clicked the link into this thread and thought, "it's gotta be India", then, "that's not fair, rape happens all over the globe, even to children". It was India.

I think there are clues in the title ... it was nothing like : "A priest culprit of assaulting dozens of children over many decades" ...

Yeah, actually, the bash head with rock to hide identity would have given away that it wasn't likely a western country (where bashed in head guarantees murder investigation and DNA testing is likely). "Private watchman" was another hint. As was "bid". Written by someone who knows the language well but not natively.
