Young Teen Gang Raped After School Function


After a high school homecoming dance in Richmond,California, a 15 year old female was said to be raped by atleast 10 boys while a crowd of 20 people decided to stand around and watch. It was said that after the dance this particular female decided to go off on her own and meet up with a few people to drink alcohol. After she became intoxicated the boys around her began to beat her, rape her for 2 hours, and then steal her money. While this went on a crowd began to form and record this stupidity while others just laughed like they saw this on a daily basis. The crazy thing about this is that nobody decided to help her or call the police. This makes me want to ask what type of people live in California. I know for a fact that if anything like this happened in Mississippi nearly all of the attackers would be visiting the local hospital because we dont allow stuff like that to happen. While having a little discussion with my classmates we wanted to know some unanswered questions. Where was the supervision/police officers for this event? Where was the guardian of this child? What was she doing drinking with a bunch of strangers in the first place? and What kind of reputation did she have that made the attackers single her out as the victim? So far there have been 5 people arrested for this attack.

MVSU Student Talent Review

Thats right people, this past week was Mississippi Valley State Universities Homecoming so you know there was a lot of events to cover. Fortunately I had a chance to check out the Student Talent Review. People started rushing in soon as the doors open to find a seat next to there friends and family. The host of the night was comedian/actor C' Dog. He had the crowd hype from beginning to end with the jokes he made. I feel sorry for those people in the crowd that got clowned on. Moving to the main part of the show, there was eleven acts lined up for the night. Each talent ranged from rap music to r&b music. The acts are as follows:
1: T.K
2: Charles Stanton
3: Cordero Ross
4: Paul Mason/ Wayne Winford
5: Blake Young
6: Seven
7: LP/ Trinity
8: Stew
9: Timothy Wilkes/ Neffie
10: N/A
11: N/A
Some of these acts did a very good job, but I cant say the same for others. I even had a few members in the crowd tell me to take some people off of my review, but I will not say anything else about that.

The winners of the Student Talent review and prizes are:
1: Tim/Neffie - $500
2: LP/Trinity - $300
3: Paul Mason- $200

After the talent review was over the host decided to call all of the Fraternities to the front and show off a few strolls. The participants where Alpha Phi Alpha, Phi Beta Sigma, Omega Psi Phi, and Kappa Alpha Psi. Unfortunately my fraternity Iota Phi Theta didnt get a chance to stroll since I was the only member in attendance. The closing act of the night was a comedian by the name of Corey. Some people may know him from his appearances on Nick Cannons Wildin Out show from MTV. From the crowds reaction he did an ok, but most people wasn't feeling his jokes.
Pictures coming soon
