Just come accoss this has the world has gone mad .....

 

Teodora del Carmen Vasquez called emergency services when she started experiencing increasingly severe pain at work. She went into labour, and was unconscious when she gave birth in the bathroom of her workplace. When she regained consciousness, bleeding profusely, her baby was stillborn. Police at the scene arrested her.

Teodora was convicted in 2008 of "aggravated homicide" and sentenced to 30 years in prison. She has spent the last 8 years in jail.

Many board members may scoff of my support of Amnesty International by sending emails as rather stupid. But today, I along with 230,000 other people sending emails of protest, have helped secure the release of Karl Andree. An old UK man of 74 in a Saudia Arabian prison after 1 year for being found with alcohol by police.

 

He was to have faced 350 lashes in addition on his release. Which would have probably killed him, fortunately due to the many thousands that sent emails of protest, he has now been released and repatriated back to the UK.

 

Why not spend a minute and do something good today, in helping Teodora del Carmen Vasquez .....
