August - 16 - 2015 Reporter: Sandra Respond

HOLLIS, Oklahoma – A former Hollis teacher will serve 10 years in prison for having sex with a student.

August - 11 - 2015 Reporter: Sandra Respond

The tragic case of a four-month-old who suffered more than 70 separate bone fractures and lay dead in her cot for a whole week has been told at a South Australian inquest. Baby Ebony, who died after sustaining significant head trauma, was left in a cot at her parents’ Adelaide unit for a week before they alerted authorities to their infant’s tragic death. A South Australian coroner will examine if social services agencies should have intervened before the four-month-old’s death in November 2011. The inquest has heard that Ebony suffered ‘horrific’ abuse at the hands of her then 19-year-old father, sustaining multiple skull fractures, more than 50 broken ribs, fractures to her collarbone, fingers and toes. Her father was jailed for only nine-years after pleading guilty to criminal neglect.

Shocking Video Shows Vulnerability of Young Teens On Social Media

August - 11 - 2015 Reporter: Sandra Respond

When Facebook was first introduced to the world, it was a new and exciting way to connect with friends and family. For me, it was the perfect way to keep in touch with friends I was missing from home — but like most teens, I never really got the “stay safe online” lecture from my parents.

However, when you’re a teenager on Facebook — or any social media for that matter, you don’t always think things through. The most common social media infraction that most teens make is connecting with people they don’t know.
