Update! “Bartow Bomb” student Kiera Wilmot will not face criminal charges

Update – The Wilmots will not need to be in court defending Kiera against felony charges, but the matter of her expulsion remains. Also, the fund being established by family attorney Larry Hardaway (still sketchy on details) is for Kiera’s “welfare and care,” not only legal fees. Kiera’s mother Marie is a single mother, and Kiera has a twin sister. Kiera and her sister will both be of college age next year.

Good news.

Formerly titled “Don’t Forget: Kiera Wilmot Defense Fund”

I have come across as a hard ass on the Kiera Wilmot case, because I cite the law, see how the law is in at least 16 other states, and report other cases in Florida and elsewhere in which young men (all male as I have seen), as young as eleven and 12 years old are arrested and charged with felonies for setting off bottle bombs. Those who did it on school grounds are also expelled or banned from campus. I am unsure of the racial aspect in the Wilmot case, as I see it as a zero tolerance issue.

It doesn’t mean I believe what is happening to Kiera is fair, even if enforcing the rules or laws evenly is “fair”. I have expressed my support. With my wallet.

I received this message from Angelle Wolf regarding her crowdtilt campaign “Help Kiera with her legal bills – she was expelled and arrested for a ...

Amanda Berry Rescuer Angel Cordero: “I did what had to be done.”

 

Angel Cordero (from ABC NewsChannel5)

Angel Cordero. Please remember this name.

What is most important in the story that continues to unfold in Cleveland, Ohio, is the fact that three women and one child are free from a decade of captivity at the hands of accused Ariel Castro, and are trying to recover and make up for lost time. Amanda Berry’s daring escape while her captor was out buying food, led authorities to the other captive women.

In yet another development in the story, it is being reported Tuesday and Wednesday that in fact, it was another neighbor, Angel Cordero from the house across the street to where the women were being held captive, who was first on the scene, was actually the ...

Legislating Full Disclosure of Medical Errors: Protecting Health Care Providers for Increased Patient Safety

This is a copy of what I wrote in February 2007 while a student in a local RN program, as I was disheartened by the clear cover-your-ass attitudes and policies of local health care providers, or even what was taught by our own school. I consider myself more of a consumer, than as a provider in health care, and thus find myself identifying with concerned patients and loved ones; than with professionals and facilities trying to stay in business or protect their reputations. (Also why I never pursued a career in business, my original degree – “The goal of the organization is to increase stakeholder benefit” = mo money, for the for profit, is not something I can stand behind. ...
