    • It’s such a shame that the very persons who should have been shielding and protecting this child are the very ones who has ended her life!!! If shame was a person…. Who can be trusted on this earth? WHO? Who’s going to protect our young girls from the evil hands of the enemy? So very very sad and hurtful 😡. What she could have done so bad that all these young uniform police officers took her life. Not one of them could have said to the other leave that child alone? Do any of them have sisters, cousins etc….
