Kidnapped 89-Year-Old to Captors: 'You Got to Be Kind to Other People'

This article is about how these 5 teens are charged for robbing and kidnapping an 89-year-old elder, Margaret Smith. Two teens girl approached Smith and asked for a ride across town, Smith decided to as a good deed but then the two girls stole her car keys and stuffed her in the trunk. Smith was there for two days without food or any of her needed medications, and was later dumped in a cemetery where she was found by someone and brought to the hospital.

One struggle here is the one Smith faced while she was kidnapped. She, an elderly, had to struggle to live in the trunk of her car for two days. As an elderly she already is more weak in health, but two days without food, water, or any medication is horrible. I feel ashamed to know that the ones who forced her into the trunk and robbed her were teens my age. I was always raised to respect my elders, and I feel disgusted towards those other teens. It's also horrible that this started off with the attempt at doing a good deed...

40 years after epic fire, convicted man to go free

This article is about how Louis Taylor was convicted of suspicion for setting fire to a hotel that lead to 29 deaths.Back when the trial was first held, there was not much evidence showing that Taylor committed the crime, but he was nonetheless found guilty and was sent to jail at age 16. The case was picked up again decades later and through this whole time Taylor stood by that he wasn't guilty. Finally, he plead for a lesser charge, and was released at age 53.

Taylor's struggle is one against "justice". He has repeatedly plead not guilty for 37 years. Being put in jail for so long must have been horrible if he is innocent. It reminds me of how the man, Zeitoun was put in prison after the hurricane. Through the book, Zeitoun, it showed how much stress he went through for being wrongfully treated as a criminal although he didn't do anything wrong. Imagine being treated that way for decades?
