* * * When Justice Fails the Children: Kristy's Story * * *
I wanted to let you all know about a
heart-wrenching story that my dear friend Debra
Sanders has written about one of the children she
used to work with.
http://www.debrasanders.blogspot.com
This story needs to be heard. Debra is most
interested in reaching Rosie O’Donnell, for
several reasons. She is asking those touched by
Kristy’s story to help her in this way: please go
to Rosie.com and sign up for free. If you can
write a one-liner about Debra and her blog, it
would be one step closer to attracting someone
who has the financial resources to fund an
investigation and the wider recognition of this
story and others like it, to save the children
before it is too late.
The song I co-wrote called Children are the Light
is very appropos to this particular case, and if
anyone is interested in hearing the mp3, please
write to me and I’ll send you a copy.
