A pregnant 10-year-old girl from Paraguay is the center of a heated debate after being denied an abortion by her home country, Boston’s WFXT reports.
The girl was reportedly raped by her stepfather and is now 22 weeks into her pregnancy, according to CNN. Her mother wants her to have an abortion, but the government has denied the request because abortion is illegal in Paraguay unless the mother’s health is in jeopardy.
“Right now, there is no reason to interrupt the pregnancy,” a public health representative told USA Today, adding that it may be more dangerous for her to have an abortion at this stage of her pregnancy.
The mother initially reported the stepfather’s sexual abuse in early 2014 with no results. The mother was arrested when she brought the 10-year-old to the hospital because her belly was swollen. The stepfather is now on the run, according to CNN.
***UPDATE***
The girl’s stepfather, who is accused of raping her, was arrested over the weekend and placed in isolation to prevent other inmates from attacking him. The girl’s mother is being held at a female prison for neglecting to take care of her daughter.
Principal Krista E. Morton was arrested after the cops found her in a marijuana smoke filled car with one of her students.
The brazen irresponsibility being shown among some of today’s school administrators and teachers has flat out become down right appalling!
A 45 year old principal down in Florida spent the night in the county jail after the cops stumbled up on her and one of her school students pulling a “Cheech and Chong” session in a car in a North Palm Beach parking lot.
Part of me cannot fathom what a 45 year old woman would have in common with a 19 year old, and besides that what part of her right mind would risk her freedom, career and reputation by being caught smoking weed in a car…. in a parking lot? Talk about hot boxing!
The only solace here lies in the fact that the boy student was over the legal age of 18 so it cuts down on some of the creepy factor.
Due to the steady increase of teachers and administrators in the news being reprimanded and fired for corruption and irresponsible choices such as these, I am more than sure she will not be getting her principal gig back.
Again, another waste of a brain!
Peep the story.

The principal of the Mavericks High of Palm Springs charter school has been suspended after police say they caught her in a marijuana-filled car with one of her students.
Krista E. Morton, 45, of Wellington, was arrested Wednesday after cops received a call about possible sexual activity in a parking lot by a park in North Palm Beach.
Police say they found Morton in the car with a 19-year-old senior from the school. The report says Morton’s “shirt was unbuttoned, exposing her shoulders and part of her chest.”
Morton first told officers that she and the student were “just friends,” an arrest report stated. Then cops say she claimed he was a stranger she had picked up off the street because she was lonely.
Later, the 19-year-old student admitted to cops that Morton was the principal of his school.
Cops said they smelled marijuana coming from the car and discovered a plastic container containing marijuana.
Both Morton and the student were arrested on marijuana possession charges. Morton spent the night in jail and was released this morning, jail records show.
