Ivan Roca, a right-wing politician in Chile, triggered the rage of the Chileans and literally people from all around the world as he pointed his finger to the 12-year-old girl raped by his 33-year-old son, accusing her of having a “woman’s body” thus defending his rapist son’s act.

The wrongdoer, Jurgen Roca Aguayo, is in custody awaiting his trial as his dad is doing his best to portray him as the victim, although he raped a minor.

According to The Sun, Roca took to Facebook to explain how parents of girls must escort their daughters around whenever they want to go out and “control” them if they don’t want them to end up being raped.

After he was condemned by the wide public and a number of politicians, Roca simply said it was a “shame that it was always the man that paid the price.”

The ex-vice president of Roca’s political party, UDI, Isabel Pla Jarufe said of her former colleague: “He has a public responsibility as an official and his statements are unacceptable. He has attempted to make his 33-year old son a victim in a case where he raped a 12-year old girl.”

After Roca realized that no one supported his outrageous beliefs, he claimed his words were “taken out of context,” but instead offering an apology, he explained how he didn’t mean to say that female children should be “controlled” by their parents, but offered “guidance,” once again placing the blame on the parents of the girl his son raped.

Further, he gave an interview for Eldesconcierto during which he once again did his best to make his son the victim. As quoted by The Daily Mail, Roca said “It’s a shame what happened to my son,” and added, “I just visited him in jail and it was full of young men just like him, detained for being with minors without thinking of the consequences beforehand. This feels very wrong to me regardless of whether the minor appeared older or not.”

Despite being criticized by the public for defending his son, Roca believes it is the raped person who is at fault and not the rapist.

This is shocking!

The unlike animal friendships like the one between Bea the giraffe and Wilma the ostrich as well as Mani the wild boar piglet and Candy the dog remind us that we don’t have to look the same in order to love one another.

Fred is residing at the Mountfitchet Castle along with the castle’s director Jeremy Goldsmith and this tiny family of nine ducklings that he considers his own. Jeremy believed that the incredible sight of Fred taking care of his “kids” was way too cute not to be shared with the rest of us.

“Fred took to fatherhood as a duck takes to water,” Jeremy says as he shares adorable photos of the ducklings riding on Fred’s back and him laying next to them to keep them warm.

What an incredible friendship, don’t you think? Take a look at the whole story in the video below and don’t forget to share it with your friends, they are going to love it.

Danielle Hopton, an 18-year-old teenager from Colorado, was found beaten in the parking lot of 525 East Drake Road. Unfortunately, she died as a result of the severity of her injuries.

Hopton was described as “a gorgeous, loving, kind and caring young woman” who was a huge animal lover. Her family says she spent most of her free time volunteering at a local shelter in Fort Collins and was helping her dad raise guide dogs for the blind.

The tragic incident took place on February 6, and the police already made an arrest. The suspect is identified as 20-year-old Stephen McNeil. He and Hopton were attending the same school and were allegedly dating in the past.

The beating was reported by McNeil’s friends who saw him fleeing the scene after a group of them were hanging together at an apartment complex near the parking lot where Hopton was found.

McNeil was arrested the following day and was booked into the Larimer County Jail on charges of first-degree murder, a felony, domestic violence, violation of a protection order, and violation of bail bond conditions. One of McNeil’s friends who was with him and Hopton that day, Ian Rayas, was charged with accessory to a crime and attempt to influence a public servant as he falsely denied knowing what had happened.

This wasn’t McNeil’s first arrest. In December, he was charged with a felony assault involving strangulation and again in January with misdemeanor criminal mischief.

“Our deepest condolences go out to the family and friends of the victim,” said Investigations Lieutenant Jeremy Yonce. “This heinous act of violence took a woman’s life and forever changed the lives of her loved ones. We will continue working diligently to support her family and seek justice.”

A GoFundMe page was set up on the behalf of the Hopton’s family by Bo Street. It says: “All money raised will be split equally between Guide Dogs for the Blind, Larimer Animal Shelter, and Crossroads Safehouse. This is what Danielle would’ve wanted.”

We are so very sorry for the loss, our thoughts and prayers are with the Hopton family. Rest in peace, Danielle.

Is there anything a parent won’t do for the well being of their children? The answer to this question is a resounding yes, and the dad from this story proves that to be right once again.

Elizabeth Boyd is a 38-year-old woman from Oklahoma who recently warmed the hearts of hundreds of people who stumbled upon her Facebook post.

Namely, as the weather went truly bad and the streets were all icy, her father got worried that she would slip and hurt herself, so he decided to wait for her outside her workplace and pour salt on the way from the building’s front door to her vehicle.

“You guys… THIS IS MY DAD,” she wrote. “He drove to my workplace and waited on me to arrive so he could pour a trail of salt from my vehicle to the front door of my building so that I, his 38 year old daughter, wouldn’t slip and fall on the ice…My heart y’all… Love you daddy.”

She posted this along with the photo of her dad carrying the bad of salt.

“[M]y Dad is just like yours! I’m 39 and married! And he still checks on me every single day! they sure don’t make them like that anymore! We are blessed!”

We also believe that Elizabeth is very lucky for having such an incredible dad.

Years after this case which shook UK took place, a documentary revealing details of it emerged. The Disappearance of Shannon Matthews showed how Shannon’s own mother Karen plotted the kidnapping while portraying herself as a worried parent pleading the police and the public to find her little girl.

Karen, who was at the time dating Craig Meehan, came up with a plan with his uncle, Michael Donovan, to make over $69,500 (£50,000) by claiming the reward money.

And while she was crying crocodile tears on the national TVs and over 250 officers and 60 detectives were searching for her daughter, along with the help of thousands of drivers and hundreds of friends, sweet Shannon was kept inside Michael’s apartment, drugged and tethered.

Over 3,000 places were searched in hopes of finding the girl before Michael’s neighbors called the police saying they had heard tiny steps coming from inside his place.

Detective Constables Nick Townsend and Paul Kettlewell together with their teams went to check on Michael. What they saw inside his home left them in chills. Speaking to The Mirror, Nick said: “There was a deathly silence, then I heard a little girl’s voice. She said, ‘Stop it, you’re frightening me.’ I think Donovan had his hand over her mouth. I knew the voice had come from within the room. I couldn’t work out where it was coming from.”

Shannon was found in the base of a double bed and Michael was there too. He bit one of the officer’s arm and shouted: “Get Karen down here. We’re sharing the money – £50,000.”

As per The Guardian, the prosecutor Julian Goose QC called Karen “a proven, consummate, skillful and convincing liar.”

Both Karen and Michael were sentenced to eight years in prison. Years after she kidnapped her own daughter, Karen was reported to had told The Mirror: “I’m not Britain’s worst mum. I didn’t kill anybody. None of it’s true. I’m on the edge. It makes me want to kill myself but I’d never do that. I’m scared I’ll die lonely and alone.”

As for Shannon, she got a new identity and is living with a new family in an undisclosed location.

There are famous and successful people out there who have accomplished a lot in their field of interest, and there are those who besides being considered the best for what they do professionally, are also great as human beings. The basketball legend, His Airness, Michael Jordan is definitely part of the latter.

Jordan is known for his heart of gold and his mission of helping the vulnerable throughout the years. This time, he has donated $10 million to the Novant Health, money used to open two new clinics in early 2022 in New Hanover County, North Carolina, his hometown.

In a statement released for the public, Jordan said: “I am very proud to once again partner with Novant Health to expand the Family Clinic model to bring better access to critical medical services in my hometown.”

“Everyone should have access to quality health care, no matter where they live, or whether or not they have insurance. Wilmington holds a special place in my heart and it’s truly gratifying to be able to give back to the community that supported me throughout my life.”

This isn’t the first time, however, for Jordan to help the health care system. Last year, he donated $7 million to help fund two of his Michael Jordan Family Clinics in Charlotte.

Representatives of the Novant Health said how the Charlotte Hornets owner’s clinics in Charlotte have helped treat over 4000 patients and gave out over 10,000 COVID-19 vaccinations. They further explained how the latest donation tends to help those who are either uninsured or underinsured.

“This pandemic has exacerbated health equity gaps across our state, making our efforts to close them even more emergent. We look forward to standing these clinics up as quickly as possible to ensure all members of the community have access to necessary medical care” the statement by Novant Health President Carl Armato read.

“We are so appreciative of Michael’s unwavering commitment to help us bring affordable care to our communities that need it most. It’s not only an investment in us as a partner, but it’s an investment in each and every person that our clinics can reach.”

Michael Jordan has done a lot for the community and he’s not planning on stopping any time soon. In fact, he said how his company would donate $100 million over the next ten years. This money will be used to fight social injustice and racial inequality, as well as to provide greater access to education.

Thank you, legend!

Little boy gets scared by a goat’s loud fart

Kids and animals are the most loved creatures on Earth, and when they get together, well, there’s nothing cuter, really.

The good thing about children being around animals while they grow up is that they learn responsibility, and this isn’t only true for cats and dogs.

A sweet little boy named Asher went to a petting zoo with his parents. The day was a lovely one and he got to meet different creatures, each one stealing his attention and awakening his curiosity just equally.

However, when he approached the goat, he got to experience something very “unusual” and we are so glad it was caught on tape. Namely, as Asher was petting the goat, she farted so loudly that he jumped and screamed. It sure felt like a “dreadful” experience for the boy, but at least he will have a memory to laugh at when he gets older.

The video was shared on Facebook and gathered the attention of thousands of people. It has over 90,000 comments, mainly of people tagging those in their lives who fart as loud as this goat. Hilarious, indeed.
