544. Shalom Christian College, Australia

Shalom Christian College is mentioned in the news after a rape occured on the campus. Sadly rapes occur in a lot of places. They should be invstigated and the criminals should face prison time. Most importantly: None should try to prevent or obstruct the investigation.

A lot of things point in the direction that someone among the management tried to prevent a full investigation of the rape of a 14 year old student.

Imagine being forced to live apart from your family and then being raped without having the chance of receiving justice in the form of seeing your attackers behind bars. How will that impact your life?

It cannot be fun to be there as a teenage student.
