Tessa isn't the retarded one.
Hoogland and her (socialist) ilk are severely morally/ethically retarded.
If it was widely reported, what is the problem?
EURO-Dhimmi alert! How the Muslims love their useful idiots who are naive liberal Westerners
The Dutch people are not stupid. They know that crimes committed by Arab residents are covered up everyday by liberal officials so as not to inflame the ethnic Dutch population who, from what I read, are growing fed up with the barbaric behavior of their Arab "guests."
Raping and kidnapping Christian girls and women is a common tactic in many parts of the world.
Apparently it goes on in Dutch land too.
If you have talk radio there, that might be a good way to get the issue in front of the public and force the print media to deal with it.
She also saw to it that the 14 rapists got help, that they got courses where they learned how they could defend themselves.
The world has gone batty.
How about giving these people the full truth meneer Hans?
The rape was end of 1999 / beginning 2000. The police report was from about the 14th of february 2000. Mrs. Anne Marie Hoogland only went to work for the "stadsdeelraad" (part city council) in october of that year and as the NOVA report clearly states there was a damning report over the activities from the council regarding this case, the failures of childservices and an acknowledgement in this report about having failed the child and her parents, less than 5 months after mrs. Hoogland had started working there (april-may 2001).
The report also states that it was mrs. Hoogland personally (against advise from child-services et al) who worked in finding a place in an institution for this 15 year old somewhat retarded/mentally handicapped girl.
The decision to keep it secret was made (in all likelyhood when looking at the date of the police-report) by the previous head of the "stadsdeelraad" and not by mrs. Hoogland. Furthermore it was a decision that was made by the police, child-services and several more welfare organisations to protect the girl concerned (who at the age of 11 was so poorly that she was only able to speak 3 words and in a terrible state), to let the legal system prosecute the men involved and to stop potential unrest and problems in the neighborhood.
And as we know from last week sometimes things like this can lead to serious unrest and several fatalities (Birmingham UK). Furthermore the suspects were tried and convicted for their crimes. Another little thing, according to NOVA it was a mixed group of kids (both muslim and non muslims).
