Sacramento DA: ‘Why is California releasing violent sex offenders before they’ve even completed serious treatment for the crimes that put them in prison?’In yet another decision that has ignited widespread fury among victims’ rights advocates and law enforcement, the California Board of Parole Hearings has granted early release to Roberto Detrinidad, a convicted home invasion rapist who described his heinous crime as his “Super Bowl of crime.” Detrinidad, an HIV-positive felon sentenced to life in prison for breaking into a San Francisco woman’s apartment and sodomizing her while she slept, will walk free from San Quentin State Prison by May...

New genetic research is reshaping how scientists understand ancient relationships between early humans and Neanderthals. A study published in Science suggests that mating between Homo sapiens women and Neanderthal men occurred more often than the reverse, leaving a lasting mark on the human genome. The finding helps explain a long-standing mystery in genetics. Modern humans carry small amounts of Neanderthal DNA across most of their genome, but almost none on the X chromosome. These gaps, known as Neanderthal deserts, puzzled scientists for years. Modern humans and Neanderthals split from a shared ancestor about 600,000 years ago. Human ancestors evolved in...

The scope and depth of the evil now coming into plain view across the Western world defies comprehension. More baffling still is the fact that, in many cases, the West brought this evil upon itself. Monday on the social media platform X, British politician Rupert Lowe, Member of Parliament for Great Yarmouth, posted a “Statement from the Rape Gang Inquiry” filled with shocking details of police behaving as “active perpetrators” in the extreme sexual abuse and murder of young British girls “predominantly perpetrated by Pakistani-heritage men.” Lowe’s statement described testimony from a survivor of Pakistani rape gangs whose ordeal began...

This special investigative report from Operation Rescue details shocking new connections between Planned Parenthood and the concealment of sexual abuse by one of America’s most notorious predators, Jeffrey Epstein. The notorious “Epstein Files” contain the mention of “abortion” over 280 times. In one of these mentions, the facts are clear and demand public scrutiny and accountability — especially in regards to Planned Parenthood. According to victim accounts documented in FBI investigative files, a young woman — just about 17 years old — discovered she was pregnant as a result of sexual abuse and grooming by Jeffrey Epstein. In urgent need...

MP Rupert Lowe, who launched an independent inquiry into the mass child rape that occurred throughout England at the hands of clans of mostly Pakistani Muslim men, has called on the government to launch an investigation into cases of missing girls in grooming areas to determine whether they may have been trafficked to Pakistan as sex slaves. “I believe there are currently countless British women being used as sex slaves overseas. This may sound insane. It is not. Look at these gangs. Nobody would have believed the extent of the evil before it was uncovered. This is very real,” the...

Greg Gutfield hands Tarlov a defeat over victims of illegal crime: https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2026/01/greg-gutfeld-goes-jessica-tarlov-virtue-signaling-illegals/ Trump needs to establish something like the Vietnam memorial but dedicate it to victims of illegal crime. Like: Woman who have been raped and murdered. Girls who have been raped and murdered. Men who have been killed. ect. This would give everyone in the administration a talking point when they are jumped by the press on all the victims of ICE. "Since you are interested in victims, the Whitehouse is planning to build a memorial to the victims of illegal immigrants". I'd love to see Leavitt, Noem, Homan,...

SNIP There in that hotel, a little over four years ago, I was raped by a group of men during a three-day trip I took to Las Vegas with two of my best friends. Of the rape, which lasted all night, I remember both too much and too little. I never did anything about it. I didn’t tell anyone who could have done something about it, either, such as the hotel staff or the Las Vegas police. I never considered taking any kind of action at the time, but ever since the possibility has haunted me as a particularly cruel...

🚨 This woman nails it while Legacy media ignores it. “Did you guys hear about the illegal immigrant that was arrested in Georgia yesterday for brutally raping an 11-year-old girl at knifepoint and forcing her ten year old little sister to watch after breaking into their bedroom? Hmm, probably not, because you dumbasses have been so stuck on the five year old that was supposedly detained by ICE that with a 30 second Google search, you would have figured out that his dad actually ran and abandoned him and ICE wasn't going to leave a five-year-old by himself. You guys...

The abduction and trafficking of women and girls from religious minority communities in Muslim dominated countries is widely recognized by concerned groups as a major problem for these communities. This came to the world’s attention for a time in 2014 when 276 school girls were abducted in Chibok, Borno State, Nigeria, which gave rise to a world-wide movement for their recovery. At least 130 of these girls have been recovered, but the remainder are still missing. This is actually a substantial recovery rate relative to what can be expected where abduction is a problem. Commonly, a young woman is targeted...

Terrified Dutch students made to live side-by-side with 125 refugees to aid their 'integration' were subjected to years of sexual assault and violence, an investigation has reported. Stek Oost, located in the Watergraafsmeer district of Amsterdam, was sold to the Netherlands as the dream solution to the housing and refugee crisis. A total of 125 students and 125 refugees would live alongside each other, and were even encouraged to 'buddy up' so the migrants would adapt to life in the Netherlands more quickly. But students living there told Dutch investigative documentary programme Zembla they faced multiple sexual assaults, harassment, violence,...
