Hey, just read this in a brazilian newspaper my mom sent me from last week (she occasionally sends me lil package with pics, newspapers and other cool random stuff) ok so most ppl aren't familar with this living in either US or Canada but some fscked sh1t goes down in 3rd world countries...
For a couple years now there's been random kidnappings on the street and I don't mean like what its like in the states for instance, i mean like in the same city, like dozens of people per day like at traffic lights and stuff.
So the crooks are gettin more creative lately, I'm retyping this short article in portuguese:
"...the last victim was a 15 year old boy. He was walking homw one night when he heard a baby crying inside an empty construction site. As he walked over to see what was going on he was hit on the head with a brick and fainted. He woke up a couple hours later in the trunk of a moving vehicle. The vehicle came to a stop inside a warehouse and a cloth soaked with chloroform was placed over his nose and mouth, making him pass out again. The kidnappers called the boys family and demanded a certain ransom ammount (not revealed). A couple hours later the ammount was paid and the kidnappers drove by his house and threw the gagged and tied up boy out of the moving car onto the sidewalk.
His family found a strange scar on the boys stomach and took him to an all-hours hospital to investigate. Inside the boys stomach they found a laminated piece of paper with the following message scrawled on it: "Your money can save your childs life, but can't spare him from his imminent death." After a barrage of examinations, they found out the boy was infected with HIV. He vaguely remembered sharp stings on his arms, in the exact region where a small needle mark was found.
There have been 12 cases in the past 2 weeks..."
Just sick. I can't even find words to describe the kind of people that would actually do this to someone.
Thought I should share it.
