I would just like to point something out. Now that this is going before the judge many are having their charges dropped completely. Most of the rest are expected to have their charges dropped as well. Before anyone decides to be quick to judge, stop and consider why so many of these cases are being thrown out?

well i think that the company should do background checks of all their potential employees..but i also think that the family members should be more envolved then what they are..anyone knows that it is frustrating taking care of someone in the shape that most of them are in..they have a mind if their own, they are human just like the rest of us, they want to be loved, made to feel special, not to be beat around on and throwed in the bed, so you dont have to mess with them...and to all of you being charged, you know which of you are innocent and which of you are guilty,just remember you will be in a state that you will have to rely on someone to care for you... as the old saying goes,,what comes around goes around..so be prepared..
