I can't believe there isn't a thread about this already, I find this story very disturbing.

Gardaí are investigating if a young person known to Cameron Reilly murdered the teenager in front of a number of youths.
The body of the 18-year-old was found in a field near Dunleer, Co Louth, at around 8.30am on Saturday.
The teenager had been socialising with up to 20 young males and females in the field near the Rivervale area in the hours before his murder.
A senior source last night said gardaí were appealing for the people who were with Cameron before his murder to come forward.
A missing mobile phone, which belonged to Cameron, is also being searched for and may prove crucial to the investigation.
Last night, investigators appealed for people in the locality to check their bins, as the phone may have been dumped by the killer. Inspector John O'Flaherty said: "We are particularly appealing for assistance from the public to locate Cameron's phone, an Apple iPhone 8 (64GB) with a green hard back cover, grey in colour.
In a heart-breaking Facebook post, Cameron's mother Tracy Glass thanked the local community and paid tribute to her son.
"Thank you to each and everyone of you, our hearts are broken in a million pieces. My beautiful son love u to the moon and back," Ms Glass wrote.
A post-mortem examination, carried out by Deputy State Pathologist Dr Linda Mulligan, confirmed Cameron died in "violent circumstances".
A source told Independent.ie the cause of death had been established as strangulation.
CCTV footage from a local takeaway, not far from where the teenager's body was discovered, shows his last known movements.
Cameron was in Enzio's takeaway and pizzeria in Dunleer at around 12.30am on Saturday.
His body was found on Saturday by a man walking his dog at Shamrock Hill, near the town’s Glen Dimplex factory.
This is appalling. He was strangled to death allegedly in front of friends, or at least, people that he knew and probably regarded as friends. Who, by the sounds of things left his body there to be discovered by a random passer by walking his dog.:mad::mad:
The Gardaí are still seeking information from anyone that may have been there, and they are also looking for his phone.
How could nobody have spoken up about this and told the Gardaí everything they know?
