Defending the honor of a coworker can be a form of child abuse (opens the original)
Read excerpt
I am a teacher at an elementary school, and the kids have gone out of control. Last week, a fellow teacher and coworker was being bullied and slandered by a ten-year-old student, so I had to step in and defend her honor. He kept on calling her names, something he had been doing since the start of the school year to her and other teachers.

Read excerpt
My cousin forged the signature of my late grandmother in a notarized deed of donation, making it appear that my grandmother donated a parcel of land to him. Nevertheless, thanks to the intervention of our PAO lawyer, we were able to divide the estate of my grandmother accordingly. Now, we want to file a criminal case against such cousin.
