    The mother’s boyfriend is a registered sex offender and they didn’t check him out before?

      They didn’t even know who the kid was.

    I don’t know that advertising the existence of this team, or their methods, is a good idea.

      Exactly. Or what feature (the wall) they used to rescue her.

      To me this kinda sounds like helpful news to abusers. So they now cover the walls too.

      Some things should not make news at all.

    Again, fuck Meta/Facebook for not helping.

      They’d find an address in seconds if the wall had a Palestine flag on it.

      The fact they’ll eagerly help oppress people, but not one of the few times the authorities are doing something decent, tells you everything you need to know.
