    Saturday after noon, Saint Patrick Succat and among a few other men were accused of stealing from 8th Avenue Gang. The leader of this group, Henry Alton, who is suspected of multiple homicides, soon takes matters into his own hands when the authorities fail to get a confession from Succat. Alton kidnaps Succat and takes him to a warehouse in Leixlip. Several eye witness viewed the kidnapping and reported multiple armed men including Alton snatching Succat off the streets. Authorities search for four days, but begin fear for the worst when Succat remains missing. No sightings have occurred since the initial kidnapping. Finally, Thursday afternoon, the unbelievable happens. Succat walks into the Police Station unharmed with the gang and a stranger wearing a sheet. However, that is not the flabbergasting fact. When the members of the 8th Avenue Gang were arrested at the scene, they not only confessed to the kidnapping and conspiracy to murder Succat, but also claimed to have seen Succat to raise a corpse from the dead. This story isn't completely false. Sometime last Friday, a corpse was admitted to the morgue which is beside the old warehouse. Adam Donald had died at the scene of a fatal car collision last Thursday. What was originally a suspected break in was something else entirely. Officers arrived at the scene only to find Donald’s body was missing. The truly peculiar aspect was the broken…

Not even thinking about there future and what her future could be. This book is really good because it’s suspenseful and the vocabulary is great. The whole book it amazing.…

    How reliable do you think autobiographies are? This is a very controversial question that can be argued on both sides. But for this essay, we are going to leave it up to your opinion but I’m going to give you mine. In the autobiography ‘Kidnapped’ written by Olaudah Equiano, is one of the first tirmes we hear about the journey of a slave from a firsthand point of view. The thing is, can we trust an official document like the Constitution to be true facts just as much as Equiano’s autobiography of the declaration of sentiments to be the most reliable way to report history.…

    Similarly, high school can be compared to an obstacle course routine. If high school were an obstacle course, it would be one of the last and hardest obstacles to overcome. Similar to a trained competitor doing these courses, 9th graders have to adjust to any change that is not familiar to them in order to make this a routine. While 9th graders currently have the responsibility to adjust to the high school environment by themselves, it is still an important obstacle to overcome and it is essential to get exposure to it now and not…

    In the town of South Lake Tahoe, children played safely outside, the sun always seemed to be shining, and laughter was a common sound. Everyone knew one another and crime ratings were close to zero. Due to the town’s “child-friendly” nature, the Dugard family called this place home (Hawkins). However, on June 10, 1991, a fiery nightmare exploded into reality for eleven year-old Jaycee Dugard. Walking towards the bus stop, Jaycee was dragged into a grey sedan (Hawkins). Jaycee’s stepfather Carl Probyn witnessed this gut-wrenching act from down the street and tried unsuccessfully to trail the car on a bike. (Tresniowski). Jaycee’s mother, Terry, lost control of her emotions after her daughter’s kidnapping (Tresniowski). The ordeal also eventually caused Terry and Carl to split (Hawkins). Before the divorce, they put forth tremendous efforts to find their missing daughter, such as producing more than 500,000 posters (Tresniowski). Thankfully, Miss Dugard was found alive in 2009 in the Bay Area (Hawkins); however, Jaycee’s abductors, Phillip and Nancy Garrido, can only be described as severely disturbed. During Jaycee’s captivity, she lived in the trash-infested, “hell-warren” backyard compound of the Garrido’s (Tresniowski). As well as a horrendous living environment, Jaycee gave birth to two daughters fathered by Phillip Garrido during her eighteen years of hell on Earth (Hawkins). The basic facts of this story are famous nation-wide; however, most individuals are clueless as to why Jaycee wasn’t rescued for so long and how she survived. Because of mistakes made by police and other officials and Garrido’s master criminal mind, Jaycee was not rescued for eighteen years, during which her methods of survival kept her alive.…

    The moment I step on to school grounds it begins. Couples are hugging and holding hands and it isn’t even eight am yet. Walking into the school I’m greeted by the sight of people lip-locking all around me. I have to squeeze between my locker and whoever is being kissed against it. I’m dogging through all the couples to escape being caught in the middle of one of their countless make-out sessions. I’ve never noticed just how many couples actually attend Amery High School.…
