She was in coma 12 days after the assault. 5 boys was acused for the crime, even though none of them did it. Their dna did not match the dna of the boys who actually assulted Meili. The boys were forced by the police to confess that they were behind the crime. One of the boys said that he could hear the cops beat up his friend in the room next to the one he was sitting in, and that a cop told him that he was next, unless if he confessed that he committed the crime on camera.
Today they are all in prison for attempted murder, rape, assault and robbery.]]> 2019-10-30 11:42:48 UTC https://padlet.com/noah_skjold_hauge_nilsson/uz7a60z101kh/wish/404365645 noah_skjold_hauge_nilsson https://padlet.com/noah_skjold_hauge_nilsson/uz7a60z101kh/wish/411160223 By Martin Luther King Jr. is a famous speech from a demonstration against racism.  Martin was talking about how he wishes that everyone could be like brothers and sisters. a famous quote from the speech is "I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin but by the content of their character." which is a philosophy that many people can still use today as inspiration.]]> 2019-11-14 13:30:15 UTC https://padlet.com/noah_skjold_hauge_nilsson/uz7a60z101kh/wish/411160223 davi4249 https://padlet.com/noah_skjold_hauge_nilsson/uz7a60z101kh/wish/413911201 The first episode of "When They See Us" is about 5 African American boys, that were in Central Park with many other boys. The boys were making trouble and doing stupid stuff in the park. The same time as the boys were in the park a woman got raped and left to death. The police suspects the five boys for the rape, even tho they don't really have any proof. In court they make the boys lie, just so they can make semselves guilty for the crime. They hit and shout at the boys and they keep them in for hours without food, sleep and many of them without their parents. 
The way the police are discriminating the boys i by hitting and shouting at the boys, only because they were black. We don't think they would do it to wealthy white kids, because their parents could sue the police.]]> 2019-11-20 11:17:08 UTC https://padlet.com/noah_skjold_hauge_nilsson/uz7a60z101kh/wish/413911201 noah_skjold_hauge_nilsson https://padlet.com/noah_skjold_hauge_nilsson/uz7a60z101kh/wish/417096544 you can buy a rifle and/or a shotgun when you turn 18, but you can drink alcohol and buy handguns at 21]]> 2019-11-27 11:33:17 UTC https://padlet.com/noah_skjold_hauge_nilsson/uz7a60z101kh/wish/417096544 noah_skjold_hauge_nilsson https://padlet.com/noah_skjold_hauge_nilsson/uz7a60z101kh/wish/421573005 https://padlet.com/magnus_bohn_joergensen/z0cgmz3ubiso]]> 2019-12-09 13:34:51 UTC https://padlet.com/noah_skjold_hauge_nilsson/uz7a60z101kh/wish/421573005
