I’m shocked he’s married to a woman who looks like his mother. Just utterly shocked.

Rural Southern California is scary. And I’m from rural Appalachia so that’s saying something.

Why be a teacher?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?! Do something else if you hate children.

Cinemark is insured against the lawsuit. Those who did nothing more than buy a movie ticket will be paying that bill for the rest of their lives - that is, if they survived.

I live a mile away from what has to be the most incredible Cinemark theatre in the country. I told both my kids to never give that company money again. Is the company responsible for what happened? Hell no. Are they responsible for how they reacted to lawsuits from shell shocked and grieving families? You bet. It’s…

That’s so awful, I’m so sorry that happened to you. This kind of indifference/incompetence is so angering.

My rapist admitted it to police the night of, he didn’t call it rape but admitted I couldn’t consent. I went to the hospital that night and documented all my injuries.
