It’s an honor to baptize an unrepentant accused rapist, sexual assaulter who targeted 16 year olds?
Maybe it is for him:
In August 2015, Grylls left his 11-year-old son on Saint Tudwal’s Island off the North Wales coast, as the tide approached, leaving him to be rescued by the Royal National Lifeboat Institution(RNLI) as part of their weekly practice missions. The child was unharmed, though the RNLI later criticised Grylls for the stunt, saying its crew “had not appreciated” that a child would be involved.[18]
I’m starting to believe this is a story in need of a map of the US, so parents have a better idea of what states allow hospitals to routinely collect from babies, which ones share the data (with law enforcement or private companies), and which ones keep the samples for…reasons:
Each parent is provided with information specific to Virginia’s sample retention and destruction policy. The state laboratory (Division of Consolidated Laboratory Services) holds residual blood spots for 6 months.Samples that tested with abnormal results are retained for 10 years .
Because of the lawsuit, Texas passed a law so parents with kids born after the law passed have to give permission for retention beyond 2 years. But I feel like asking that question right after giving birth is a dick move. Especially since there isn’t an option to opt out later.
Plus the opt-in law only applies to births after the law. Anyone in the gap has to send in a form to get their kid’s blood removed.
The research is important but there aren’t enough protections. If researchers want this blood, they need to push through very tough laws making it illegal for any law enforcement agency to use any of the information
