I am deeply moved by your story. Thank you for your courage in sharing this with visitors to ROSE.
Please have a look at the Groups section. I added the petition in there, it's a start. If you want additions or changes just let me know. I asked people at work to sign the petition and filled a whole sheet, my first one. My co-workers were also very moved and wanted to help. They felt strongly that the police and the courts should do more.
I wrote Avaaz and asked then to help with the online petition and am now waiting to hear back.
Wishing you and your family peace,
Chris
