"Rivieri was ultimately fired and an appeal by him dismissed (it was not his only video performance apparently). The Mother of this child did file a lawsuit and, sadly, it was dismissed."

Hi, thanks for inviting me to be a contact. I basically have been using the site to get information for writing projects. I have gotten terrific books from here that have given me new perspectives. Again, thanks for the invite.

Nope, Adrian stumbled upon your essays by accident and pointed out to me that you had published some of your work from this year. And when I saw it that reminded me of our seminar talk in the public criminology lecture. So decided to get my own profile. Not sure what I'm going to do with it though.

 

How did you find me anyway, also by accident?
