Chong Ly is my paternal Cousin from my biological father’s side. I have known her, since I was a young child.

In the US we should clearly create a mandatory mental evaluation act, so that every citizen in the country Legal and illegal citizens can be evaluated. This would help in collecting the data/story of suffers of sexual abuse to rape and many more. This would instill that victims foun...
