Crimes Of Rape Have Tripled In Six Years Across Spain
With an average of 14 rapes per day across the country, the figure nearly triples the 1,878 cases reported in 2019 when five daily incidents were reported. The upward trend has remained consistent year-over-year since 2018, aside from a brief dip during 2020 due to Covid-19 restrictions.
Regional breakdowns show that communities like Catalonia, Madrid, and Andalusia report the highest numbers, although increases have been noted throughout all regions of Spain. Cases involving minors, nightlife-related assaults, and attacks perpetrated by groups of offenders are also on the rise. The grim reality presented by these numbers translates to a woman being raped every hour and 45 minutes in Spain.
Remix News reported in November last year on a La Rázon report that revealed 91 percent of those convicted of rape in Catalonia are foreigners, with immigrants comprising just 17 percent of the region's total population.
When it comes to sexual assault and rape combined, 64.2 percent of inmates are foreign nationals.
As reported by El Español, the rapid increase in sexual violence has overwhelmed specialized police units such as the Family and Women's Care Units (UFAM) of the National Police and the Women-Minor Teams (EMUME) of the Civil Guard, both reporting understaffing and resource constraints. Officers within these units indicate that they are working beyond capacity, often handling a significantly higher workload than a decade ago without adequate support, training, or compensation.

40% Of All Violent Crime Suspects In German Schools Are Foreigners, Over 2 Knife Attacks Per Day
New data shows that 40 percent of all suspects identified in school violence in 2024 were not German citizens, with Syrians at the top of the charts. In total, there were 4,254 foreign suspects and 7,309 suspects with German citizenship, the German government announced in response to a parliamentary inquiry from Alternative for Germany (AfD) MP Martin Hess. Of the 11,558 suspects in total, 1,236 had Syrian passports, representing one in ten violent incidents, according to the data, which was provided to Welt newspaper. In second place were Afghans, who represented 3.6 percent of all suspects. 🇩🇪🚨German classroom nightmareTeachers mocked, lessons disrupted, and even physical assaults."I am no longer in control of the situation. I feel like a failure.

Even with those with dual citizenship, they are only counted as Germans. Neighboring Denmark records the data of Danish citizens with a foreign background, giving the country a better idea of integration efforts and trends in foreign crime. In total, there were 35,570 violent crimes in Germany's school system last year. That amounts to 97 violent crimes per day. Of those crimes, 740 were knife attacks. That is over two knife attacks per day.

On top of that, 24,292 crimes took place at school events, such as a school field trip or theatrical production, which also included an additional 284 incidents involving a knife. 'These are shocking figures that show that our children are exposed to increasing danger even in supposedly protected areas,' commented AfD MP Birgit Bessin, who submitted the parliamentary question. 🇩🇪🔴"Children no longer want to go to daycare out of fear."

AfD domestic affairs expert Hess says the connection between mass immigration and growing dangers inside schools is clear. 🇦🇹🚨Mass immigration DESTROYING Austria's education system🔺Around 70% of school-age children in Vienna do not speak German in their everyday life. 39%, or nearly 80,000 children, do not have Austrian citizenship,🔺Teachers are quitting schools in Vienna "in droves" over mass… — Remix News & Views (@RMXnews) July 22, 2024 'These worrying developments are a direct result of the irresponsible mass immigration of recent years,' he told Junge Freiheit. 'Anyone who allows millions of culturally alien young men into the country and believes that integration will happen on its own is endangering internal security and social peace.' Hess told the German news outlet that there needs to be a 'rethink' on the issue. 'We need effective border controls, the decisive deportation of criminal foreigners, and an end to the ideologically motivated multicultural experiment,' said the former police instructor. The state must 'once again be a sanctuary for citizens, not an educational project of left-wing utopians.'

US Clears Doctor Over Fake COVID Vaccination Cards
U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondi has dropped all charges against a Utah physician who was accused of issuing fake vaccination cards and destroying thousands of vials of mRNA vaccine. 58-year-old plastic surgeon Dr. Kirk Moore was facing up to 35 years in prison after being charged with conspiracy to defraud the government; conspiracy to convert, sell, convey and dispose of government property; and aiding and abetting in those efforts by the Biden administration's Department of Justice (DOJ). Moore was accused of throwing away $28,000 worth of government-provided COVID-19 vaccine and providing at least 1937 fraudulently completed vaccine cards in return for cash or a donation to a specified charitable organization. The physician was also accused of injecting children with saline solution, at their parents' request, rather than with the vaccine. Moore's attorneys had argued that the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) regulations that were in place were unconstitutional and Bondi, in a post on X, said, ' Dr. Moore gave his patients a choice when the federal government refused to do so. He did not deserve the years in prison he was facing. It ends today.

The plastic surgeon and another co-defendant pleaded not guilty to the charges while one co-defendant entered into a plea agreement for a misdemeanor charge and another co-defendant entered into a diversion agreement. According to CBS News, the DOJ did not respond to questions as to whether the charges for the co-defendants would be dropped as well. Following the dismissal of the charges, an emotional Moore described why he took the actions he did to help those who wished to avoid the shot that was being pushed on them against their will, describing it as 'doing what's right.'

Youth Gang Terrorizes Small German Town, Vigilante Patrol Group Forms To Protect Children
The small German town of Harsefeld is grappling with a severe breakdown of public order, as a youth gang's reign of terror has led to hospitalizations, extortion, and drug dealing. The situation has become so desperate that citizens are being forced to form a vigilante patrol group, highlighting a perceived failure of the state to protect its own people. What was once a tranquil Lower Saxon town has now become a hotbed of controversy after a youth gang's actions led to the formation of the patrol group. Videos of the gang in operation have shocked the town and led to national headlines in Germany. In one video, the suspects' faces are blurred, but one teen is severely beating his victim. There are also apparently other videos the group has uploaded online, in what some believe is an effort to boast of their acts and intimidate others. 🇩🇪‼️ Two migrant teens living in Germany have been charged with murder more than three months after 30-year-old Martin K. was kicked to death in the 18-year-old Tunisian national and 16-year-old Moroccan set upon their victim in the city of Paderborn in the early… — Remix News & Views (@RMXnews) August 16, 2024 The gang has been active for at least six months, with incidents ranging from beatings and threats to near-fatal attacks at the train station. These are not acts of youthful exuberance but brutal violence, seemingly with no regard for human life. The official response, so far, has been silence, denial, and victim blaming. The extensive list of crimes—extortion, drug trafficking, and violent assaults—reads more like a major city crime report than a situation in a town of 14,000. Local media outlets, including the Stader Tageblatt and NDR, have reported on the crisis. In addition, national outlets Focus Magazine and Bild have reported on the story. The police response has been criticized as dismissive, with authorities citing staffing shortages. The Harsefeld police station is reportedly closed intermittently, forcing emergency calls to be rerouted to Buxtehude. This 15-kilometer distance means patrols often arrive long after perpetrators have fled. A police spokesperson's statement, 'We are responsible for everyone,' does not appear to hold up to scrutiny, as parents and citizens are forced to form their own patrol groups. 🇩🇪🇦🇫"That was for Afghanistan!"An Afghan migrant smashes a bottle over a young German teen's head, leaving him screaming in pain. The German appears unprepared for the blow, standing nonchalantly before the the Afghan migrant celebrates for the camera. — Remix News & Views (@RMXnews) June 16, 2025 The police spokesperson, Rainer Bohmbach, labeled these patrol groups as 'quite creepy' while simultaneously appearing unable to stop the violent thugs operating in the town. 'Yes, of course, we find that quite creepy. A vigilante group doesn't help anyone. It's more likely that we'll end up in the realm of vigilantism,' said Bohmbach. He is warning against the formation of such groups. School administrators and the youth welfare office have raised alarms about the gang, resorting to warning letters and calls for discussion groups and social workers, but when it comes to minors, legal action is often difficult in the German system. 🇩🇪 2 young Germans were brutally attacked with bottles by 2 Tunisians in victims are seriously people are bearing the brunt of mass immigration on the streets, in the clubs, and in the 2 Tunisians have reportedly already been released. — Remix News & Views (@RMXnews) July 10, 2025 One key perpetrator, a known repeat offender, reportedly even engaged in a 'pleasant conversation' with the mayor before the holidays. The mayor, who has known the boy for years, expressed shock at the violence but chose to 'listen calmly,' an approach that appears to have no effect. Police are reportedly well aware of who the two gang leaders are, both of whom have been known since 2023, with approximately 15 reported crimes each — a number likely lower than the true figure due to victims' fear of reporting. Despite known perpetrators and clear video evidence, no court cases have been initiated. The official explanation: 'Investigations are ongoing, but it's taking time.' Meanwhile, the victims are piling up in the small town, as they have in various other towns and cities across Germany. This lack of action has driven citizens to form a vigilante group, conducting their own patrols and recording incidents — exactly what authorities publicly warn against. Yet, authorities say they lack the resources to combat the group. The nationality and names of the suspects have not been released, as no court cases have been initiated. Even if convicted, both teens are minors, and their identities are unlikely to ever be released.
