Sex-trafficked teen's mom sues school for allegedly hiding kid's transition, leading her to run away

The mother of a teenager who was sex trafficked is suing the Virginia school district her child attended, blaming the school for allegedly hiding her child's transition from female to male and causing the teen to run away and be captured by a sex trafficker.
Appomattox County Public School officials hid Sage Blair’s transition from her parents, including that she was being bullied for dressing as a boy, the lawsuit filed last week by her mother, Michele Blair, states.
The events and secrecy led Sage to run away from her home in rural Virginia and she was later captured by a sex trafficker who took her to Washington, D.C., and Baltimore, Md., where she was drugged and raped by multiple men, according to the lawsuit.
Disturbing.

Padres’ Manny Machado destroys coolers in dugout meltdown vs Brewers
https://www.foxnews.com/sports/padres-manny-machado-destroys-coolers-dugout-meltdown-brewers
The coolers in the San Diego Padres dugout were out of commission in the top of the seventh inning Sunday after third baseman Manny Machado took out his frustrations on them with his bat.
Machado found himself in a prime position to get his Padres, who have struggled mightily to reach their high expectations this season, back into the game against the Milwaukee Brewers on the road. The Brewers had just put up seven runs in the bottom of the sixth to take a 9-4 lead, so runs were needed.
The Padres scored two runs to make it 9-6 thanks to some poor pitching by Brewers reliever Abner Uribe, who was ultimately taken out for Hoby Milner with runners on second and third and nobody out.
Juan Soto popped out to shortstop Willy Adames, which led to Machado in the box. Machado, though, had the same fate as his teammate before him: Popping out in a big spot. Carlos Santana secured the out at first base, and Machado walked back into the dugout in disgust with his at-bat.
Talk about a meltdown.
