Woman Keeps Mother's Dead Body For Years to Claim Pension Benefits

She was sentenced to jail for one year - and rightly so. Her crime - She kept her mom's dead body for more than 6 years in her bed room and collected more than $230,000 in pension benefits.

The woman who was found guilty of theft of government funds is a 61 year old from Florida, Penelope Sharon Jordan.

It is reported that the theft of public money charge refers to Jordan collecting military pension benefits being sent to her mother for Col. Ashford Travis “A.T.” Jordan, her mother’s late husband, after her mother’s death. Ashford Jordan was a World War II veteran and city clerk for Sebastian, records show.

Jordan, an unemployed lady, was found to be very remorseful. “I was trying to ... keep a roof over my head and I take responsibility for what I did. It was wrong,” Jordan said in a low soft voice.

Whatever may be the reason behind it..... I feel keeping the dead body of her mother for ore than 6 years is something punishable.

The Tallest Teen In The World

He is only 13; but has a height of 7 feet 4.6 inches. And no doubt, the tallest teen in the world. And has the Guinness world record to prove that, if you wonder.

I wonder ~ where does a guy that size buy clothes?

At 7 feet 4.6 inches, Brenden Adams of Ellensburg, Washington, made it into the Guinness World Records 2010 book, released recently, as the tallest teenage boy, reports CNN.

If you think that he should be happy at achieving this fete, think about:

• Adams is having a hard time fitting into cars.
• as a kindergartner, he was taller than his teacher
• he wishes strangers wouldn't stare
• doesn't play basketball -- two knee replacements insured that

As he gets older, he should put some weight on him, and also "grow" into his body. Give him about 10 years.

What kind of bed does a 7'4" person have to get? I bet that's a pain. Custom bed. Custom sheets.
Heck, custom everything.

Burglar Leaves His Facebook Account Logged In : Caught

You can't imagine how helpful Facebook, the popular social network, can be! It can even assist in nabbing the culprit. But for this to happen, the miscreant should have to be too stupid, like this Jonathan Parker.

It was easy for the cops to nail Jonathan G. Parker, 19, of Fort Loudoun, Pa., of day time burglary in a House at Martinsburg. Reason? He left his Facebook account open on the victim's computer after committing the burglary, but before leaving the place.

A woman reported police that someone had broken into her home through a bedroom window and stole two diamond rings worth a total of $3,500. The victim later noticed that she was missing the rings from her dresser in the same room as her computer and the computer was found open with an unfamiliar Facebook account logged in.

It is reported that during the investigation, it was found that the victim and the suspect had a mutual friend, who admitted that Parker asked him to help him commit the crime.

Parker was arrested and is at the Eastern Regional Jail on $10,000 bail. If convicted, he may face upto 10 years prison term.

Now, the lessons you learnt : if you break-in, remember to log-out! Don't trust Parker to be in your Mafia Wars list. I don't know what his Facebook account is and I don't think you care to be in his friend's list!

Man Kisses Daughter - Lands In Jail

This man faces 8 to 15 years jail term. His crime - he kissed his daughter of only 8 years in public view.

This happened in a hotel's swimming pool in Brazil. The man in question (or being questioned) is an Italian. Witnesses told police that he touched the girl in an intimate way. But they were not aware that it was his daughter.

It is reported that under a strict new law aimed at fighting child abuse, he faces up to 15 years in prison, if convicted. The unnamed man has been in custody for almost a week.

BBC News reports that the north-east of Brazil has for some years had a problem of pedophiles travelling to the area, often from overseas, and strongly-worded warnings about the penalties for exploiting children are posted in most hotels.

Wife of the arrested tourist says that it is all due a simple misunderstanding. Lawyers are trying for his release. But do you think that the man will be freed?

Man Glued On Public Toilet Seat - Surgically Removed

It was a highly disgusting joke! Pranksters glued an elderly man's bottom to a toilet seat in the public loos at a shopping center, forcing him to sit tight during a highly embarrassing rescue.

This man had to face such an awkward incident in Cairns. Mistake he made? Nothing but using a public loo in a shopping mall. He was immediately stuck to its seat. Tried to detach himself from the seat; but in vain.

The man cried for help and was heard by the security men outside. Rescue workers were called immediately. He could not get off the seat at the scene without being injured, and he was taken to the hospital to have it surgically removed.

A Queensland Ambulance Service spokesman said the elderly man, who did not want to be identified, was "pretty distressed about the whole thing".

Cairns local government official Di Forsyth said the man was not injured but was "extremely embarrassed" by his experience. Understandably.

Police are looking for the pranksters. Forsyth identifies it rightly as a 'sick joke'.
