Small Bits of News You Didn’t Know you Needed
5 year-old Was Behind Burglary
Police investigating a burglary at a kindergarten in Romania were shocked to find the mastermind was a five-year-old boy
Officers, in Jirlau, Braila county, were called to investigate the break in after the caretaker found a back window broken.
They found several rooms had been ransacked and initially thought the burglars were searching for petty cash.
But, after talking to staff, they discovered all that was missing was part of the nursery's collection of toys.
Detectives questioned neighbors and two boys, aged five and 13, who live nearby, admitted to the crime.
The younger boy told police he "missed his toys and just couldn't wait till school term starts again in September".
He convinced his older friend to come with him to the kindergarten where they broke in, stuffed two bags with toys and left.

Mom Gets 99 Years - Son Gets To Be A Girl
A Houston-area mother convicted of mutilating her infant by cutting off his genitals two years ago was sentenced Monday to 99 years in prison.
But minutes after the jury's sentence was read, Katherine Nadal, 28, yelled out that she did not hurt her son, prompting the boy's father to storm out of the courtroom.
Jurors deliberated for two hours Monday night before returning the sentence, which also included a $10,000 fine. The same jury had convicted her last week of first-degree felony injury to a child.
The jurors chose among possible sentences ranging from probation to life in prison. Nadal, who shook her head as the jury foreman read the sentence, will have to serve at least 30 years before she is eligible for parole.
