Sunday School Teacher held and charged for murder of 8 year old girl

What would make a human being kill a helpless 8-year-old child and stuff her in a suitcase? The murder of a schoolgirl, Sandra Cantu of Tracy, California has remained baffling to police authorities even as they've apprehended the lone suspect, Melissa Huckaby, a Sunday School teacher.

I watched the report over Fox News last night and it really ripped my heart when they showed a CCTV camera capturing the child skipping on her way to Huckaby's house, apparently to play with the suspect's 5-year-old daughter. She was full of life. Who could have known that she was about to meet her gruesome end that day?

Police are still investigating the motives behind the murder while the suspect is being held without bail.

13 year old kid now a dad

The world was shocked when this news came out. I myself wasn't even sure how to react. Two minors have become parents even before they could enjoy their youth to the fullest.

What's devastating is that two other boys have come forward to claim fatherhood to the baby named Maisie. They claim to have slept with the 15-year old mom Chantelle.

Alfie Patten, the 13-year old boy in the picture who is believed to be the real father of Maisie, is now reportedly distraught over the claims of the other boys. Who wouldn't be?

To end the issue, the young couple has agreed to undergo DNA testing. Whatever the outcome, it still boils down to one thing - they're too young to be parents.

Another shoe-throwing incident

It looks like protesters around the world have found a new way of getting their sentiments heard.

China's Prime Minister Wen Jiabao suffered the same fate as former US Pres. George W. Bush when a protester hurled a shoe at him while delivering a speech in Cambridge University, England at the end of his 3-day visit to Britain.

The protester, coming from the back part of the jam-packed auditorium called Wen a "dictator" before throwing his shoe, which missed target.

PM Wen's visit was reportedly marred with protests over human rights and Chinese policy in Tibet.

The protester was escorted to the police for questioning.

December last year, Former US Pres. Bush ducked out from behind the podium to avoid being hit by a shoe lobbed at him by an enraged reporter in Iraq. After the incident, the reporter, Muntadhar al-Zeidi, drew many supporters in his hometown that they even made a shoe sculpture in his honor.
