An Israeli ultra-Orthodox Jewish couple is facing possible charges of negligence after leaving behind their four-year-old daughter at the Ben-Gurion airport in Israel on Sunday to take a vacation in Paris, France. Airport investigators said the couple, whose names were being withheld, were late for their flight to Paris on Sunday and rushed to the gate with their five children. Because of their mad dash to the gate, the parents forgot about their four-year-old daughter and learned she was missing after being told about it by flight attendants in mid-air.

An English couple who schemed to fake the husband's death in order to collect the insurance money has been sentenced to more than six years each in prison. The plot of the deceitful couple began to unravel in December 2007, five years after John Darwin and his wife conspired to fake his death in a canoeing accident, when John, 57, walked into a London police headquarters saying he had amnesia.

A secret door which led to the hideaway of "canoe man" John Darwin during the years he was "missing" was discovered by the current tenant of the former Darwin residence. The passageway was in a cupboard with a fake wall, which opened to a passageway to a small living space. Police believe that Darwin would go from the bedroom he shared with wife Anne, and go down the passage into the room, whenever Anne would have visitors.
