The campuses of the tech industry are famous for their lavish cafeterias, cushy shuttles, and on-site laundry services. But on a muggy February afternoon, some of these companies’ most important work is being done 7,000 miles away, on the second floor of a former elementary school at the end of a row of auto mechanics’ stalls in Bacoor, a gritty Filipino town 13 miles southwest of Manila. When I climb the building’s narrow stairwell, I need to press against the wall to slide by workers heading down for a smoke break. Up one flight, a drowsy security guard staffs what passes for a front desk: a wooden table in a dark hallway overflowing with file folders.

The pilot had been very patient but, after an hour of the plane waiting on the Tarmac at Heathrow, with my son Stephen refusing to get up off the floor, sit in his seat and buckle up, our bags were removed from the hold and he was carried off the flight, my husband Roy and I walking, hot-cheeked and humiliated, behind.

Our family holiday to Greece would not be going ahead, after all.

And no, Stephen was not an obstreperous toddler when this happened. He was 45 years old. This embarrassing scene happened two years ago and the episode is just one of the many challenges we have faced since Stephen, our second child, was born with Down's Syndrome.

Gone from Britain in 60 minutes: How criminal gangs are stealing prestige vehicles from wealthy homes and exporting them within AN HOUR

The organised criminals are targeting sought-after BMWs, Range Rovers (both top left), Audis and even trucks and diggers. The modern vehicles are often stolen using high-tech hacking equipment that means the thieves do not even need a key. They are driven into shipping containers (right) and exported to clients in Africa, Cyprus, the U.S. and even Malaysia and Burma. Some of the car theft rings are so sophisticated they can steal a car and get it out of the country in less than an hour. Police also discovered a container filled with valuable parts from at least 29 stolen BMWs that had been broken down (bottom left).

Jailed: Oscar Pistorius reacts as he is handed a five-year prison term for killing his girlfriend Reeva Steenkamp

The disgraced Paralympian wiped his eyes as he was handed a five-year prison term after the judge ruled that a non-custodial sentence would send the 'wrong message to the community'.

As he was led down to the cells, Miss Steenkamp's mother, June, smiled as she told of a sense of 'closure' after a seventh-month trial, but said it 'would not magic Reeva back.'

The model's ailing father, who suffered a stroke after his daughter's death, said he was 'very glad' the trial was over. A lawyer for the family said the sentence was 'welcome'.

The runner's sister Aimee briefly covered her head with a jacket and looked distressed. His family said he would not appeal the sentence.

Justice Is Served: Court Finally Overturns Marissa Alexander’s 20 Year Sentence

The appellate court ruling erased a decision by a jury that took just 12 minutes to convict Marissa Alexander, a mother of three, of aggravated assault

In another Florida shooting case that captured national headlines, an appellate court overturned the decision to put Marissa Alexander behind bars for 20-year prison sentence for firing a warning shot in proximity to her abusive husband.

The case has been often contrasted with the exoneration of white Hispanic George Zimmerman, the self-appointed neighborhood watchman who shot unarmed teen Trayvon Martin in a gate subdivision in suburban Orlando, Fla., two years ago.

The outrage on the two comparable cases sent social media into a frenzy and among some lawmakers on Capitol Hill.

Freddie Combs, an American minister, delivered one of the most shocking performances in the history of “The X Factor.” The 500-pound man, who has already lost 400 pounds after nearly dying, was wheeled out onto the stage by his wife. His arrival was a shock at first, but he joked to the judges, “Give a fatboy a chance.” Once he started singing, the stunned audience immediately did just that.

His performance of “Wind Beneath My Wings,” which he dedicated to his wife, was heavenly and impressive. All the judges was shocked and amazed by his strong voice, adding that you should never judge a book by its cover.
