This is one of the craziest incidents I have ever heard of and leads me once again to ask what is wrong with our kids today?

These two girls lived a few blocks away from the house that they allegedly broke into in the early hours of the night on July 5th while Sheila Wells slept and her husband was at work.

They took her son and a stroller, clothes and diapers and disappeared. About 6 a.m. a knock on the door woke up Sheila Wells and she answered the door only to find the 12 year old girl there at the door.

She told her that they had her son at the house so they both left to go and get Brandon back. Upon returning home she called the police and found the note the girls had left on her couch when they took her son.

It said not to call the cops and to leave 200,000 on the couch and her son would be returned unharmed. It seems that after the girls took the boy, they returned to their home where their mother recognized the child and made the 12 year old go and get Brandon’s mother Sheila.

Which is why she came knocking at 6 a.m. Thankfully the girls mother had the sense to not cover for her kids and put an end to what would have been a real nightmare for Sheila Wells when she awoke to find her son kidnapped.

In the end the story has a semi happy ending, the child was unharmed and will be fine. The part that makes this less than a happy ending is the idea that children would perpetrate such a crime.

Stay safe a keep your doors locked!
