Berlin, May 17: A 36-year-old German mother-of-five drove her son to a jewelry store he wanted to rob because she was afraid he may come to some harm, a newspaper reported Wednesday.
While her 17-year-old son and his two accomplices stabbed and robbed a jeweler in the eastern city of Dresden, the mother waited outside in the car.
"I knew he wanted to rob the shop and I was very worried about him," top-selling paper quoted the mother as saying.
A court sentenced the woman to three years and ten months in prison, a spokeswoman for the court said.
