Sometimes I think news sites run stories on old people just so they can use the term octogenarian. 826 stories pull up on google news search about 80 year olds, 397 on octogenarians. Why am I pointing this out? Who knows.

Nothing new. I remember similar stories during the height of the so-called "drug craze" in the sixties.

Lock her up, I don't care if she dies in prison, she clearly isn't going to stop and just think about how many lives she's ruined between 96 and now.


Also, one thing that doesnt add up in that article:

She's 87 in 2010
She's 78 in 1996

???





. . . now we know what Doc Brown was doing with his time machine . . .

Did she force people to use crack?No,she only sold.


If she didn't sell it than those people would find other suppliers.With your logic I should blame liquor stores for my alcohol problem.

Oh wait...those demons,damn those liquor stores!



But yea,I get your point.

I went to the link and only got the basic written story, and a video plug for Scientology.
I feel sorry that a granny had to resort to selling crack if indeed the story is true.

Hey, I don't agree with drinking either

Easier to catch those selling than those buying I guess!

Wouldn't put her in any sort of innocent light if she's been doing this for a while and been caught at it before . . .

Here's another news source:
