Police seized a large amount of marijuana from Jerry Van Dorsey of Vinita, Oklahoma. When they questioned him about where he got it, he said he got it from his mother.
His mother, Darlene Mayes is 73 years-old...look at that face...say it ain't so!
Dorsey told police he "introduced his mother to the world of drug-dealing, but that she tried to cut him out of business because of his meth use".
He said his "mom cheated him out of a horse trailer and that he took the marijuana from her because it was the only way he knew to make up for the loss of the trailer".
Dorsey said he introduced his mother to the people from whom she gets the marijuana. He says he and his mom were in the drug business together.
Unfortunately, it is true..Mayes was arrested on April 10 and charged Tuesday with possession of a controlled dangerous substance with an intent to distribute and drug possession without tax stamp in Craig County District Court.
A drug task force served a warrant on Mayes on April 9. They searched the house and found and seized $276,538 in cash, six one-gallon plastic bags of marijuana, a marijuana pipe and a 9mm pistol.
Police say the cash was all over the house and not really hidden. Cash was under a bed in a bag and in a bag in the closet.
Mayes, a former employee of the Department of Human Services in Craig County, has lived all of her 73 years without a criminal history...until now. Mayes posted a $20,000 bond and she was released from jail on April 11.
This is just another example of elderly drug dealers busted in the past few years. Granny was probably just trying to supplement her social security benefits. Nothing is gained by putting this woman in jail.
Dorsey is charged with dealing drugs and a few lesser charges. Now that it is known he snitched on his mother, being charged is the least of Dorsey's worries. Dealers who sold to his mother will be looking for him and if he goes to jail, he had better watch his back...snitches are hated in prison.
I can see it now...Movie of the Week: "Gunga Granny" starring Cloris Leachman as Granny.
Peace

Wife Buried Husband in Herb Garden
For months, Barbara Scott's neighbors and her daughter asked where her husband was. She told them Benny Scott had returned to Oklahoma, where they previously lived, and told relatives in Oklahoma he had throat surgery and could not answer the phone.
Barbara Scott, who lives in Okla, Florida, kept getting her stories of her husband's disappearance more and more twisted until her daughter, who lives across the street, confronted her recently. The next day Scott went to the police station and told police her husband was buried in the back yard. She buried him beneath the oregano, banana peppers and basil in her garden.
In another report, according to Scott's attorney, Rafeal Escherendia, in January she found her husband dead. He said she buried him in the backyard because of the medication she was taking and that "she just made very poor choices on that day".
Her first poor choice was pronouncing him dead; he could have been in a coma. The second poor choice was burying him in the herb garden; it is illegal to dispose of a body that way. The third poor choice was lying to everyone about where he was. Obviously, she continued to make poor choices every day for two months.
All of this makes her very suspect. If he died of natural causes, why would she just bury him in the garden? If there was no foul play, why would she lie to everyone for months? The only way to know for sure is the autopsy report which is expected soon and will show the manner in which he died.
Update: Her attorney gives Scott's account of what happened:
Yes, it is difficult to find a rational excuse for irrational behavior.

Teenage Mom Kills Intruder
You're alone with your infant and someone is breaking into your home. You get your weapons...a shotgun and a pistol, barricade the door to the room and call 911. The call lasts for 21 minutes while someone tries to get in the doors of your home.

Sarah is a very brave young woman and so mature for her age. It's amazing how in control she seemed during the 911 call. Justin Shane Martin, 24, broke into her home; he had a knife in his hand when his body was found. She was protecting herself from imminent violence and the intruder got what he deserved.
Some in the media are stirring the pot by asking the question: Did the 911 operator tell Sarah to shoot Martin?
Sounds like the media is trying to find smoke where there is no fire. The operator told Sarah that she couldn't tell her what to do...but, to do what she needed to do to protect herself and her son...and that's what Sarah did.
Sarah would have done the same thing if she hadn't been on the phone with the 911 operator...anyone in their right mind would have shot him. No charges are filed against Sarah or the operator which is as it should be.
Too bad Sarah didn't get to shoot the second coward, Dustin Louis Stewart, 29, who ran away. He ran but he couldn't hide and he is charged with first-degree murder. That's right...when a death occurs during the commission of a crime, any and all perpetrators can be charged with murder. So he gets what he deserves, as well.
I know you are asking...why did it take police over 20 minutes to get to her home? She lives in a very rural area which is probably why she has (and knows how to use) a shotgun and a pistol.
According to reports, Martin and Stewart may have been looking for drugs. It took these nut jobs over 20 minutes to break in...they were probably already high.
