That's a Little Much

(AP) DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. (AP) - A Florida woman and her boyfriend have been charged with trying to sell her infant grandson for $30,000.

Florida Department of Law Enforcement agents arrested 45-year-old Patty Bigbee and 42-year-old Lawrence Works on Friday in Daytona Beach after they met with an agent posing as a buyer. Both were charged with illegal sale or surrender of a child, and Bigbee was also charged with communication fraud.

FDLE agent Wayne Ivey said an investigation began last month after an informant told authorities the woman was trying to sell the baby. Authorities say the woman originally wanted $75,000 but was talked down to $30,000.

The child's mother is currently incarcerated on unrelated charges.

The infant has been turned over to child welfare officials.

Authorities said they didn't know if Bigbee or Works had an attorney.



I've said it before and I'll say it again. You can't trust an old lady, they're shifty. Just look into their eyes and you know they are plotting something. It could be about how they are going to "accidentally" cut you in line, or how they will "mistakenly" stomp their cane on your foot, or they could be plotting to sell your children.

The most disappointing thing about this situation is the old lady couldn't even make the sale. If you're selling your grandson you might as well do it big. Don't wimp out. I bet she'd pay full price for a "solid gold" necklace from Chinatown too.

Unless it's the kid's fault for crying too much about going into white slavery. If so, that is just outright inconsiderate. Doesn't this kid care about his grandmother's well being at all? 75 G's can get granny a lifetime of all you can eat buffets at Golden Corral and all the Pall Malls she will ever need.

It's Just Medicine

A 62-year-old woman was arrested Wednesday for allegedly having 30 pounds of marijuana at her south Jackson home.

Millie Steverson is charged with possession of marijuana, possession of cocaine, possession of ecstasy, receiving stolen property and convicted felon in possession of a concealed weapon, Hinds County Sheriff Malcolm McMillin said.

The drug bust occurred at Steverson’s home at 2665 Milo Ave. following a tip by a concerned citizen, McMillin said.

Upon searching the home deputies discovered the marijuana, crack cocaine and ecstasy pills, a handgun and a stolen 2008 Lexus.

McMillin said the street value for the drugs is estimated at $200,000.

Steverson told authorities the marijuana was for personal use to treat her glaucoma, McMillin said.

Yeah that weed is for medicinal purposes only. Yep, all 30 pounds of it. Yeah the crack is too... and the ecstasy. Surprisingly enough, the combination of crack, ecstasy, and weed really makes the glaucoma easy to deal with.

You can really only stretch that lie so far. Does her glaucoma explain why she stole a Lexus and probably did so at gunpoint. She couldn't at least get a newer model? Let's be serious, if you're stealing a Lexus you have the get a '10 model. I bet all the other woman drug dealers in their 60's laughed at her.

Oldest on Earth

Would you tap that? Don't lie. You know you would. She's a slamming hotty. I'm calling it right here. Antisa Khvichava is going to be the next cover of Sports Illustrated's swimsuit edition. She's gorgeous but I'm biased. I've always had a thing for older women. I mean look at her with her tuberculosis rag. Nothing sexier.

Do you think she even gets horny anymore. When you're a 130 is absolutely everything life threatening? If she were to have sex I think it's really likely that she would be f***ed to death. But that's a pretty cool way to go out I guess. Maybe she's just waiting for that special someone, willing to have sex with the oldest thing alive.

Grandma's Girl

UNIONTOWN, Pa. (AP) - A southwestern Pennsylvania woman who denied leaving her 8-year-old granddaughter behind with stolen goods was ordered to stand trial on shoplifting charges. Elaine Weimer, 50, was ordered to stand trial on Wednesday on charges of retail theft, endangering the welfare of a child, and corruption of minors.

Workers at a Wal-Mart store in South Union Township testified they confronted Weimer about shoplifting on June 23. The girl returned $199 worth of items in reusable shopping bags she was carrying - but the employees said Weimer denied knowing the girl, got in her car and drove away.

The girl was not charged and told state police her grandmother told her "to get stuff for her grandmother and her grandmother made her hold the bags."

What granddaughter? I don't even have any children because I've never been with a man. That little girl must have stole all those things herself. You should really try to find her parents! Bye now!

Love this defense! This little girl must have looked ridiculous holding $200 worth of goods. How can you be so cold and desperate that you are willing to leave your granddaughter to take the rap. I actually had to read this article a few times before I fully understood what this old woman had done. She's like an evil grandmother from an early 90's Disney cartoon. Grandmothers are supposed to be sweet and give you candy you don't really want, like werthers, and write you small checks for holidays that they think is a lot of money, but really isn't. They are not supposed to frame you for shoplifting at Wal-Mart.
