Get off my lawn

The saga of Edna Jester continues. For those of you not familiar with the story, Edna is an 89 year old woman with an attitude.  Last week she refused to give back a football some neighborhood kids threw in her yard. Apparently this was a common occurrence, so finally the parents called the police on her.

When the police arrived, she refused to sign a citation, and told the police they would have to handcuff her. The didn't, but reluctantly took her to the police station. She was arrested and charged with petty theft.

She has gained fame in Cincinnati, and even received an invitation from the doctor Phil show. This morning, charges have been dropped. I heard a guy call into 700WLW who had been her neighbor for 15 years and he said she was awful to live next to. He told everyone not to pity her, because she is definitely not a sweet old lady. Good for Edna, I say. She should have been a nicer neighbor about it all, but it is the kid's responsibility to control their property from entering her yard. Congrats on not going to jail, Edna!
