Grandma Caught Slingin’ Rock


Here’s a lovely little tidbit I found today. I once smoked weed with my buddy’s seventy-five year old grandmother, (“This is some good shit,” she remarked as she inhaled deeply.) but Ms. Ola Mae really takes the cake. I found the article on about.com. The author is Sean O’Reilly.


PENSACOLA, FL -- An 87-year-old Escambia County woman is out of jail after being arrested for selling crack cocaine.

Ola Mae Agee is charged with one felony count of selling cocaine after deputies say she sold a $20 piece of crack to undercover deputies.

The Sheriff's Office conducted an undercover narcotics investigation over the past month in the area of East Desoto Street and Dr. Martin Luther King Drive in Pensacola.

Investigators say surveillance video shows an undercover officer knocking on the back door of Agee's house located on the 900 block of MLK Drive. Deputies say Agee answered the door and took the officer to a room in her house where she retrieved crack from a couch and exchanged it for money.

Investigators believe Agee wasn't the only person selling crack cocaine from her home. Deputies executed a search warrant at Agee's residence on Thursday in their ongoing county-wide narcotics investigation.

Sgt. Ted Roy, a spokesperson for the Sheriff's Office, said deputies suspect the other people who sold crack at Agee's house also sold cocaine from other homes throughout Escambia County. Detectives anticipate making additional drug-related arrests stemming from this investigation.

Family members took Agee to the Escambia County jail so she could turn herself on an outstanding warrant. Roy said Agee was released on her own recognizance because of her age.

Agee had no criminal record prior to her arrest on Thursday.
