So, my total deadbeat uncle has now done it.
He ended up throwing a can at my 90 year old grandmother, who had a six inch cut (all the way to the skull, apparently). We've always suspected he abused her, but could never prove it...and she would never admit to anything.
So, obviously he was arrested and thrown in jail...but that's just the start. Apparently the authorities found *FIVE GUNS* in the house (no permits), and money everywhere. You do the math.
...and all this was going on next door to where I grew up. My parents and brother are lucky to be alive, I'm thinking.
You've got to believe that there's a special place in hell for people who abuse children and the elderly.
