9/25/2013 - Bad Grandmas, wanna be Samurai, unusual storage locations and more!

     Grandmothers are stereotypically nice to their grandchildren.  However, Bill Cosby once told his children that they shouldn't be fooled by their grandmother's niceness. According to him, his mother was only acting nice now, because she was simply an old person who was trying to get into heaven. One grandmother took her efforts to be nice to her grandchild a bit to far recently when she allegedly threatened one of the witnesses that saw her grandson shoot another man.

    According a witness, the 31 year old grandson of Winter Haven woman Deborah Mobley Thompson, Kelvin Lewis Key-Herrington, shot someone on the morning of September 21st, fleeing the scene before officers arrived. Thompson then allegedly approached the witness shortly after the incident and threatened to assault him if her grandson was identified as the shooter.

     While the grandson is still at large, police arrested Thompson and charged her with obstruction of justice and tampering in a felony capital proceeding. She was booked into the Polk County Jail, where she is held without bond.
