A 39-year-old grandmother accused of selling heroin on the streets of a Los Angeles suburb with her 11-year-old granddaughter as a lookout has been arrested on drug and child endangerment charges, police said on Tuesday.
Undercover officers watched for two weeks as Martha Gutierrez Novas sold heroin at a bus stop in Long Beach, south of Los Angeles, clutching a brown and white Chihuahua and often with her granddaughter at her side, a police spokesman said.
"The granddaughter acted as a lookout, standing at the corner of the building looking, I assume, for police officers," said Sgt. Paul LeBaron, a Long Beach spokesman. "It's horrible. Absolutely horrible. I've never seen anything this blatant. She just didn't even care."

Maybe she'll be a great-granny by her 50th birthday.

She’s selling dope with her 11 year old granddaughter.. I’d put great grandma by age 44, at the outside. My guess is that in a day when grandma is out on the streets again, she makes sure her granddaughter starts watching Cops episodes, because she’s not a great lookout.

If her grand daughter follows tradition, she’ll be a great-grandma at 42.
It boggles the mind.

You know, this could be a math problem in future text books. Instead of "Jack bought five apples in a store. How many more apples did Jack need for a dozen?" we can replace that with "Mrs. Gutierrez Novas was a grandmother at age 39 and her only granddaughter was 11. At what age did Mrs. Gutierrez Novas become a grandmother?"

That’s beyond incredible, that is frightening.

50, please... she was 14, her kid was 14 now her grandkid is 11, she'll prolly be one in three years.

LeBaron said that Novas' immigration status was under investigation and that Child and Family Services officials were also probing the matter. He said Novas also sometimes sold drugs with her 4-year-old granddaughter present. Neither child was charged.
