A 72-year-old woman is one of three members of a Green Cove Springs family now in jail, accused of selling marijuana.

The Clay County Sheriff's Office arrested Elnora "Granny" Layfield, along with Michael and Linda Layfield, last Friday in their Stauffer Street home. Officer seized approximately 30 bags of marijuana valued at $1,200 from the house.

Police said that undercover officers bought marijuana at the home on four separate occasions prior to issuing a search warrant. When officers entered the home, the elder Layfield was found sitting in a living room with several bags of marijuana.

"It's unusual to find someone her age selling pot, but she's not the first and probably won't be the last," said Lt. Larry Thompson, who heads up the Clay County Drug Task Force, which co-ordinates the efforts of the sheriff's office, the Green Cove Springs and Orange Park police departments.

All three suspects were charged with possession, sale and delivery of marijuana over 20 grams, a felony with penalties of up to five years in jail upon conviction.

Elnora Layfield has two prior drug-related charges.

"Maybe a little jail time will send a stronger message to her -- because probation isn't working," Thompson said.

Well, my self search indicates that I have done nothing but Dane bashing since Tuesday afternoon. I am assuming they haven't caught Sammy or Omar yet, so it looks like another slow news day.

I was thinking, do you supppose Granny is out on bond yet? I wonder if we could find out what is going on with her case.

Would you kindly show me where I wanted to take away your gun?

No,I just don't want 99% of America,walking around the streets packing a "rod".

How's that?

I'm sure she's out on bond but we could always contact the Clay County Sheriff's office to find out. Maybe Dane or Codie would like to do that.

You are no doubt aware that he later said he wants 100% of the populace armed, provided they only drink while "packing a rod" and abstain from marijuana?

I can guarantee you one thing, I would be a much better shot stoned than I would drunk.

Yes, and most likely more attentive to gun safety. Did you see the British study that found stoned people drove through an obstacle course better than the straight ones?

Sorry you keep getting all my replies, but I am trolling here...

And a junkie living on the street relates to a grandmother in her own house how???

As usual, your irrational fears and personal weaknesses overshadow your logic.

I can just see them bringing her in for her bond hearing. Orange coveralls with a shawl, leg irons, and a walker.

Give them a chance....they're still thinking - and it's a long, slow drawn-out process.

If not doing drugs leads to Dane's logic, I would not only advocate legalizing them, I would mandate thier use!

Yeah, and I'm sure they marched her in front of the cameras for a classic perp walk. They surely are very proud right now.

re : What happened is the bomber was on a bus with the bomb and it accidently went off.

I think I remember that case, I think the bomb was fired by a trembler device which moved during the ride.

London buses are very shaky and bumpy.

Your luck was in that day.

Cheers Tony

Dane seems to protest a little too much. I wonder if he scrambled his brains back in the 60's and now he has to overcompensate.

Good morning!! Seems Dane is not only humorless, he is linear! What a great day to be alive!!

Too, bad about Codie though. I hope the boy doesn't try brandishing his "rod" on other threads, when I see it again I won't be so nice.

I support the War on drugs.
I would also support a War on Aardvark Juggling. We all know it is a gateway activity which inevitably leads to Puppy Juggling. And Puppy Juggling is just plain wrong, especially if done in the middle of the street, by Carl Sagan... Oh yeah, I also believe that anything not expressly allowed by the constitution should be illegal. We should also all dress the same. I vote for Brown Shirts...

As a lurker keeping score:
Dane--- 0
Sane--- 451

Peace, eh?
