    Story is here.

    ATLANTA - Furious that their romance was ending, a 78-year-old great-grandmother shot her 85-year-old ex-beau to death as he read the newspaper in a senior citizens home, police said.

    ?I did it and I?d do it again!? Lena Driskell yelled to officers who arrived at the home June 10, according to testimony. Police said she was wearing a bathrobe and slippers, waving an antique handgun with her finger still on the trigger.

    She is accused of plotting the shooting of Herman Winslow because she was angry that their yearlong romance was ending and he had found another companion.


    Sounds like a real winner.

    No wonder she's 78 and single.

    "Sweetie, could you bring your poor grandma a nice revolver?"

    "Why, Grandma?"

    "Oh, I just want to kill that cheating bastard Herman. Just make sure those fascist nurses don't see you give me the gun."
