Old Cars and Old Lace? Elderly Ladies Murder for Money!
Topic: Weird Shit

Are two octogenarians responsible for the hit and run deaths of two homeless men to gather over $2 million in life insurance? It would appear to be so. The two women offered them shelter and an apartment for up to two years while using their signatures to open over a dozen insurance policies on each and naming themselves the beneficiaries.

Then their Oldsmobiles would strike.

Both of the men were struck by vehicles in early morning hours in cases that mirrored each other and arose suspicions, especially after the women filed over $3.8 million in insurance claims and collected $2.4. Now they're going to be tried for insurance fraud, murder and conspiracy to commit murder and could face up to 160 years in prison.

So what do we learn from this awful series of events? That our society is so jaded we can't even trust old people anymore.
