According to NJ.com, New Jersey cops executed a month long investigation in order to arrest a 71-year-old Grandmother. Newark resident, Eudean McMillan, is the aforementioned ‘Gangsta Granny‘. Eudean was primarily dealing drugs such as oxycodone for up to $20 a pill. In order to protect her supply, cops state that she kept a .38-caliber handgun with her as well as a sawed-off shotgun. To her credit, officers described McMillan as being non-violent, cooperative and friendly, which will hopefully help her case. A veteran city officer who helped take down Eudean claimed that this was the “most unusual bust of my career.”
The most compelling part of the story is the fact that Eudean would offer juice boxes as well as snacks to her buyers. Nothing washes oxydone down, quite like a Capri Sun. What screams ‘grandmotherly’ more than offering snacks and drinks to the nice young people. Can’t teach an old dog new tricks, I guess.
When Police searched Eudean’s home, they allegedly found $3,100 in cash, 165 pills and the pistol and sawed-off shotgun. And to think, all of this could have been avoided if McMillan had listened to Biggie.
Let this story serve as a reminder that the elderly are just as capable of selling drugs as you and I. I don’t’ want to hear any of that ‘old people don’t have the energy to compete with their younger drug-dealing counterparts’ ageist bull crap.
