Joolz Posted August 24, 2007 Share Posted August 24, 2007 Betty Holt Walker's chest-high marijuana plant caught the eye of a Guilford County sheriff's deputy as he drove past her home last month. The deputy stopped, investigated, and found five smaller plants behind a shed, marijuana stems and seeds, and a water bong made from a soda bottle inside the 71-year-old's house. Captain Tony Caliendo says Walker told the deputy she found the first plant in her garden and repotted it, calling it a special plant used to keep animals out of her front yard. Law officers didn't buy the explanation and arrested Walker. She is due in court September 12th to face charges of manufacturing marijuana and felony possession of marijuana. www.wtkr.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scribb|e Posted August 24, 2007 Share Posted August 24, 2007 (edited) Woman, 71, arrested after growing pot in her yardBy Amy Dominello Staff Writer Thursday, Aug. 23, 2007 9:07 am Betty Holt Walker GREENSBORO - A 71-year-old woman was arrested for growing marijuana plants in her front yard. On Aug. 11, a deputy was driving past Betty Holt Walker's home at 3324 Horse Pen Creek Road when he noticed a more than four-foot tall marijuana plant in a five-gallon pot in the front yard, Capt. Tony Caliendo of the Guilford County Sheriff's Department said. Walker told the deputy she found the plant in her garden and repotted it. She said it was a special plant used to keep animals away from her garden. But, Caliendo said, "this wasn't something that was meant to keep animals away." The deputy found five plants between nine and 12 inches tall behind a shed, he said. Inside the home, the deputy found marijuana stems, seeds and a water bong made from a soda bottle. Walker was charged with manufacturing marijuana and felony possession of marijuana. She was arrested and released on a written promise to appear in court. Her court date is Sept. 12. A daughter who lives in the home was unaware the plants were in the yard and was not charged, Caliendo said.
