Meds

Pick out the criminal from this lineup:


CHUCK THE RIPPER



LITTLE OLD ESTELLE WEISENGERNER



TOBY "BOUND 'EM GAG 'EM AND BATHE IN THEIR ENTRAILS" ROBINSON

Trick question-all of them have criminal records. Chuck and Toby have obvious charges (Chuck for illegal ripping and Toby illegal bounding, gagging, and bathing in entrails), but in Appalachia, Little Old Estelle belongs to a crew of gray hairs heading into the burgeoning world of senior citizen drug peddling. Their game-reselling their prescription pain medication to junkies looking for an elderly high. I knew kids in college who were doing the same thing with their pain medication. So, here's the question:

Little Old Estelle Weisenhertz-Arch Nemesis of Justice or a Revolutionary Hero in the closing of our nation's generational gap?

Only time will tell. And, yes Virginia, both could be true.
