Old people these days… June 17, 2008

It only took five dead husbands for police to question the common denominator.

Betty Johnson (sounds like a grandmother you’d love to have, doesn’t it?) has finally been arrested after police have questioned her involvement in at least one of her husbands’ deaths.

The 76-year-old has been charged with the 1986 murder of her fourth husband.

So a lessen for us all — if your spouse has had at least three other spouses in his or her life, track them down. Make sure they’re alive. Or run like hell.
