Ashes to ashes
It was very sad at my gran's funeral.
We said goodbye, we cried.
And then we got very angry, because apparently 'they' are thinking of dropping the case against 'mad-poisoning-man' because he is so old. Nothing to do with lack of evidence.
This man is still living in the sheltered housing where he poisoned my gran. The warden says he had done it before, and is pretty sure he'll still be doing it. They don't want him there poisoning other vulnerable old ladies any more.
For my own part, I appreciate, if he is found guilty, that any punishment should take account of his age, and a custodial sentence is probably inappropriate. But I think he should be tried, I really do.
So now we have to decide, if the police drop their case, do we take out a civil action? It distressing for us all, especially my dad who wants to do right by his mum.

Woah! So THAT'S how you commit the perfect crime? Wait until you're old and then do whatever the hell you want, and not be held accountable.
Damn... who knew it was THAT easy?
((hugs))
ouch, what a horrible situation to be in, and what a horrible way for your gran to die. she was treated badly in hospital and now it appears that people, other than those closest to her, aren't bothered about the way she died.
i hope that you all find a solution to this and that the grieving ends soon. xxx
