| Granny got tasered
Wed Jun 30, 3:33 AM
By The Associated Press
OKLAHOMA CITY - An 87-year-old grandmother subdued by police with a stun gun while she ywas lying in bed hooked up to an oxygen machine is suing her Oklahoma hometown.
Attorney Brian Dell said Tuesday that he filed the lawsuit June 21 on behalf of his client, Lona Varner. He did not specify the amount she's seeking from the city of El Reno but said it's at least $75,000.
Varner's grandson called the emergency dispatcher on Dec. 22 and said his grandmother "wanted to end her life" and that he was concerned she had taken some unknown medicine.
Officer Thomas Duran says in a police report that Varner pulled a kitchen knife from under her pillow and threatened to stab and kill him if he tried to take her from her home.
The report says another officer used a stun gun on Varner.

tasering a bed-ridden 87yr old grandma who's hooked up to an oxygen tank; he's going to be getting laughed @ in the locker room for years...
The article doesn't have any information really... like did the officer try to reason with her to put the knife down? etc etc etc so you can't really come to a POV about it

If an officer can't take the knife off an 87 year old gramma who is lying in bed... he doesn't deserve to be an officer. Maybe she had a shirt on that said "I am a Motherfucker"
Berz out.

Berz out. | Sure, she's old, but one wrong/sudden move and you could be on the wrong end of that knife... Using the tazer was the safer thing to do from the officer's POV!

One wrong move, and the knife could have ended up in the officer's eye socket or penetrated his cheeks. The granny deserved it.
