CORNING, Calif.—The family of a dead elderly woman cremated her remains on a makeshift barbecue and continued collecting her retirement checks amounting to more than $25,000, authorities in Northern California said. Ramona Allmond's daughter and grandson were arrested Sunday on suspicion of embezzlement, elder abuse and disposing of a body without a permit. Allmond, 84, likely died of natural causes, though investigators were still trying to determine the exact cause of death, said Tehama County sheriff's Capt. Paul Hosler.  Investigators said the two kept collecting Allmond's monthly retirement checks, amounting to more than $25,000. Sheriff's Detective Richard Knox said they may have been trying to honor Allmond's desire to die at home and be cremated.

First of all I love how the cops are giving the daughter and precious little grandson (see above) the benefit of the doubt.  “Likely died of natural causes…”   “may have been trying to honor Allmond’s desire to die at home and be cremated…”   Hey Sgt Hosler, they fucking killed their grandma to collect her retirement money.  What is this Reno 911? I mean you don’t have to be there turning the spitfire and snorting her ashes to know that.  Just look at this guy, anybody with a tattoo of the Dairy Queen Blizzard on his face either lost a big bet in high school or is guilty of roasting his grandma on a barbeque.
