Instead of trying to live out her days as a pillar of her community, Ola Mae Agee, 87, opted to "enrich" her environment by selling crack cocaine. The octogenarian was busted last Thursday on video for trying to sell the illegal drugs to an undercover officer.
The senior was arrested after she sold a $20 piece of crack to the officer back on April 30. Escambia County, Fla., investigators caught the entire drug sale on a surveillance tape. The video reveals how the officer knocked on Agee's back door. The retired janitor is then seen letting the undercover cop into her home and walking him through various rooms until she gets to a sofa. The woman is then seen rummaging through the piece of furniture until she finds the crack cocaine. The deputy is seen doling out $20 and some additional change to the elderly woman; she then hands over the crack.
Agee is also viewed holding a bag of crack cocaine. The deputy did not know how much of the illegal drug was actually in the bag.
If you think this is Agee's first bust, then you are mistaken. It seems that the Pensacola, Fla., resident has managed to build up quite a nifty drug arrest record for herself.
Pleading no contest in December 1996 to possession of a controlled substance with intent to sell, manufacture or deliver, Agee, who was 75 years old at the time, served a two-year probation that ended in July 1998. She was cuffed yet again in February 1999 for possession of cocaine with intent to distribute, but the charges were subsequently dropped.
Family members escorted the elderly woman to jail. Due to her age, Agee was processed, but then authorities decided to release the woman on her own recognizance.
Agee is actually not the oldest person to get busted for selling crack. In 2004, a 96-year-old senior from North Carolina was arrested for selling the illegal substance from her home, along with other family members.

Poor old thing. She probably does not even realize how dangerous the drugs she's selling is. I say show some compassion with an elderly lady like this. Someone probably using her as a front person anyway because she dont look suspicious.

You are right Arneader. I just feel sorry for her. This is one of the many times I am glad I am not a judge.

amy wilson, I disagree a crime is a crime and criminal is a criminal despite the age. Do you mean that when and if you or I reach her age we can go ahead and do something illegal? I have no pity for anyone who knowingly does something that is obviously against the law. She knew what she was doing because she was arrested several times before. Should she be incarcerated? I say yes she should.

Well Spencer I know you are right. I guess I just wish she hadnt done it (again). As I said in answer to Arneader I am sure glad I am not a judge. It makes me all the stronger in my conviction that congress should be ashamed of themselves for not giving SS recipients a cost of living raise. I know that doesnt mean she has to sell crack but I feel her.
