Man Fatally Stabs Grandson in Self Defense

CRESCENT CITY, Fla. — An 89-year-old man who fatally stabbed his grandson did so in self-defense, authorities in Putnam County said.

An investigation done by the sheriff's and State Attorney's offices determined Tuesday that Howard Grisham killed his grandson during an altercation in September.

Police said Jared Thorn, 22, lived with his grandfather in Crescent City. Thorn was charged with aggravated battery in June after he pushed Grisham's 75-year-old wife to the ground.

Grisham was taken to a hospital with injuries suffered during the fight and was later released. Thorn died from a stab wound to his stomach.

Grisham is a former Putnam County commissioner who served one four-year term before being voted out in 2000.

No doubt. I can't either. Anyone who beats up on their grandparents deserves to be hung.

I agree, but not as an initial action, Hanging shouldn't take place until all of us, whose Grandfolks have passed, have the opportunity to either horsewhip him, or get two solid swings with a 4# sledge at any location 6" above the iliac crest and lower.

I want the tops of the feet. Please save them for me. I'll polish the sledge up nice and purty.
If you are unwilling to give another man freedom in his life, do not expect to have it in your own.
It surely beats trying to figure out what the metrosexuals want ( a good hard kick in the nuts in my opinion, but that won't sell ice cream :D )- Highspeed

+1. My two swings will require an upward stroke, I think. That, or the shins.
