Old blow

Man, what is it with the elderly and illegal drugs? Yesterday, we had the pot-growing granny. Now, check out this coke-dealin' oldster:
A 93-year-old man was charged with cocaine-trafficking Thursday, the same day police netted three other people on charges of possessing heroine [sic], opium and a slew of prescription drugs, police said Friday.

William C. Tinnen, also charged with possession of cocaine with intent to sell, was jailed before being released Friday on $200,000 bond, said Kammie Michael, spokeswoman for the Durham Police Department.

Tinnen also was sentenced for cocaine possession in 2001, and given a suspended sentence, Michael said.
It's nice to see old people keeping active.
