Granny busted with crack, cash and guns

Memphis Police Bust Drug Dealing Granny

FAST FACTS:
Ms. Gus, that's what the neighbors on Davis Street call 71 year-old Jean Robinson. However, when undercover police officers served a warrant at her home they found she wasn't the average little old lady. According to police, the neat duplex surrounded by flowers and wind chimes on the outside was filled with crack cocaine, pills and guns on the inside.
"It threw me off for a minute because she's quiet. She's kept to herself and she's been in this neighborhood for many years," said one neighbor.
That neighbor didn't want to be identified but she saw police when they had to force their way into Robinson's home Friday night. They found Robinson with five bags of crack cocaine in her jacket pocket, 66 Oxycodone pills stuffed under the pillows on her couch. $4,000 in cash in her purse and $2,300 stashed underneath the living room couch. A 12 gauge shotgun with one round in the chamber and a .22 caliber revolver with two live rounds were also close by.
"Wow, I wouldn't think her. Like I said, she's always to herself. She's just a normal old lady so I wouldn't think her," said Keyarrow Gooden, neighbor.
Although some neighbors are surprised at Ms. Robinson's arrest, others are not. They say officers have raided the house before. Since 1991 we found the lady many thought of as the matronly figure in the neighborhood has picked up more than a dozen drug related charges. While we are there doing this story, a woman stops by, unaware of Robinson's arrest. She says she came to borrow money. We asked if she knew if drugs were inside the home. She said no and left.
Shocked or not this granny will be in court Monday morning. She has a $150 bond.
Robinson is charged with drug possession with intent to deliver crack cocaine, Oxycodone and two counts of possession of a dangerous weapon while committing a felony.
