Alabama Man Scams His Own Grandma
How low can you go? Preston Kelly low. Kelly, 23, sent his grandmother in Florence, Alabama a text saying he had been kidnapped, bound, gagged, & needed $1000 or he would be killed.
Granny contacted the authorities to help her grandson. They discovered it was all a hoax.
The grandson was arrested on multiple charges.
I'm disgusted that this young man would try & dupe his loving grandma. I'm also impressed that granny knows how to text.
