And here all this time I thought they might have been on their way to Kentucky. I had been on the lookout for them. You know, I wanted to do my "civic duty" and all. With this in mind, I have spent hours carefully "studying" Lee Grace's photo stream on Flickr, which includes the following photo, among many others.
The problem started when one of the brothers, Ryan, was put on ten years probation for sexual battery of an eleven year old girl, whom he was charged with sending explicit text messages. He had a previous criminal record for burglary, and other charges. Lee Grace herself had a long record, mainly for assault, including once of a police officer. The other brother, Dylan, didn't have much of a record, just one charge for possession of marijuana. It was Ryan's problems that set the group off. They loaded up their weapons and headed to the hills of Colorado. In between, they robbed a bank and engaged in a chase and shoot out with police which took them from Georgia to Tennessee, where the trio of siblings eluded their pursuers. Their mother made an impassioned plea for them to turn themselves in, but it wasn't until they were spotted purchasing outdoors equipment at a sporting goods store in Colorado that the law had any idea where they were. It had previously been presumed they were hiding out in Tennessee.
Now they're gone to prison, for a long, long time, this trio of hellcat rednecks who were determined to live free or die if necessary.
Film at eleven. And another doubtless soon to come to a theater near you.
