OREM, Utah - When 70-year old Betty Perry was accused of neglecting her lawn, she became defieant.
Perry was arrested, handcuffed and briefly jailed in July for declining a ticket for failing to water her lawn.
She agreed on Friday to resolve her case by pleading guilty to a disorderly conduct charge and paying a $100 fine.
"For our part, it accomplishes what we set out to accomplish from the very beginning," prosecuter Andrew Peterson said.

And what exactly did the authorties accomplish by jailing an elderly woman over lawn maintenance? How pathetic.
