Poets always say that when in love we behave foolishly, and that young lovers are the most foolish of all. But what about older lovers? Are they more sensible when they fall in love? Maybe not.
You see, an unidentified (No need to embarrass a woman in love) 70-year-old Japanese woman has gone on trial for bombarding a 79-year-old man with over 200 love letters, repeatedly cleaning his family tombstone and breaking a stalking ban, media reported over the weekend. Prosecutors in the case told a court in Ibaraki prefecture in eastern Japan that she had forced her way into the man's home seven times between July and October last year despite being ordered to stay away by police.
They also told the judge the woman had sent 206 love letters and cleaned the man's family grave site 85 times. After the prohibition order was issued, she then demanded 1.25 million yen ($10,300) from him for the amount she had paid to get a driver's license to travel to his home and for petrol costs. Ah ha! A 70 year old gold digger!( Or is it "gravedigger"?) Later, the hot to trot woman reportedly started sending threatening letters to the man, saying "If it comes down to it, you could die,".
Prosecutors are seeking a 10-month jail sentence because they believe there is a high chance the defendant could commit another offense.
Hmmmmmmm Maybe they should just take the wheels off her wheelchair?
