Tl;dr: 75-yo old woman attacks the employees over a sandwich, rips hair from one of them, put that hair in her purse, calls the police and dies.
At that point, two other employees intervened, and as they were pulled apart, a “chunk of hair” was pulled from the shift lead’s head, “leaving a raw area.”
Once separated, the employees got behind the counter and Grayson sat down, taking a phone call. She was seen picking up the shift lead’s hair and putting it in her bag, police said.

Elderly woman has a total breakdown due to medical condition and somehow that’s not the headline. This could be a real conversation about how elder care and how maybe it isn’t a great idea to have the elderly in charge of things unless they’re under constant medical supervision. Instead the top comment is “over fucking a sandwich- what a bitch!” Anita Grayson may have lived like a saint for all we know. At least, up until her body breaking down causes psychosis - which can happen to literally any one of us.
What a fucking stupid society.
Well in this particular case, the granddaughter came out and said she was a total bitch all her life, so… maybe it wasn’t psychosis in this case?
Okay thats hilarious.
I hope the funeral wasn’t honoring her life, but roasting the shit out of her
Source for that? I can only find some statements from the daughter.
You’re drawing your own inferences from who knows where. Cardiac psychosis can be something that could (rarely) occur in late stage CHF patients. Those folks can barely move around at that point though.
This woman did aggravate her serious medical condition, though, and I’m willing to believe she didn’t have a complete understanding of it.
I say this being in full agreement we need better healthcare in the US. But I’ve also seen people with access to great care who just didn’t give a shit about the recommendations of their doctors. People are complicated.
i haven’t been able to get an MD to even open my medical records and look at them, let alone read them, for 15 years. i don’t give a shit what my doctors say either, they haven’t put in the requisite work to be allowed an opinion on my healthcare.
I’m sorry that’s your experience, that’s insane.
Have you considered fighting fire with fire and becoming a doctor and eventually becoming their doctor and then being a bad doctor?
i don’t need a cocaine habit, no
Yeah I’m sure it’s an elder care issue and not the fact that she was a miserable asshole her entire life.
Nothing is ever anyone’s fault.
Ehh, there’s a not-insignificant chance someone of that age with vascular problems may have dementia, which does a number on people’s personalities.
Literally nothing in the article says anything about psychosis, what are you talking about?
There is literally nothing in the article about psychosis.
You are writing prose based on nothing but your desire to muddy the water and refusal to believe someone old cant be a fucking aggressive asshole just because they are simply an asshole.
And let me tell you, Plenty of young, aggressive assholes grow into old aggressive assholes who are still convinced they can slap people around and get what they want, like they did with their children when they were 4.
Except the part where the lady died. That was a hint. People who are actively dying rarely behave “normally”.
Yes, why wont we have any sympathy for the poor woman. Those dirty employees should have just taken her verbal and physical abuse. HAVE THEY NO RESPECT FOR THEIR BETTERS?!
SHE WOULDNT HAVE DIED IF YOU’D HAVE JUST LET HER BEAT YOU, YOU PEASANT! 😭
It must be so exhausting to put words in people’s mouths then tell them those words are wrong. You should take a break. You earned it.
and yet you are here, still briming with energy.
I hate the death of empathy
Yep, it’s kind of wild people jump to calling her a “Super Karen” when he most likely explanation is that she has a psychotic episode.
I love the fact that literally nothing in any of the evidence hints at a psychotic episode, but people like you gotta hallucinate facts just to justify your imaginary narrative that old people are sweet as candy and innocent as newborns and can do no wrong.
It’s not about the age of the person. If somebody is acting very erratically (for example, starting a physical fight over pickles) I’m inclined to assume that the individual in question likely has some underlying issues.
If you want to assume ‘entitled boomer’ that’s on you; to me that looks no better than when someone assumes ‘drug dealer’ when the dead person has other attributes, based on their particular prejudice.
