MELBOURNE, Australia....
.
Gun-toting granny Ava Estelle, 81, was so ticked-off when two thugs raped
her 18-year-old granddaughter that she tracked the unsuspecting ex-cons
down - - and shot their testicles off! "The old lady spent a week hunting
those bums down-and when she found them, she took revenge on them in her own
special way," said admiring Melbourne police investigator Evan Delp."
Then
she took a taxi to the nearest police station, laid the gun on the
sergeant's desk and told him as calm as could be: 'Those bastards willnever
rape anybody again, by God.' Cops say convicted rapist and robber Davis
Furth, 33, lost both his penis and his testicles when outraged Ava opened
fire with a 9-mm pistol in the seedy hotel room where he and former prison
cellmate Stanley Thomas,29, were holed up. The wrinkled avenger also blew
Thomas' testicles to kingdom come, but doctors managed to save his mangled
penis, police said.
"The one guy, Thomas, didn't lose his manhood, but the
doctor I talked to said he
won't be using it the way he used to," Detective Delp told reporters."Both
men are still in pretty bad shape, but I think they're just happy to be
alive
after what they've been through."
The Rambo Granny swung into action August 21 after her granddaughter Debbie
was carjacked and raped by two knife-wielding creeps in a section of town
bordering on skid row.
"When I saw the look on my Debbie's face that night
in the hospital, I decided I was going to go out and get those bastards
myself 'cause I figured the police would go easy on them,"
recalled the retired library worker.
"And I wasn't scared of them,
either-because I've got me a gun and I've been shootin' it all my life."
So, using a police artist's sketch of the suspects and Debbie's description
of the sickos' car, Tough-as-nails Ava spent seven days prowling the
wino-infested neighborhood where the crime took place till she spotted the
ill-fated rapists entering their flophouse hotel.
"I know it was them the
minute I saw 'em, but I shot a picture of 'em anyway and took it back to
Debbie and she said sure as hell, it was them," the ornery oldster recalled.
"So I went back to that hotel and found their room and knocked on the
door-and the minute the big one, Furth, opened the door, I shot 'em - got
him
right square between the legs, right where it would really hurt 'em most,
you know. Then I went down to the police station and turned myself in." Now,
baffled lawmen are tying to figure out how to deal with the vigilante
granny.
"What she did was wrong, but you can't really throw an 81-year-oldwoman in
prison." Det. Delp said, "especially when all 3 million people in the city
want to nominate her for sainthood."
