Elderly Woman Spends 104th Birthday In Jail As Part Of Special Bucket-Wish List

Facebook/Livingston County Sheriff's Office

An elderly woman from Western New York fulfilled her lifelong dream for her 104th birthday by spending time behind bars. Loretta, who resides  at Avon Nursing Home in Geneseo, had her odd wish granted at Livingston County Jail last week,  per the New York Post

The 104-year-old was given a private tour of the jail, where she saw the security system and booking area up close. Pictures showcase Loretta thrilled as she reached for some shackles. She then enjoyed a party with coffee and cake during her visit.

The tour occurred just two days after Loretta’s birthday on Feb. 8. Her family and the sheriff’s office worked hard to make her wish come true, which was to experience jail since she had never been there. Before leaving, she offered Sheriff Thomas Dougherty wise advice, saying, “Mind your business!”

The sheriff’s department wrote on Facebook, “Loretta had a great time touring our Jail facility and we are so glad that we were able to make her birthday wishes come true! Thank you for all the laughs today and for being a great sport!”
