Arizona family cashes checks for years after killing grandmother, storing body in home: police

An Arizona mother and daughter were arrested Tuesday for allegedly killing the family’s 77-year-old grandmother two years ago and continuing to cash monthly checks in her name, authorities said.

Tara Aven, 46, and Briar Aven, 24, were taken into custody after officers conducted a welfare check at Sandra Aven’s home in Prescott, police said. A concerned neighbor told police he hadn’t seen the 77-year-old in a long time and was worried about her.

These two reprobate not only cashed the old lady’s check when she was dead; they killed her in order to get their hands on the $oldi.

The fearsome twosome sure didn’t spend any of the old lady’s money in the beauty shop.
