Mom who broke into cars: 'I was looking for ISIS'


HURLEY, MISSISSIPPI -- Best. Alibi. Ever. A Mississippi woman plastered in tattoos who was pinched for breaking into cars wasn't really stealing. No, no, no. She was hunting Islamic State terrorists, she told surprised cops.  Lisa Carol Roche, 41, was nabbed burglarizing the vehicle.
Roche allegedly pinched sunglasses and other items from the cars. But after she was arrested, she told cops she was on a search and destroy for jihadi fighters.

According to cops, 'Cocaine' "lunged and tried to attack some children." That's when Betty pulled out her gun and fired, hitting hubby Robert Walker, 53, in the chest. He was dead in the hospital two hours later. 'Cocaine' was only wounded.
But Robert Ferguson, 19, whose cousin owns the pit bull told the Jackson Clarion-Ledger that the dog isn't aggressive and is kept in a fenced in pen when the owner is out. He heard the gunshots and saw poor
