If you ever needed a reason to let go of an old grudge and let bygones be bygones, here it is.  If the allegations leveled at 51-year-old Laurie Lynn Hinds are true, she could be spending 6 months to 2 years behind bars, up to a $10,000 fine, and a small-town reputation that will never go away.

According to a report from KWTX, Hinds allegedly did the unthinkable at a funeral home in Tyler, Texas on Nov. 29.  Eyewitness accounts claim she walked straight up to a casket and, to the absolute shock of everyone in attendance - spit on the body resting inside.  Friends and family who witnessed the grotesque display would explain that she had "animosity" with the deceased.

As horrific of a crime as that is, Hinds was not arrested on the spot.  A warrant for her arrest would come more than a month later, and her arrest would not happen until earlier this month.  On June 5th, she was reportedly arrested and charged with State-Jail Felony Abuse of Corpse.  She posted a $2,500 bond and was released the next day.

Neither the name of the deceased nor the date of Laurie Lynn Hinds trial have been released at this time.
