Man beats 92-year-old grandmother to death
The Augusta Chronicle reports that a man has been jailed for beating his 92-year-old grandmother to death.
According to authorities, Theodore “Ted” Cornell Lockett, 21, once lived with his grandma, Dorothy Lockwood, in her Apache Trail home.
Police say Lockett returned to the home in the early hours of Sunday morning. He broke out a window and confronted his grandmother in the living room. Lockett began assaulting her, knocking her to the floor and striking her several times in the head with a glass table.
Lockett then called his mother, Sondra Lockett, around 2 a.m. and told her he’d just killed his grandmother and was going to kill her, according to the police report. He went back inside the home and resumed his attack on the elderly woman, beating her with a microwave oven.
When police arrived, Lockett surrendered without incident inside the home. Mrs. Lockwood died from her injuries at 5 a.m. Sunday. Another woman in the home was uninjured. She was bedridden and being cared for by Lockwood.
Lockett had been treated at a behavioral health facility in the past, but he has no psychiatric diagnosis.
He was booked on charges of murder, aggravated assault, burglary and making terroristic threats.

So people who commit suicide is depressed……whast about people who commit homicide, what is the mental health disorder????
People are crazy and you never know how they living. I would be interested in knowing what would drive him to do such a thing. And to call his mother and tell her he is on his way to kill her…..what in his mind set him off? Did they do somethng to him as a child? Is he on drugs? To many questions…..he needs a sesssion!
He needs his ass Crushed off the brakes I don’t CARE if he has ANY Problems….FOH
Wow, I’m in disbelief!
OMG! This is horrible!
Wow this is really sad. Who the hell beats someone to death with a microwave?
Oh Stupid looking B****
I’m also thinking it had to be something personal against his granny and mother. Only because he didn’t even bother to do anything to the other woman in the house.
so sad…
A mircowave oven though?
West and Dimpz!
This is absolutely heartbreaking. RIP Ms. Lockwood!!
Morning His and WCC!

Ditto.
How many 21 yr olds have a 92 yr old Granny? Great Great Grandmother sounds more likely. Sounds like there was too much of a age gap.
@Anna what does the age gap have to do with anything? Justasking?
Im refraining from adding my thoughts
May Heaven be her HOME!

I was wondering HOW the frig you even do that???
Hey was obviously high on something. Probably Fry or PCP. Remember it said he came in the house early morning on Sunday meaning he was probably out Saturday getting wasted. It just sounds strange and I’m sure drugs were involved on top of the fact that he’s just crazy.
Hey His
I don’t think he was abused by his mother or grandmother as a child if anything those were the ones who loved him most- hence you hurt the ones you love!
There is truly no pit in hell deep enough for dude….sorry
FOH with this shyt
Morning Choco!
Well that was bit of an oxymoron however I don’t he tripped on them becuz of something he held anger about – I think the fool took his issues out on them!
Yeah he sound like he was on a cocktail of drugs…. so sad these empty souls allow the demons that walk this earth take them so easily!
What a horrible way to die. I have nothing else for this.
So sad…you have to hear your son say he just killed your mom (or grandmother) and that you are next. What a terrible way for this woman lose her life. To live 90+ years, and have your life taken away by a family member nonetheless, is just heartbreaking….
I hope this man gets the help he needs WHILE in prison!
I KNOW I holla’d at that dayum Choc

Not sure, it just seems that kids w/parents so far apart in age tend to resent them. They don’t find a connectionm therefore this kid will probably have no remores for what he did. He looks older than 21. He looks like Cuba Gooding Jr.
fire up “old sparkie” and save the taxpayers the cost of a trial >:(
u know what, nevermind *backs out* smh

@Lakes
Yes pray and be ready for something better than this life thats the way I see it – Not saying I’m dying tomorrow but I can’t say that I ain’t gonna die!
Same here Cha. I took care of my grandmother near the end of her life and I have a special place in my heart for older folks.
I’m going to be in the CiCi post until we get a new post if y’all want me.
its not only bad to beat a 92 year old woman, but your 92 year old grandmother???? evil
He’s lucky he’s not in my family. There’d have been some close friends of the family and other relatives called instead of the police to handle this. He got off lucky.
Crack head
DAYUM, THIS SHYT REALLY BOTHERS ME
WITH MZDIMPLEZ #56
DID ANYONE HEAR ABOUT THE RAPIST IN HIS 20′S RAPE AN OLD LADY IN HER 60′S IN HER HOME AND TURNED AROUND 6 MONTHS LATER RAPED HER AGAIN IN HER OWN HOME. HE ALSO RAPED AN OLD LADY IN HER 80′S NOT TO FAR FROM WHERE HIS VICTIM IN HER 60′S LIVED. HOW COULD ANYBODY VIOLATE AN OLD LADY? I HOPE THAT THEY CATCH HIM AND PUNISH HIS AZZ “AN EYE 4 AN EYE” TYPE PUNISHMENT
Great… he’s gonna spend the next 50-60yrs in prison that the innocent public has to pay for. WTF is right!
@Xcal
He will prolly off himself! Or someone will help him do it I don’t see this fool living for 50 years after this chit!

This touches me so! God blessed me to sit and laugh and talk with my 96 year old grandmother on Sunday. Here this grandmother was having her life taken away…just PURE EVIL!!!!!!!!! Wow…God help him!!
Okay, this spoiled man-boy’s mother is a little off & does not seem to be saddened by the death of her mother. She keeps saying she cant understand why her wildebeest son committed such an act.
