          The Rambo Granny of Melbourne, Australia

          Gun-toting granny Ava Estelle, 81, was so ticked-off when two =
thugs raped her 18-year-old granddaughter that she tracked the =
unsuspecting ex-cons down - - and shot off their testicles.

          The old lady spent a week hunting those men down -- and when =
she found them, she took revenge on them in her own special way, said =
Melbourne police investigator Evan Delp.  Then she took a taxi to the =
nearest police station, laid the gun on the sergeant's desk and told him =
as calm as could be:

          'Those bastards will never rape anybody again, by God.' Cops =
say convicted rapist and robber Davis Furth, 33, lost both his penis and =
his testicles when outraged Ava opened fire with a 9-mm pistol in the =
hotel room where he and former prison cellmate Stanley Thomas, 29, were =
holed up.

          The wrinkled avenger also blew Thomas' testicles to kingdom =
come, but doctors managed to save his mangled penis, police said.  The =
one guy, Thomas, didn't lose his manhood, but the doctor I talked to =
said he won't be using it the way he used to, Detective Delp told =
reporters.  Both men are still in pretty bad shape, but I think they're =
just happy to be alive after what they've been through.

          The Rambo Granny swung into action August 21 after her =
granddaughter Debbie was carjacked and raped in broad daylight by two =
knife-wielding creeps in a section of town bordering on skid row.  "When =
I saw the look on my Debbie's face that night in the hospital, I decided =
I was going to go out and get those bastards myself 'cause I figured the =
Law would go easy on them," recalled the retired library worker.  "And I =
wasn't scared of them, either-- because I've got me a gun and I've been =
shootin' all my life.  And I wasn't dumb enough to turn it in when the =
law changed about owning one."

          So, using a police artist's sketch of the suspects and =
Debbie's description of the sickos', tough-as-nails Ava spent seven days =
prowling the wino-infested neighborhood where the crime took place till =
she spotted the ill fated rapists entering their flophouse hotel.

          I knew it was them the minute I saw 'em, but I shot a picture =
of 'em anyway and took it back to Debbie and she said sure as hell, it =
was them, the oldster recalled.

          So I went back to that hotel and found their room and knocked =
on the door and the minute the big one, Furth, opened the door, I shot =
'em right square between the legs, right where it would really hurt 'em =
most, you know. =20
          Then I went in and shot the other one as he backed up pleading =
to me to spare him.  Then I went down to the police station and turned =
myself in.

          Now, baffled lawmen are trying to figure out exactly how to =
deal with the vigilante granny.  What she did was wrong, and she broke =
the law, but it is difficult to throw an 81-year-old woman in prison, =
Det. Delp said, especially when 3 million people in the city want to =
nominate her for sainthood and a medal.






          DEPORT HER TO AMERICA -- WE NEED HER!!!
