It’s good to know how vigilant the Salt Lake City police are.

Betty Perry pleaded innocent Tuesday to charges she failed to water her lawn and resisted arrest when an officer attempted to cite her.

Perry appeared in 4th District Court in Orem to enter her plea in a case prominent Los Angeles attorney Gloria Allred described as a gross injustice.

“Today, law enforcement in Orem has enshrined itself as the laughing stock of our country by prosecuting a 70-year-old great-grandmother for allegedly not watering her lawn,” Allred said. “This ill-conceived action ensures Orem’s law enforcement authorities first place in the [Guinness World Records] for stupidity.”

Perry’s next appearance will be on Oct. 11 for a pre-trial conference.

There’s nothing else the court system has to do but try a 70-year-old great grandmother for having a brown lawn? Oh, and that “resisting arrest” part? Yeah, she didn’t exactly hit him.

Perry refused to give her name to the officer and, when Flygare tried to stop her from going back inside her house, she reportedly tripped and injured her nose.

Her defense attorney has represented Nicole Brown, OJ Simpson’s murdered wife.
