SIX INCHES A NIGHT: WOMAN BUSTED FOR MOVING HIS TRASH CANS SLIGHTLY EVERY NIGHT FOR EIGHT MONTHS
SIX INCHES A NIGHT: WOMAN BUSTED FOR MOVING HIS TRASH CANS SLIGHTLY EVERY NIGHT FOR EIGHT MONTHS WILLOW MARSH, IN — Gladys Prewitt, 71, was arrested this week after police say she moved her neighbor's trash cans approximately six inches every single night for eight straight months, slowly driving the man to question his own sanity. The victim contacted police after realizing his bins had migrated a full 120 feet down the block since October, "one polite nudge at a time." Investigators say the campaign was patient and methodical: She moved the cans exactly six inches nightly, never more, to avoid raising suspicion Security footage shows her in slippers, checking her work with a metal tape measure The man reportedly re-parked his cans each morning, unaware they were "being farmed" By spring, the bins had quietly crossed two property lines and one storm drain She kept a logbook at home tracking each night's distance in tidy blue ink On rainy nights she wore a poncho, calling weather "no excuse to fall behind" Neighbors say the man had begun "talking to the trash cans, gently asking them where they thought they were going." "This is the most disciplined crime I have ever encountered," said Officer Reggie Hallman, a 24-year veteran of the department. "She did not want to scare him. She wanted to gaslight him professionally, and she succeeded." The trash cans, finally at rest, declined to comment. She never once rushed. She simply relocated his reality.
