Date this Canadiann babe..?

A woman dubbed the Internet Black Widow was released from prison in Canada on Friday, prompting police to issue a warning to potential victims - elderly men looking for love. What could have earned a sweet-talking 80-year-old such a sinister reputation?

Alex Strategos was lonely and searching for romance when he met Melissa Ann Shepard on an online dating site.

"At first, I thought she seemed very nice," Strategos, now 84, told the BBC from his home in Florida. Shepard drove down from Canada and quickly moved in with Strategos, who described her as a "very classy lady".

But he soon discovered she was less classy than she seemed. "I went to hospital," says Strategos. "She sent me there."

Their relationship was one of many that have resulted in Shepard serving time in prison.

This week she was released after two years, nine months and 10 days in jail for spiking the coffee of a new partner, Fred Weeks, her neighbour in a quiet retirement community in Nova Scotia. According to court documents, she knocked on his door and told him she was lonely, and she'd heard he was lonely too.

Old ladies give great head. They can just pop out the dentures and gum your shit up proper. They're really grateful for the opportunity, and almost never have VDs. Plus, no pregnancy scares if you smash...
