ISLAMABAD: As part of her 104th birthday wish, a care home resident has been taken to the local prison in the state of New York.
Livingston County Sheriff’s Office in Geneseo, about 29 miles (46km) south of Rochester, shared pictures showing Loretta visiting their facility, according to New York Post.
“Loretta, who is a resident at the Avon Nursing Home, was asked what she wanted for her birthday and her response was that she wanted to see the inside of our jail because she has never been to jail before,” the police department wrote in a post on Facebook.
“Loretta had a great time touring our jail facility and we are so glad that we were able to make her birthday wishes come true!” it added.
Hurlbut Care Communities which operates her care home detailed some of the activities she enjoyed while in prison on 10 February.

“Loretta enjoyed cake, getting fingerprinted, her mug shot taken, the tour of the jail, getting locked in a cell, and getting to meet many deputies, including one of their new K-9s!
“Thank you to the Livingston County Sheriff’s Office for making Loretta’s wish come true!”
The visit happened two days after her 104th birthday the previous week where she enjoyed a party at Avon Nursing Home in the nearby town of Avon.
Photos of her great day were shared on Facebook by her care home, showing her with a large pink birthday cake.
“What a fabulous celebration for Loretta at Avon!” the care home wrote.
“We indulged in a scrumptious cake… here’s to sweet moments and amazing friends… 104 reasons to celebrate life!”
