Teenager befriends Arkansas grandmother who lost wallet after tracking her down, returning it

An Arkansas teen is being commended for his good deeds after personally returning a grandmother's wallet that he found in a Walmart parking lot, sparking an unexpected friendship.

Delivontae Johnson, 19, was visiting a Walmart on January 12 seeking a tire replacement when he noticed a black wallet in a nearby shopping cart.

The teenager decided to personally hand it over to the owner instead of contacting authorities. The wallet belonged to Dee Harkrider, a grandmother of 7. 

"When I found a name, I looked it up on Facebook so I could get in contact with the owner," Johnson told FOX Television Stations.

After not getting a response from Harkrider herself, Johnson took the initiative to reach out to one of her Facebook friends to alert them of the situation. He eventually traveled to Palestine, Arkansas, to return the 61-year-old woman's wallet.

"When I got there she was surprised that I was a teenager," Johnson recalled. "She thanked me and gave me a hug and we both took a picture together."

Despite an age difference of over 40 years, Harkrider and Johnson became fast friends after meeting. Harkrider says that she's met Johnson's mother and aunts, and even attended his cousin's baby shower.

"I truly believe that God brought this all about and put us all in each other’s lives," Harkrider said. "I thank God for all of this."

"If you do good, good will follow you," Johnson said. "There is never a limit on a good thing you can do for this world."

Sentencing for former Georgia sheriff pushed back to March 14

Sentencing for a former Georgia sheriff convicted of violating the constitutional rights of six people in his custody has been rescheduled to next month.

Former Clayton County Sheriff Victor Hill was scheduled for sentencing in federal court in Atlanta on Feb. 28, court records show. But that date has been pushed to 9:30 a.m. on March 14, WXIA-TV reported.

Hill was convicted in October of violating the constitutional rights of six Clayton County inmates by forcing them into restraint chairs for hours at a time with little provocation. He faces up to 10 years on each count.

Hill retired as sheriff in November, following his conviction.

Hill became mired in controversy the day he took office in 2005, when he fired 27 deputies. He said there were valid reasons for each firing, though a judge later ordered that the deputies be reinstated. He was sworn in for his second term in January and had taken a more low-key approach since then, said Putnam County Sheriff Howard Sills, who was president of the Georgia Sheriffs’ Association.

This was Hill’s second trial on criminal charges. Clayton County voters reelected Hill in 2012 while he was under indictment the first time, accused of using his office for personal gain. He beat those charges.
