A Cherokee woman who went to a country club to pray on an Indian mound was found guilty by a jury of trespassing.

Barbara Crandell, 74, said she got tired after praying and rested on the country club golf course. She was ejected from the private facility.

Crandell was fined $250 plus court costs but said she doesn't intend to pay. She said she would have rather gone to jail.
