Chucking it in the swamp is the easy way to go but still reckless. It could show up again and kill somebody.

To elaborate on my suggestion (go fishing) I did intend for the pin to be pulled and the grenade chucked into the water to safely detonate well below the surface.
Differing from your situation, your gas baton was at one time legal. This grenade was never legal. Somebody will be answering questions as to how it came into their possession. Nobody wants to try and do the right thing, only to see a friend or family member indicted. If he does decide to turn it in, I suggest having it handled by an attorney.
Somebody has some choices to be made.
With regard to the Orlando news story, it is a concussion grenade, not a frag. It has a lot less TNT than a frag. Though it can injure and maim in close proximity, it would not "rock a neighborhood" if it went off.
Glad to see no charges were filed in that situation.
