Lingerie model found guilty of "bra-bery" attempt
PORTLAND, Ore. (AP) — Joy Sartin claimed she kept her money in her bra because she didn"t have her purse with her, and she was only offering to pay a traffic ticket with it.
A jury, however, decided the 25-year-old lingerie model was trying to bribe a police officer who had stopped her for rolling through a stop sign and other traffic infractions.
Portland police Officer Cody Berne testified that Sartin offered him $270 she withdrew from her bra when he explained her car would be towed because her license had been suspended for drunken driving.
Sartin claimed she was just in a hurry to get home to her 4-year-old son after work.
