Where's my automobiiiiille? edition of CCC

Chicks Committing Crime: Some heavily-influenced driving resulted in an early morning arrest for a Batavia resident according to the Naperville Sun. Abbey Potter (no relation to Harry),24, had a little too much fun early this morning and got behind the wheel of a Hyundai. She crashed the car through a 7-foot section of fencing, also knocking a fire hydrant off its base, before ending up another 500 feet beyond the fence on Centennial Beach. Witnesses called the police and when they approached they found Potter attempting to pull out of the sand.

Potter was uninjured but that is the only break she caught:
- her blood alcohol content was twice the legal limit and she was charged with two counts of DUI
- the police charged her with possession of cannabis and other drug paraphernalia
- the Hyundai was uninsured
- the registration was expired
- and finally she was charged with driving on the sidewalk

We dedicate the following video to Potter. Though she didn't quite make it to the water, she did try. Despite the poor video quality, you get the idea.

CCC! Chicks Committing Crimes - careful who you date...

A DuPage County woman is standing trial for the murder of her long-time girlfriend, according to the Sun-Times. Nicole Abusharif was courting a new lady-love and presented her with a 'kick-ass' present: a set of keys to her 1966 black Ford Mustang. The new lady-love was smitten and thrilled. Until it came out there was a body in the trunk.

"She said she had a kick-ass present for me," Rose Sodaro testified. "She reached in her pocket and pulled out the Mustang key. She said I could come and take the Mustang out whenever I wanted."

That night, however, prosecutors contend the trunk of the Mustang contained the body of Abusharif's longtime lover, 32-year-old Rebecca "Becky" Klein.

Abusharif killed her partner, prosecutors contend, so she could openly carry on a relationship with the then 20-year-old Sodaro, whom she had met online a year earlier and pursued in an on-and-off courtship. Abusharif also stood to gain $250,000 from life insurance policies she held on Klein.

Defense attorneys have argued that Klein and Abusharif had an open relationship that allowed them to see other people.

Shortly after the killing, Abusharif met Sodaro at a southwest suburban restaurant, then went bowling with a group of friends, Sodaro testified.

Because murder and bowling just go hand in hand.

The trial continues...

CCC update: Chicks committing crimes - late night at the bar edition

Four charm school dropouts were arrested last Saturday night for fighting outside a Naperville bar, according to the Naperville Sun.

The "ladies" were apparently enjoying an evening of drinking indiscriminately (not sure if they were together as a group) when chickie #1 (see glamour shots above) took umbrage and got into a scuffle with chickie #2 outside of Rizzo's on Jefferson Avenue. (One can only imagine what the affront was about - NCD is guessing it was something like 'she was acting like she was all that.') Male bystanders resisted their natural tendency to allow a catfight to play out (so they can photograph it) and pulled the chickies apart. Not to be outdone by these fighting females (maybe they are frienemies??), 1 & 2 were apart for just a second when 1 gets into a 'physical altercation' with #3 (who probably learned to pose for mug shots at reform school - again, she's got to be a dropout). By this time Naperville police have been summoned and are arriving on the scene when #4 gets in on the act, mixing it up with 1 & 3.

Not satisfied to be arrested simply for fighting in public, #3 adds a charge of battery when she gets up in the face of the police officer who is arresting #2.

All four women were taken into custody and jailed and made bail in the morning.

The scrappers range in age from 22 to 26 years old, proving once again that just because you are of legal age to drink, doesn't mean you should.

Hell hath no fury: Chicks Committing Crimes

Today's reports cover two incidents of chicks breaking the law.

The first story is from Kendall County. The Beacon News reports that bride-to-be Valerie J. Hardy, 24, was at the Kendall County clerk's office, applying for a marriage license, when temptation overcame her and she helped herself to cash from a bank deposit bag.
Hardy,of Plainfield, was completing paperwork around 10:30 a.m. when she removed money from the deposit bag, which was within her reach, authorities said.

Bridezilla pocketed the money and left the clerk's office, then hid the money in various locations throughout the Kendall County office building before returning to the clerk's office. Witnesses reported Hardy and she was confronted by sheriff's deputies and led them to each of her hiding places before she was taken into custody and charged with theft of more than $300. Deputies were able to recover all the scratch. Hardy's day worsened when she was searched and deputies found marijuana and drug paraphernalia on her.

In other CCC news (chicks-committing-crimes), a Wisconsin woman decided she was not going to take getting dumped by her boyfriend lying down. Kari Heath, 20, of Strum, is charged with a felony for allegedly posting a profile of her ex-bf on Craigslist under "casual encounters," according to the Sun-Times. Heath faces a charge of causing harm through identity theft, which could put her in jail for three years if convicted.

Police say the profile on the Internet Web site indicated the man wanted other men to call him at work and “talk dirty.”

When the man got a call at work from an unknown male who saw the Craigslist personal ad, the ex-boyfriend went on line and saw his profile and pictures. Then he called Altoona police.

Heath has an initial court appearance March 19.
