Fashion model Beverly Peele was arrested on identity theft charges for allegedly buying around $10,000 worth of housewares, appliances and furniture by using credit card numbers without permission, authorities said Friday.
Peele, who has appeared in many fashion spreads and in the George Michael video "I Want Your Sex," was arrested Monday and charged with two counts of grand theft by access card, according to the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department.
The complaint filed against the 30-year-old alleges she charged furniture, a refrigerator, a washer and dryer, bedding and other items for her home on credit cards that were in a wallet she had found in a supermarket.
If she did what is alleges than she deserves to be punished, but shouldn't this hairdo have gotten her arrested years ago? Rough stuff for a former big-time model, though. I'm guessing the residuals for "Sweet Friggin' Daisies" aren't as lucrative as one might think.
