A Playboy model named Shannon Teresa Marie Schwartz is in hot water for allegedly trying to bribe a Department of Homeland Security federal agent to get her boyfriend, Wilhelm Lewis Huntzinger, released from federal custody. According to court documents, she offered the agent $5-thousand to help convince a judge to let him out. The agent claims he received multiple calls and texts from Schwartz, who was persistent about getting Huntzinger's out. She even arranged meetings with the agent and offered him $2,500 as a down payment for his assistance. Despite being warned the agent couldn't help, Schwartz continued her asking. Eventually, she was arrested and now faces serious charges, including up to 15 years in prison if found guilty. Meanwhile, Huntzinger remains in custody after being found with 205 rounds of Remington .223-caliber ammunition and drugs.

A Google Street View driver in Indiana went full throttle recently, hitting speeds of 120 mph in a wild chase that ended with a splash in a creek. Coleman Ferguson, the guy behind the wheel, kicked things off when he was spotted in the Google car zooming down the road. This kicked off a chase with a cop when Ferguson refused to pull over. The dangerous game of cat-and-mouse spanned two counties before Ferguson eventually lost control and crashed through a guardrail, landing himself in a creek. The driver has pleaded guilty to resisting police with a vehicle and spent two weeks in jail before posting a $10,000 bond. Meanwhile, Ferguson has a rap sheet that consists of two other convictions for driving with a suspended license and a third conviction for driving with expired plates.
