She recently spent two nights in a Chicago jail and is now facing a further three years imprisonment.
You only have to look at her to see she’s a criminal type.
Her crime?
Her sister had a surprise 29th birthday party at the Muvico Theater in Rosemont and Samantha made a video including her “and a few other family members singing Happy Birthday’,” says the Chicago Sun-Times.
Now she’s charged “with a rarely invoked felony designed to prevent movie patrons from recording hot new movies,” says the story.
Because during she also captured bits of ‘Twilight’.
After a worker saw her shooting the video, managers contacted police. Later, commander Frank Siciliano said officers found Samantha had taped “two very short segments” of the movie — no more than four minutes in total, says the story.
She was arrested “after theater managers insisted on pressing charges, he said,” it states, going on.........
She was charged with criminal use of a motion picture exhibition. She remained jailed for two nights in Rosemont’s police station until being taken to bond court on Monday, where a Cook County judge ordered her released on a personal recognizance bond that didn’t require her to post any cash
The footage she shot “also includes the pre-film commercials, as well as her talking about the camera and the movie,” says the Chicago Sun-Times, adding:
“She plans to fight in court the felony filed against her because she said she did nothing wrong — and certainly didn’t try to secretly tape the movie.”
