Meanwhile, in Tennessee, Lady Jailed For Stealing, Hiding $5,000 in Her Rectum

Christie M. Black, 43, of Bulls Gap, Tennessee, who stole $5,000 from her boyfriend and hid the cash in her rectum is hospitalized for injuries she suffered while stuffing the cash in her "hiding place." True story. According to police, the boyfriend was suspicious that Christie was stealing from him. He set up a trap at 1am Tuesday by placing two envelopes filled with money totaling $5,000 in $100 bills and some medication in an old medicine bag on a foosball table inside his home. When he woke up at about 7 o'clock, he noticed that Christie was still up, so he checked the bag and discovered that the contents were missing. He confronted her and she admitted that she wrapped up the cash and stuck it in her rectum. She then used a toilet brush and tongs to try to pry out the stolen goods, but ended up injuring herself. The boyfriend called 911 and when they arrived, Christie told them she stole the money and medication because her boyfriend was going to kick her out, and she needed money for a place to live. She was transported to a hospital where surgeons removed the wad of money from Chritie's rectum. From all the things we've found (not us, personally) in people's butts -- a load 10-inch gun and cocaine -- cash seems tame.
