WHEN CLOWNS GO BAD: CLOWN SENTENCED TO PRISON FOR DEFRAUDING ELDERLY




The Daily Courier

A female clown who specialized in fairs and city events in Arizona will spend almost three years in prison for her financial exploitation of an elderly Prescott woman, according to a press release from the Yavapai County Attorney's office.

Yavapai County Superior Court Judge Ralph Hess sentenced Carrie Lynn Williams-Thompson, 49, on June 25. In addition to prison time, Hess sentenced her to seven years probation when she gets out.

Williams-Thompson pleaded guilty on May 12 to theft and unlawful use of power of attorney.

Now who in their right mind would give a clown a power of attorney? Oh, right, never mind.
