FAKE FOOTBALL TICKETS SMOKE OUT DEADBEAT DADS

BEFORE

BUSTED

A DOZEN deadbeat dads were busted by with a brilliant sting, where they were offered tickets to the Iron Bowl football game in Alabama, only to be pounced on be law enforcement officers. 
The novel approach, created by Alabama's Lee County Sheriff, knew they were bound to lure out some of the suspects, as tickets are virtually impossible to get hold of for one of the most heated rivalries in sport. 
So they sent out "You Have Won!" letters to a number of men with large outstanding child-support warrants telling them they'd won tickets to the grudge match between defending national champions Auburn and Alabama University game.  Then they set up a storefront with balloons and banner in the front and handcuffs and school buses in the back. 
Disguised deputies, dressed in either Tigers or Crimson Tide gear then cheered as every last one of their hapless marks walked in with their letters and photo IDs. 
Capt. Van Jackson from the sheriff's office said: "It was an idea that just grew out of conversations here at the agency. 
"We wanted to do something because we had some very large outstanding child-support warrants, and we wanted to come up with a sting operation to lure those people in. Obviously with the [football] season coming up, the timing was important."
Of their victims he added:  "They were very excited, right up to the point where we got them in the back and put the cuffs on them. 
"We had one guy ask us if he still got his tickets after we'd booked him in. That was pretty funny. We all got stories to tell for the rest of our lives."

The suspects, who owe a combined $270,000 were transported to the Lee County Detention Facility to await a hearing at which bail will be set.

“They’re going to need to come up with some money,” Jackson said.

BRIDE TAMMI LEE HINTON BUSTED ON WEDDING DAY

TILL BUST DO US PART

IT should have been the happiest day of her life, but instead she spent at least some of it behind bars after she was arrested minutes after walking down the aisle.  Tammy Lee Hinton had just exchanged vows at a Jackson, MI church, when officers swooped, busting her on a three-year-old warrant for identity theft.  Blackman-Leoni Township Public Safety Officer Rick Gillespie told MLive that they believed the woman had moved to Florida, but they got tips that she would be back in town for the wedding.
He added that officers had discussed whether to arrest the woman on her wedding day, but felt like they were out of options.
He said: "We can’t ignore it when we have good information on where she’s going to be. We had to do what we had to do.
"She was kind of shocked at first because according to her, she had no idea what this was about."
Hinton was allowed to pose for last minute photographs before she was arrested at City of Zion Ministries at approximately 1pm - just after the ceremony. 

Officers said Hinton was held for less than 30 minutes before being picked up by her husband, whose name has not yet been released.

She was later freed on bond.
It's thought the couple continued to the reception. Police could not offer more detail on the case, which is still pending.

SEXIEST DUI EVER: MODEL SUELYN MEDEIROS, BUST-ED

BUST-ED

WHAT a bust - and the arrest wasn't bad either.
There would definitely been a few raised eyebrows as Brazilian bikini model SueLyn Medeiros was marched into the station house.
Cops told gossip site TMZ that the 25-year-old beauty was pulled over in Hollywood on Wednesday after crashing her DeLorean into a parked car.
Opening the Back to the Future mobile, cops said there was a strong odor of booze in the car and their suspicions were confirmed when her blood alcohol level was .14 almost twice the legal limit in California.   As they gave her the field sobriety test and bragged that
she was rich model and giggled in their faces. 
She also reportedly flirted with the officers. As of Thursday, TMZ reports that Medeiros is still in custody with bail set at $45,000.
