Reader Mike L. sent me this rather sad story:
A Colorado sheriff’s deputy resigned this week after officials learned she’d appeared in pornographic videos — a second career she took to “out of desperation” over mounting bills.
Oh no, how could she? OMG she’s supposed to be a role model, etc. etc. etc.
Right:
In part, that came from a June 2023 storm that left her home with $500,000 in hail and water damage that insurance wouldn’t cover; sky-high interest rates that tripled her adjustable-rate mortgage and led to foreclosure; and increasing utility, gas and food costs. She’d drained her savings, borrowed money from her family and cut spending, she told CBS. But the debt collectors kept calling.
You know what? I cannot find it in me to judge or condemn her. We’ve all been there, and she’s just lucky she had the errrr proper attributes to generate her alternative income stream.
That said:
Yowzer.
I just hope she can find another “regular” job, although it’s probably unlikely.
This may not end well, but it wasn’t going to end well anyway. If I were in a position to offer her a job, I would.
Let’s just hope someone else feels that way.
