Shit just got real.
A woman by the name of Kayla Finley was recently arrested in South Carolina because she never returned a movie she rented from a currently out-of-business video store.
According to TMZ, she was taken into custody on Thursday, after visiting the Pickens County Sheriff’s Office for an unrelated matter, when the police discovered she had a 10-year-old warrant out for her arrest. The site reports:
Turns out Kayla allegedly rented “Monster-in-Law” from Dalton Video in 2005 but never returned it … so the store owner got the police involved before going out of business. It’s unclear when Dalton Video went out of business … but cops say they’ve been trying to get in touch with her about the warrant for years and never heard back. Kayla swore she never got a notice — but was hauled off to jail anyway … and released a few hours later on bond.
Kayla is facing a charge for “failure to return rented video cassette.”
They really can’t be serious… Let this be a lesson learned. Head over to TMZ to see Kayla’s mugshot.
