It is amazing to know this woman took out Rick Pitino and was paraded around like some sort of hero by the media.
She is not a very good person.
Police have arrested the self-proclaimed “escort queen” at the center of a sex scandal involving the University of Louisville’s basketball team.
News outlets report Katina Powell was arrested Thursday, moments after the court told her to vacate her Louisville home, for allegedly cashing stolen and forged checks.
An arrest report says Powell is accused of stealing checks totaling $2,900 and trying to cash them last month at a liquor store.
In a book, Powell called herself the “escort queen.” She allegedly provided women for sex with Louisville basketball recruits and players between 2010 and 2014, ultimately leading the NCAA to revoke the Cardinals’ 2013 men’s basketball championship.
With that controversy still hanging over the university, head coach Rick Pitino was fired after Louisville was involved in the FBI’s investigation into the NCAA corruption scandal.
Powell had been ordered to vacate her Louisville home after her daughter was accused of pointing a handgun at a man outside. The incident was deemed to be a violation of the lease. The Louisville Metro Housing Authority filed an eviction notice April 25.
Even more ironic or iconic depending on how you look at it, is she is rocking an Louisville shirt in her mugshot.
