Playboy Playmate admits helping boyfriend in US illegally
Colleen Shannon faces a sentence ranging from no jail time to 10 months
A former Playboy Playmate has admitted helping her Canadian boyfriend after he illegally entered the United States in northern New York last summer.
Syracuse’s The Post-Standard newspaper says Colleen Shannon pleaded guilty in federal court on Tuesday to a felony charge and faces a sentence ranging from no jail time to 10 months.
Federal agents say the 35-year-old Los Angeles resident and her boyfriend were arrested after he illegally crossed the border and rendezvoused with her in Fort Covington. Officials say the boyfriend has a criminal record in Canada.
Shannon was the centrefold for Playboy’s 50th anniversary edition in 2004. She works as a disc jockey and calls herself the world’s sexiest DJ. She declined to comment after the court appearance.
