Woman convicted in nudity case
LINCOLN, Neb. (AP) - A Lincoln woman who has had run-ins with the law regarding public nudity has been convicted in her latest case.
A judge has found 23-year-old Melissa Harrington guilty of violating a public decency ordinance when she hosted a wet T-shirt contest at a Lincoln bar in March.
Police say Harrington conducted the show while topless.
Harrington argued that she was not nude from the waist up, because she covered herself with pink paint.
But a Lancaster County judge ruled last week that the paint wasn't enough, because it was transparent. Harrington faces as much as eight months in jail when she's sentenced August second.
Harrington was ticketed in 2003 for naked Internet pictures of herself taken in a downtown Lincoln bar.
