FORT LAUDERDALE —

A Tamarac woman told a judge she stole someone's identity and spent nearly $20,000 in ill-gotten funds, largely because she needed to replace defective breast implants and furnish her condo.

Shatarka Nuby, 29, offered that explanation to U.S. District Judge William Zloch on Thursday as she pleaded guilty to one count of conspiracy to use unauthorized devices, or credit cards, and one count of aggravated identity theft. Nuby faces up to seven years in prison when she is sentenced Nov. 16.

"I feel bad for doing this," Nuby said. "I felt if it was someone in my family [victimized by identity theft], I would be upset."

Wearing an olive-green jumpsuit and shackles on her wrists and ankles, Nuby said she needed money to replace breast implants that gave her breathing problems, and to furnish the condo she recently moved into. She said she had been addicted to Ecstasy and suffered from depression.

I'm surprised they let her wear her wig in that mugshot.

A picture truly does paint a thousand words.

Shatarka. Is she any kin to Gonorrhea Gaily or Nosmo King?

[nhwingut]

Seen better hairlines on barbie dolls.

So what is it again that we are supposed to feel sorry enough about and not throw your useless carcus into the slammer?

[wastedyears]

Why am I not surprised?

Terrible fake hair, too.

[AEMILIUS PAULUS]

I guess it would be fair to say that she was “busted!”

"I'm surprised they let her wear her wig in that mugshot."

Mugshots are normally taken to depict the person's appearance at the time of arrest...

[Secret Agent Man]

Shatarka.

Gee, without the picture I knew what race she was.

[Moonman62]

What’s I find particularly bad is that she stole the college application of a 17 year old girl in order to get the fake credit.

[WellyP]

Not even new boobs can help a woman who looks like her!

[Charles Martel]

Gee, without the picture I knew what race she was.

Yup, almost as telling a name as those of the twins, Orangejello and Lemonjello.

[HiTech RedNeck]

Busted, lol!

Wonder if they made her give the breast implant back, oh wait.

[Chi-townChief]

She needed some work on her nubies.

[SharpRightTurn]

“Shatarka Nuby”

You couldn’t come up with a name like that with a drunken game of Scrabble.

[6SJ7]

Worst wig... ever.

[backwoods-engineer]

Yep! Loved that book.

"Unintended Consequences", by John Ross. Read it, patriots. It will feel like reading the news.
