Woman's 'cop fantasy' has unhappy ending: DUI

ALTOONA, Pa. (AP) - April 5, 2012

The Altoona Mirror reports Thursday that Trooper Thomas Laskey went to a residence on March 20 after a motorist reported they were following a car that had been driving erratically on Interstate 99. Laskey says 40-year-old Monica Barnhart answered the door and matched the description he had of the driver - except that she had taken off her blue jeans and was wearing only underpants.

Police say Barnhart eventually acknowledged driving the car and that her blood alcohol content was more than four times the legal limit for drivers.

Barnhart's attorney says she maintains her innocence.
