Porsche-driving woman who shot homeless man is escort/stripper. (NSFW) [View all]

I kind of wondered how a "struggling" wannabe singer-songwriter could afford those wheels (unless her rich lawyer daddy bought it for her).

https://www.google.com/amp/www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-4884856/amp/Photos-woman-shot-homeless-man-appear-escort-site.html

"Photographs of a Porsche-driving lawyer's daughter who shot a homeless man twice claiming she was in fear of her life appear on a website where she is described as a stripper and $800-an-hour escort.  

Katie Layne Quackenbush, 26, has been charged with attempted murder for shooting 54-year-old Gerald Melton twice on August 26 at 3am near Nashville's Music Row.

...

The woman's former fiancé has also come forward after learning of her arrest in the news and says he is not the least bit surprised by it. 

'This is just like, completely in her character. This really doesn't surprise me at all. This sounds just like her,' Ian McGrath said in a YouTube video. 

......

McGrath said she also had a $2.5million trust fund which he said she would only have access to if she had no felony convictions.".....(more)
