Sarah Jessica Parker surrogate burglar jailed
December 31st, 2009 - 2:15 pm ICT by ANILondon, Dec 31 (ANI): A former Ohio police chief who broke into the home of a surrogate mother who bore twins for the actors Sarah Jessica Parker and Matthew Broderick has been given jail time.
Barry Carpenter was sentenced to two years and eight months in prison after being convicted last month of receiving stolen property, evidence tampering and theft in office. He was acquitted of the burglary charge.
Carpenter resigned two weeks ago as chief in Martins Ferry, where the celebrity couple’s surrogate lived, reports the Telegraph.
Prosecutors said that he broke into Michelle Ross’s home in May, took items related to her pregnancy and the surrogacy, and conspired with police chief Chad Dojack of neighbouring Bridgeport to sell the items to celebrity photographers.
Emily Laube, the Ohio assistant attorney general, told the trial: “The bottom line is that there is a victim in this case whose privacy was so gravely intruded upon. If you can’t trust the police, who can you trust?” (ANI)
