Lindsey D. Craword, the Kansas City woman who hired a man to assault her in a ridiculous attempt to advance a sexual-harassment suit, pleaded guilty today in federal court to wire fraud.
Crawford admits that she and a friend hired man to assault them in the detached garage of her Waldo residence. Crawford and Julie R. Bernet claimed initially that two men clubbed them on the head with bottles as they exited the vehicle. Initial reports said one of the woman was sodomized by the assailants, who fled.
In fact, Crawford and Bernet hired their attacker, Gordon F. Reabe Jr. of Lee's Summit, after meeting him at a restaurant at Harrah's Casino on November 24, 2008. According to charges that were filed, Crawford agreed to be sexually assaulted but only if knocked unconscious.
Authorities said the women wanted the attack to look like retaliation for lawsuits they had filed against a former employer, Mercedes Benz of Kansas City.
Crawford pleaded guilty to a charge that carries a sentence of up to five years in prison and a $250,000 fine. A sentencing hearing will be scheduled after the completion of a pre-sentence investigation.
Bernet and Reabe are scheduled for trial in August.
The sexual harassment case Bernet and Crawford filed in 2008 is pending.

Srsly, what were these twits thinking?
They were thinking they'd get away with it, of course. Wasn't that what you were thinking when you did whatever it was that earned you a stay at the Crossbar Hotel?
The prior experience of being sodomized while knocked out might come in handy when she gets to the pen. Female convicts can be worse than their male counterparts.
