Fugitive who asked TV station to replace her ‘bad-looking’ pic nabbed
A fugitive in Sydney, Australia, was arrested by authorities after she requested a TV station to change her unflattering photos in its report.
According to Australian news site 7 News Sydney, Amy Sharp was a suspect for escaping a correctional facility after being held for property offenses. The local police posted a bulletin urging the public to report to them if they spotted her. They clipped two photos of Sharp, 18, where she was seen wearing a blanket over her shoulders.
The news site posted a report on Sharp’s disappearance on its Facebook page and, surprisingly, Sharp commented on the thread, asking the TV station to replace the posted photo with a more attractive one.
“Can you use this photo? please and thank you,” Sharp said on Thursday. Her comment garnered 64,516 likes as of Tuesday.

Two days after she commented, the news agency updated its report and announced that police arrested Sharp on Saturday midnight.
“Amy Sharp was arrested just after midnight. Found by police in Wentworth Park. Local police assisted by the Police Order & Riot Squad. Expected to be charged today,” the news blasted. She was charged with dodging police custody and was refused bail. Gianna Francesca Catolico
