Emma's lawyer, Hubert Santos, said that she was sentenced to community service after appearing in county court on Tuesday, and Santos insisted the arrest emanated from a mistake. Santos alleges that Emma was using the self-checkout and paid for $30 worth of items, but forgot to pay for the case.
The Hartford Police Department released the following statement on the arrest via Wrestlingheadlines.com:
"On June 30, 2014 at approximately 1:00 pm, Hartford Police Officers were contacted by Walmart Security (asset protection) Officers regarding a potential Larceny/shoplifter. Based on the investigation by HPD, Tenille A. Dashwood, 25, of Australia and Winter Park Fl. was arrested and charged with Larceny in the 6th degree, with a referral to the Hartford Community Court. Dashwood was booked at HPD and issued a WPTA. The unpaid item for which the larceny charge was applied was an "iHome 'Slim Swivel' iPad mini case" color red with a value of $21.14."
Emma signed a developmental contract with the WWE in 2011 and was called up to the main roster in January and since then she has mostly been involved in storylines with Santino Marella.
While there could be some fear that she may face discipline from the WWE, which initially released a statement that she was responsible for her own actions, there is a feeling within the company that it is a big story today but will be forgotten by tomorrow.
