An Everett Washington man met 19-year-old Ashley Dawson through MySpace, inviting her over to his place for what he hoped would be a night of passion. Instead, Andrew Scarbrough found himself stark naked and soaking wet as his Ford Mustang disappeared into the night along with his mobile phone, wallet, and laptop. Dawson had told him to get warmed up in the shower and wait for a “surprise” — in his excitement, Scarbrough apparently shed his common sense along with his pants.
Scarbrough says he would have chased her down, clothed or not, if he’d had a chance. It’s probably a good thing he didn’t, because we all know the likely result of a naked man chasing a young woman — even a thief — down a street at night.
As for Dawson, she showed up in court with a smirk on her face, probably because she got off easy on her last burglary two years ago. Dawson was arrested after stealing the car a second time — she was so bold that she went after the car again, at its owner’s workplace this time, even after police had located it and towed it back to Scarbrough.
It appears that Dawson lives in Lynnwood, Washington, and this is her MySpace account.
