According to ABC News, the Oklahoma City Police are investigating Jessica Alba after she helped White Mike plaster OKC with White Shark posters. After the pictures of Alba standing in front of a poster, holding up the victory sign were discovered by The Lost Ogle, White Mike quickly removed them from his site.
He has since put up a post “To the People of Oklahoma City”, explaining why posters of White Sharks were put up in OKC, when obviously the sharks don’t live anywhere near the place.
Alba did issue an apology which I posted here, saying “I got involved in something I should have had no part of. I realize that I should have used better judgment and I regret not thinking things through before I made a spontaneous and ill-advised decision to let myself get involved with the people behind this campaign. I sincerely apologize to the citizens of Oklahoma City and to the United Way for my involvement in this incident.”
Here’s an excerpt from ABC News about the investigation:
Oklahoma City Sgt. Gary Knight told ABCNews.com that Alba has not been arrested, nor have any charges been filed. Police are still conducting their investigation after a parks department employee filed a police report Monday. Knight said no more than a dozen posters were placed on electrical boxes, a traffic control box, a bridge and a United Way billboard.
The city has a number of laws, covering everything from vandalism to tagging, that prohibit the defacing of property. Knight said the owners of the property will be contacted to see if they wish to press charges.
They go on to say that Jessica would face the same charges as anyone else because it doesn’t matter what walk of life you are from.
Very interesting story this is turning out to be! The Lost Ogle has since posted two other posts: Is Jessica Alba Really Sorry and Is This White Mike?
What do you Jessica Alba fans think of all of this? Should she have not plastered OKC with posters and just filmed her movie like a good girl or are you glad to see her taking a stand against something? Fire away!
