Or, How To Make The Cops Think You’re A Cheap-Ass Music-Video Director, And Not A Burgeoning Counterfeiter: “More than $1,000 in counterfeit money, a color printer, a computer and scissors were found in [Peter] Lehman’s and his sister’s rooms at the Extended Stay, 5851 N. Andrews Ave. The pair do not have a permanent address…. In Room 133, authorities ran into Lehman’s sister, Whitney, and roughly 20 more counterfeit bills, some stuck under seat cushions. Peter Lehman told authorities the operation was his doing–but he said he wasn’t trying to rip off the government. Instead, he claimed, the money was for a music video he was producing.” (NB: No word on whether Lil Wayne was involved in this “video,” but you have to admit that the image is pretty amazing, and probably full of fake bills as well.)
