A 37-year-old Florida woman who left her phone at a local watering hole ended up in handcuffs after a bartender stumbled onto child porn videos she had stored.
Ashley Lynch, of Jupiter, is now being held on a $135,000 bond after being booked into the Palm Beach County Jail on Wednesday on child pornography and video voyeurism charges, corrections records show.
Lynch left her phone at a bar on Clemens Street in West Palm Beach on Dec. 23, and later called the barkeep to see if she left it there — then gave him the passcode for the phone to verify she was the rightful owner, WPEC-TV News reported.
Shocked to find obscene material stored on the phone, the bartender tipped off the cops, who got a warrant to search the phone on Jan. 9 — and found “voyeuristic videos” of children, the outlet said.
Last month, the Palm Beach Sheriff’s Department determined the children were 8 and 6 years old.
Also stored in the phone was a photo of Lynch’s driver’s license in which she was seen wearing light purple nail polish — the same polish seen on the hand of the person who recorded the porn videos.
