who finished in the top 16, received a sentence of 45 months in federal prison on Thursday in US District Court in Norfolk, Virginia.
The 32-year-old pleaded guilty in July to possessing with intent to distribute more than 400 grams of fentanyl. She was arrested delivering nearly two pounds of the opiate in Virginia in October 2018.. That led to her downward spiral after her 2007 appearance. She had attempted to pursue a career in acting and singing with minor impact. Court documents called her “driven” and “a perfectionist” in an attempt to mitigate the sentence.
