Kim Richards arrested

Kim Richards arrested

Kim Richards was mum Tuesday about her alleged sticky fingers at a Target store – but her ex-husband reportedly isn’t buying the claim she shoplifted.

“Now is not a good time. I’m looking at a house,” the troubled – and reportedly homeless – reality star said when reached by the Daily News on her phone.

The “Real Housewives of Beverly Hills” personality, 50, was placed under citizen’s arrest by a Target security officer Sunday at 4:25 p.m. at a store in Van Nuys, a spokesman with the Los Angeles Police Department said.

She was booked on suspicion of taking several items worth more than $600 that she “failed to pay for,” the spokesman told The News.

"I couldn't imagine Kim stealing or shoplifting anything. She is a giver," Richards' ex-husband Monty Brinson told Entertainment Tonight.

"I am in complete shock. Guaranteed this must be some kind of mistake, and the facts will come out soon. She was arrested for shoplifting toys in a cart, but this was a clear misunderstanding. This was not alcohol or drug related,” he said.


Richards was booked into jail Sunday night and released Monday after posting $5,000 bail.
The case will be submitted to the Los Angeles City Attorney for possible misdemeanor prosecution.

Her first court date in the case was tentatively set for Aug. 20.
According to TMZ, Richards was living out of her car at the time of the arrest after running out of places to crash with family and friends.

In April, she was arrested at the Beverly Hills Hotel after cops said she was acting belligerently and kicked an officer in a  drunken rage.


The bust was the Bravo star's second in recent months.

She was later charged with public intoxication, resisting arrest and battery and has pleaded not guilty to the three misdemeanors Richards, who has struggled with sobriety for years, entered a rehab facility shortly after that incident.

She sat down with ET in July to address the hotel meltdown and vow she was back on track.

"I love sobriety," Richards said. "I've always loved sobriety and relapsing was very hard for me. It was not easy. I have to say, don't take this wrong, but I really wanted to go treatment because I needed a break from what I was going through at home."

She said Brinson was very sick, she recently had to give up her beloved pit bull after it allegedly bit people and she wasn’t talking to sister Kyle Richards, another Bravo star.
“I went in and I got to learn a whole lot about myself,” she told ET. “I worked on me.”

Dr. Seuss's adult book & 13 Sexting Lessons

The literary work of beloved children's book author Dr. Seuss wasn't all cats in hats and truffula trees.

Tucked away in his canon of books is Theodore Seuss Geisel's adult picture book: The Seven Lady Godivas: The True Facts Concerning History's Barest Family.



According to Maria Popova of Brain Pickings, when Seuss left Vanguard for Random House in 1939, he asked his publisher to allow him one adult book. The resulting picture book is based on the legend of Lady Godiva, who supposedly rode naked on a horse through Coventry, England, after her husband, Leofric, Earl of Mercia, refused to lower taxes.

Seuss' story features seven nudist sisters who, following the death of their father, refuse to get married until each has brought to light "some new and worthy Horse Truth, of benefit to man."

According to Popova, however, the book was a flop and only 2,500 copies sold. It is now out of print, but copies are available (for a hefty chunk of cash) online.

In honor of the late author's birthday on Monday, take a peek inside Seuss' nude picture book.
