N.J. Beauty Queen: “I’m Innocent”

clipped from www.msnbc.msn.com
Ashley Fuhrmeister wants to climb the beauty queen career ladder.

But her police record's getting in the way.

The Secret Service and North Wildwood police arrested Ashley and her mother last week.

They're accused of making and using bogus $50 bills at Wawa stores in Wildwood and North Wildwood.

But Ashley, 21, says she’s innocent and so is mom. She says her ex-boyfriend gave her mother money to buy his cigarettes and that neither of the women knew the money was fake.

The ex, John Laughlin, is the third suspect.
She was Miss North Wildwood in 2007 and really wants to compete in the Miss Cape May pageant this summer, "but with all this going on," Ashley says, "I really don't know what's going to happen."
