Colleen Shannon, a 2004 Playboy Playmate, was arrested August 16, 2012 in Plattsburgh, N.Y. after officials say she illegally smuggled her boyfriend, Robert Skojo, across the Canadian border into the United States. Skojo reportedly has a criminal record in Canada and was not authorized to enter the country.
On June 18, 2013, the 35-year-old Shannon pleaded guilty in federal court to a felony charge and faces a sentence ranging from no jail time to 10 months, Syracuse's The Post-Standard reports.
