Jennifer Courtemanche, known for her role in the FX show 'You're the Worst', is accused of stealing $445,000 from her ex-boyfriend, Gavin Maloof, over three years. Despite living in a posh LA neighborhood, Courtemanche claims she's too poor to afford a lawyer.
An actress best known for her role in the FX show “You’re the Worst” is accused of swiping a half-million dollars from an ex-owner of hockey’s Vegas Golden Knights — but says she’s so poor she can’t afford a lawyer.
She is jobless and has no source of income, her affidavit said. But the station said it found that as of last month, her mailing address was an apartment building in Marina Del Rey, a ritzy oceanfront neighborhood in Los Angeles. Apartments in the building cost at least $2,700 a month, and some units have ocean views.
Las Vegas detectives uncovered the plot when Maloof complained to police that he’d been receiving harassing texts and photographs from several Voice Over Internet Protocol numbers — and cops traced the numbers in question back to his girlfriend.When Las Vegas and Los Angeles cops went to Courtemanche’s California home with a search warrant, they asked her if she had any idea why they were there.Detectives later said Courtemanche hid a phone while they were there, the station added.
“Burgess kept stating how she was confused, and she felt like she was ‘duped’ by her best friend, and she did not understand what was going on,” the warrant said.A grand jury later indicted them both on three felony counts of theft, one felony count of launder or attempt to launder money and several misdemeanors, the network said.
