Karyn Turk was named Mrs. Florida in 2016.
Turk was sentenced a month in federal prison and five months house arrest for stealing her own mother's social security checks instead of sending them to nursing home where she was battling dementia. Stay classy, Florida.
In separate cases in civil court, the nursing home, the mother’s court-appointed guardian and the guardian’s lawyers are all suing Turk to collect money they say she owes them as the representative of her mother’s estate. The total amount owed according to the three lawsuits is more than $320,000.
Seems like a great daughter.
So, how does one follow up a situation like that?
Turk, who is now free, decided to spill the tea on all the details from her prison stint and they are wild. Turk sat down with the
Daily Mail.
The way the prisoners speak with one another is unbelievable. How do they spend their time? Making suction cup toilet earphones.
'Women with particularly ample buttocks sit on the toilet until they create suction inside the porcelain bowl. They go up and down like a pump until the water at the bottom of the toilet is gone.
'Then, you form a tube by folding a long piece of cardboard that you stick into the hole and, suddenly, you can hear and talk to others throughout the prison.
She then talked about sex in prison. There is sex between the prison guards (who are mostly males), she says, and the prisoners in the kitchen.
'There is sex between inmates, sometimes four at a time or more in a cell that guards have to break up.'
There are also sex toys in jail. How do they get them? They made them in jail of course.
'One popular type is turkey sausage from the commissary wrapped in the fingers of cut-up plastic gloves,' Turk said. 'There's also the kind made from hardened and expanded tampons and stuffing from maxi pads packed into plastic gloves.'
It seems like this is straight of the hit TV show "The Wire." She would watch guards sneak in goods for the prisoners.
She said she also watched guards smuggle items into the prison, mostly pillows, fruits, vegetables, particularly avocados, valued and rare because they are never served in meals, and candies.
Turk seems to be pretty proud about her interview as she posted about it on her Instagram account saying, "That face you make when you talk about #prison on @dailymail @dailymailtv @thecw l#mrsflorida2016 #karynturk."
Her bio on her Instagram page is also pretty interesting. "TV Host-Palm Beach, NY & DC, Red Carpet Warrior, Outspoken Conservative Media Personality. The Comeback Is Better Than The Setback #behindtheheadlines."
