27-year-old Zyeama Johnson is a former postal worker from Jersey City, New Jersey who recently applied for a job as a security guard in the Hudson County Sheriff's Office.

Unfortunately, applying for that job landed her in jail.


No, her application wasn't that bad, but Johnson did have several counts of failing to appear in court on charges of fraud, along with an additional 10 bench warrants for failure to appear in court on traffic charges in Jersey City.

When she was called to the station under the guise of an interview, and was arrested.

Upon her arrested, Johnson was also allegedly said to be in possession of two stolen credit cards, so charges of credit card theft were also tacked on.

According to the Jersey Journal, the Hudson County Sheriff's Office specializes in picking people wanted for outstanding warrants.

Go figure.
