Female police sergeant suspended after she poses for dozens of naked modelling pictures online

A police sergeant who moonlighted as a model has been dismissed from her job after raunchy, half-naked pictures of her appeared online.



Single mother Stacey Suro, 42, a 20-year veteran of the Houston Police Department, has been relieved of duty pending the outcome of an Internal Affairs Investigation after risque photos of her appeared on website Model Mayhem.



Her online activity was first reported on Wednesday when chiefs at the police department learned that Suro had posted almost 100 pictures - some of which were nude - on the modelling site.
