Current WWE Diva Emma, real name Tenille Dashwood, was reported to be arrested in Hartford, Connecticut yesterday, the site of last night's episode of RAW.

It is being said that Dashwood was arrested for attempting to steal an iPod case from a Hartford Walmart, but this part of the story remains unconfirmed. What CAN be confirmed, however, is that she was taken into custoday and booked with a charge of sixth-degree larceny.

Word of the incident had been making its way around the internet, with people saying they saw the report on the local Hartford news. A copy of the Hartford police record, confirming the arrest and larceny charge, can be viewed on the Hartford.gov website police blotter under the "Arrest Log" tab. You can also view the specific section naming Dashwood's arrest in the image below:

There's been an update http://www.cagesideseats.com/2014/7/1/5861924/emma-already-finished-with-court-her-lawyer-says-arrest-was-due-to-a

cording to a report in The Hartford Courant, Tenille Dashwood, known by her character name Emma in WWE, appeared in community court on Tuesday for her arrest yesterday at a Wal-Mart in Hartford, Connecticut.

According to her lawyer, Hubert Santos, Ms. Dashwood was order to community service. The report doesn't provide any details about the amount of time she must do, or the timeframe within which she must perform the service.

Emma was charged with sixth-degree larceny for the alleged theft of an iPhone case. She was arrested at approximately 1PM Eastern time and released at 2:13PM. She was backstage at Raw, but did not appear on the show.

Mr. Santos told The Courant that the arrest was due to "a mistake". Emma was using the self-checkout machine at the Hartford Wal-Mart, where she paid for $30 worth of items but forgot to pay for the case.

This would seem to be the end of the legal process for the Diva. Her employers have issued a statement on the situation, but it does not address any punishment from the company. While it seems unlikely that this would result in official action when past arrests for more high profile charges like driving under the influence have not, time will tell what unofficial ramifications there are for her on-screen character or overall career development.

She's been released

She's now been rehired.

Apparently people pointed out to WWE that other people had been arrested for 'worse' crimes and not fired, so it looked like quite the severe double-standard.

she only missed an Iced Tea advert!

But this leads to the point, she probably deserves to be fired for only being in WWE for Iced Tea adverts.

Someone on another board suggested that she was rehired because WWE are touring Australia shortly and Emma is the only Australian on the roster.

But, as you say, it does seem rather unfair to release her for this when they've had people who've done far worse on their roster.
