Former Playboy Playmate of the Month arrested on felony charges (trafficking Oxycodone)
A Formerly Wanted Woman
Ex-Playboy centerfold, once a fugitive, jailed on trafficking rap

APRIL 5--After six months as a fugitive, a former Playboy Playmate of the Month has been arrested and jailed in Florida on felony charges of doctor shopping and trafficking in Oxycodone, the powerful painkiller. Tanya Beyer, pictured in the below mug shot, was nabbed late last month and is being held in the Palm Beach jail on $100,000 bond. Beyer, Playboy's Miss February 1992, was named last August in a probable cause affidavit accusing her of obtaining Oxycodone from three separate doctors. The affidavit, sworn by an investigator with the Palm Beach County Sheriff's Office, alleges that Beyer, 38, was "possibly doctor shopping as well as using and selling the scheduled II narcotics she was illegally obtaining." In early-October, police branded Beyer a fugitive, and sought the public's help in locating her via the Palm Beach Crime Stoppers program. On March 24, Beyer surrendered at the Palm Beach lockup, according to a sheriff's booking card, which lists her current state of residence as Colorado. After her 1992 centerfold turn, Beyer appeared in a variety of other Playboy publications and videos over the following years.

2. Wonder if she knows Oxyrush?
That's his turf.

4. I also wondered about that
Wouldn't it be sweet if she turned state's evidence against that bilious gasbag? :evilgrin:

Alas, I can dream, can't I?

11. Anything's possible.



Her and OxyRush could be Playmates. She might even be his latest gopher.

6. What a shame. She was such a lovely girl and
would have probably aged gracefully into an elegant older woman.

So many "Playmates" end up broke, on drugs and in abusive relationships. He sure doesn't look out for his girls.

13. Not exactly what you call
a notorious criminal. The help she likely needs is not going to be what the criminal justice system has in store for her.

14. decriminalize...
when are we going to do the sensible thing and treat these people rather than throwing them into the slammer. i had a problem with pain pills. i doctor shopped and paid out of pocket to renew the scripts at pharmacies. i was fortunate, i didn 't have to buy the drugs on the street and i had the money to pay for them.
treatment is the only answer. mandate it in lieu of incarceration.
