A Kentucky woman is going viral after reportedly trying to pay a friend's bail using movie money. Now, she's the one who's in trouble.

If you try to bail a friend out of trouble it's very important to make sure you don't end up in trouble with them. That would mean you don't want to use any sort of fake money. Don't use counterfeit money, don't use movie money, and don't use Monopoly money. You'll just end up in trouble like your friend. That's now the reality for this Kentucky woman in Hopkins County who's now facing felony charges tied to the incident.

According to WEVV, 39-year-old Felicia Howard went to the Hopkins County Jail to post bond for Jeffrey Kemble. Reports say she tried to use 14 100-dollar bills to pay bond and the jail staff quickly released that something wasn't right.

Major Jason McKnight tells WEVV, "Well, my understanding is, it was, motion picture money. So, it says that on the bill--'for movie purposes only' or whatever, so, that kind of tipped them off pretty quickly."

Howard has been charged with criminal possession of a forged instrument which is a Class C felony in Kentucky. You can read more from WEVV here and check out her mugshot provided by the Hopkins County Jail below.

Cort Freeman was born and raised in Metro Detroit. He was named Clarkston High School 2009 Class Clown 13 years after graduating. Totally normal thing to happen. That’s thanks to his time spent as an Intern at Comedy Central and Social Media Correspondent for The Colbert Report. Cort has done comedy across the country, both standing up and sitting down. When he’s not trying to make you laugh on-air and online, he’s probably at home enjoying his favorite shows like Seinfeld, South Park, and The Office. He’s also totally uncomfortable writing about himself in the third person. Cort enjoys writing about comedy, food, sports, and entertainment. So, basically anything and everything.
