Woman accused of performing sex act in courthouse arrested

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. — Authorities say they've arrested a 26-year-old woman accused of performing a sex act inside a Florida courthouse and then posting a video online.

Jacksonville sheriff's office records show Brittney Lahcell Jones was arrested Wednesday.

The Florida Times-Union reported that Jones and 35-year-old Jeremiah Isiah Robinson had been wanted on a charge of a lascivious act. The newspaper reported a video surfaced online in January showing a woman performing oral sex on a man in front of what appeared to be a courtroom.
