Former Playboy Playmate Stephanie Adams has quite the resume. Miss November '92, who is an astrologist, author, and "descendant of two Presidents" is significantly wealthier today—$1.2 million wealthier, in fact.
Adams received a healthy payout yesterday after a new York jury ruled in her favor following a 2006 spat with the NYPD that left her injured. The million dollar prize was $385,000 more than her lawyer (pictured above) was looking for, but how can you not reward the client of a man wearing that tie?
Here's a description that Adams, Playboy's first lesbian playmate, gave Gothamist when the incident first went down:
What started off as a night of celebration for my stylist's birthday, ended up one of my biggest nightmares. Thursday, May 25, 2006 at approximately 10:42pm, I was assaulted by a New York City taxi driver (Medallion # 2J70) and called 911. He realized that I called 911 to make a truthful complaint about him, and in return, he called 911 and falsely reported that I had a gun and threatened to kill him.
The city has 45 days to appeal the ruling, and the law department will probably seek to have that payout reduced or the ruling overturned. Adams may be just a tad bit eccentric, but we have to commend her for keeping it tight for the past two decades. She looks amazing for 41.
