PENSACOLA, FL - A Florida woman has been arrested and charged after allegedly urinating on thousands of dollars' worth of items in two separate Airbnb rentals, according to authorities.
The suspect, 31-year-old Nicolette Keough, filmed videos of herself urinating and then uploaded them to an adult film site for money, the Pensacola Police Department (PPD) said. An Airbnb owner filed a criminal mischief complaint against Keough on March 15 after she received information that Keough had urinated on several items in her property, PEOPLE reported.
The owner later found videos of a woman, who was identified as Keough, urinating in the Airbnb that were uploaded to an adult content website, PPD said. The owner also reported that there was a strong smell of urine in the home following Keough's visit.
Keough allegedly urinated in another Airbnb property owned by the same person on the same street. The owner found that an antique Crown Royal chair, rug, typewriter, four dining room chairs, coffee maker, bed, TV, record player, toaster, and electric fireplace had been ruined, according to court documents.
In a statement to PEOPLE, PPD public information officer Mike Wood said that police approached Keough after learning about the incident and eventually arrested her for felony criminal mischief because the damages were in excess of $3,000. Keough has since been released on bond. Wood added that Keough was allegedly uploading the videos "to make money."
"This kind of behavior has no place on Airbnb. We've removed the guest from our platform and are continuing to assist the host with their reimbursement request through our AirCover damage protection for hosts," a spokesperson for Airbnb said in a statement.
"Property damage incidents during Airbnb stays are rare, and our hosts are backed by our 24/7 global Community Support and AirCover, which are included with every reservation," the spokesperson added.
