    Nashville parents get probation for hiring stripper for 16-year-old son

    You gotta love the South....


    NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) - A couple pleaded guilty Thursday to hiring a stripper for their son's 16th birthday party and were sentenced to two years probation.

    Landon and Anette Pharris, who were charged with contributing the delinquency of a minor, also were ordered to take parenting classes. The parents hired the stripper to perform at a September party attended by about a dozen young people. Cassandra Park, 29, who police say used the stage name Sassy, danced for a few hours before partygoers took up a collection and paid her $150 US more to fully disrobe, Anette Pharris said.

    The stripper and the man she was with were also granted probation.

    Police were tipped off to the party by a photo developer at a drug store who saw pictures of the occasion.

    Pharris said after being arrested that she tried to do something special for her son.

    "We even had grandpa there," she said.
