Woman attacked police officer with 'rigid female pleasure device'

Carolee Bildsten of Gurnee was charged on Wednesday after she allegedly threatened an officer with what police called a “rigid female pleasure device.” Bildsten, 56, was charged with one misdemeanor count of aggravated assault and theft of labour, Gurnee police Cmdr. Jay Patrick said.

Bildsten allegedly walked out on a tab at Joe’s Crab Shack in Gurnee on Tuesday. Officers found her at her home in Gurnee, where she allegedly threatened to batter the officer with a sex toy, Patrick said.



The officer was not injured and Bildsten was taken into custody, Patrick said. She also faces an ordinance violation for pedestrian under the influence.

Bildsten was released on a personal recognizance bond and issued a court date of Dec. 6 at the Lake County courthouse, Patrick said. It was apparently the second time Bildsten had walked out on a tab at the restaurant.
