Dirk Nowitzki’s former boo is going to jail

Earlier today, a judge in St. Charles, Mo., sentenced Cristal Taylor, 38, former fiancee of Dallas basket-baller Dirk Nowitzki and St.Louis-area native, to five years in prison for three felonies and a misdemeanor related to theft and forgery.

Hat tip to the St. Louis-Dispatch for this one, and brace yourself for the close-up mugshot.

You can almost feel Nowitzki’s relief at dodging this one, can’t ya? Not so fast. Taylor claims she’s pregnant with Nowitzki’s child. Mazel tov, Dirk and Cristal!
