Fox Business Producer Busted on Cocaine Charges
/
Here's a story you won't see on Fox Business Network.
When cops cracked down on a cocaine ring in New York, one of those indicted was a Producer at the Fox Business Network.
Katie Welnhofer, who works on 'Mornings with Maria' on Fox Business was indicted and charged with criminal possession of a controlled substance.
According to the indictment, Welnhofer made two purchases of cocaine - one in March and one in May - to an address on West 25th Street.
The producer was led into the court in a jumpsuit with handcuffs and with her hair pulled back. She was held on $15,000 bail.
According to her Facebook profile, Welnhofer is from Wilmette, Illinois. Before joining Fox Business, where she produces for 'Money Honey' Maria Bartiromo, she worked for One World Sports.
The Northwestern University graduate has also been a producer of Good Morning America and had stints at Inside Edition and CNBC.
In November 2014, she attended Eric Trump and Lara Yunaska's lavish wedding. At the time she and Lara were colleagues at Inside Edition.
She turns 30 years old Today. Don't expect to see a birthday shoutout from Bartiromo on Today's show.
Just saying.
