UPDATE: After being pinched for her home prostitution business, Melinda "Mindy" Brennan offered police the best excuse ever. The divorced mother said the men she was dating just wanted sex, so she decided she might as well get paid for her services...

Melinda "Mindy" Brennan is a nurse with four children living in the fancy burb of Chappaqua, New York. Friends say she had financial problems -- over what we're not sure. So she decided to moonlight in the world's oldest profession.

But let's just say Brennan never completed the hooker apprenticeship training program. First she took out a Craigslist ad offering "sensuous massage" to "generous gentlemen."

What she apparently didn't know -- since she didn't read the textbooks -- is that police departments nationwide have been busting Craigslist hookers for years now. After all, criminals who advertise aren't very hard to catch.

Perhaps even worse, Brennan was inviting the johns to her house, which makes it really, really easy to get yourself busted, especially when you live in a fancy neighborhood. So when neighbors started complaining about suspicious activity at the home -- eeek! creepy men are showing up! -- an undercover cop made an appointment with our dimwitted enchantress.

When the 46-year-old woman accepted $200 as prepayment for barenaked services, she was arrested.

UPDATE: Mindy Brennan thought the men she was dating just wanted sex, so she might as well get paid for it.

Here's what she told police:

"I began dating during the summer. I realized most men just wanted sex so I decided to start charging for sex because I thought why not get paid. I started doing this two months ago. I set up an appointment with Andy. I spoke on the phone with him and told him the price was $200/hour for a massage with full service and (a sex act) at the end."
