CORPUS CHRISTI, TX. (Kiii News) - A Deaf woman, 44-year old Lisa Bouillon, was given a two-year sentence for prostitution on Tuesday, after she was arrested for soliciting an undercover police officer.Bouillon has been arrested several times in the past for solicitation, and that is what led to the tough sentence.
Sign language interpreters were on hand at the Nueces County Courthouse Monday for an unusual prostitution case, in which the defendant was Deaf.
Bouillon, was soliciting an undercover Corpus Christi police officer. Two sign language interpreters communicated each and every work to Bouillon as the first witness, an undercover police officer, testified about what led up to her arrest. A recording of the bust was played for jurors.
It's not the first time Bouillon had been charged with prostitution. She has been arrested several times in the past, and in 2010, she was sentenced to prison for that crime.
