Some would say twerking is a crime deserving of an arrest but that isn’t exactly supported by the law, now is it?

Well in Russia it seems you best watch where you shake your booty, as three women have been sent to the slammer for twerking in front of a famed World War II memorial. Here’s the New York Post:

The sentencing in the Novorossiysk district court of a 19-year-old woman to 15 days in jail and two women in their 20s to 10 days comes after prosecutors launched a probe into a video showing a group of women twerking next to the memorial on the Black Sea…

Prosecutors said in a statement Saturday that five women were found guilty of “hooliganism” and two of them were spared jail because of poor health.

In addition to those charges the parents of one of the other girls in the video, who is underage, are being charged for failing to ‘encourage the physical, intellectual, physiological, spiritual and moral development of a child’.

Someone ring up Billy Ray Cyrus and convince him to move to Russia. There may be a slew of charges waiting for him when he gets there.
