'Tanning Mom' Speaks Out After Jury Finds Her Not Guilty

NUTLEY, N.J. -
New Jersey's "tanning mom" is back in the news
after a big win in court.
Last year, Patricia Krentcil was arrested after a school
nurse told cops she noticed a burn on Krentcil's 5-year-old daughter's leg.
According to the nurse, the child said she got it from
tanning with her mom.
The arrest has since spun a media frenzy.
But on Tuesday a grand jury found her not guilty of child
endangerment.
Krentcil had some parting words now that the case is closed. She spoke to reporters from outside of her New Jersey home (see the video clip above to hear what she said).
But is "tanning mom's" story really fading away?
Krentcil says there is going to be a movie coming out about
her.
And the London Sun reports she is buying a flat and moving
to London.

Rain moved in Saturday afternoon and the chance for it will stick around through the seven day forecast.
It becomes very unsettled across our area with clounds and showers again Sunday. The best chance for rain is in the morning and afternoon thunderstorms are possible towards our south.
Sunday is cool but we do warm up well into the 80s by Tuesday. With the warm weather comes a better chance for thunderstorms.
