COP WHORE
A Hungarian policewoman has been sacked after she was spotted in a hard-core porn movie.
Livia Kovacs, 36, from the Budapest police force was spotted in the Triple X rated movie by a colleague who then told superiors.
She has now been fired for bringing the force into disrepute and misuse of her police uniform.
In the movies, she plays a dominatrix cop who uses her police handcuffs and a truncheon during a wild sex session.
Kovacs said: "I don't care about being fired. Since news spread about my acting debut I have been flooded with offers from producers to do more films."
