The New York Post said that Brooke Hundley, the 22-year-old production assistant who had an affair with ESPN analyst Steve Phillips, used Craigslist to hire a woman to make phone calls to Marni Phillips.
Hundley posted a Craigslist ad on August 5 offering $50 to someone willing to torture Phillips' wife over the phone. Courtney Arp, a Connecticut waitress, answered the ad and gave an interview to the Post. "She wanted someone to call her 'friend' that night to sasy her husband was cheating on her," Arp said.
Arp said Hundley e-mailed her a script of what to say to Marni Phillips. Hundley's script called for Arp to tell Marni that Steve had been cheating with a "young woman at our work" and "if you want to catch them tonight, they are planning to meet after the show at 12:30ish in the Target parking lot...."
Arp and Hundley called the Phillips' home in Connecticut from a payphone. Arp said that when Marni answered the phone, "I got as far as saying, 'you don't know me, but I work with Steve,' and she hung up."
Arp said Hundley asked her to keep calling the Phillips' home and got upset when she didn't get hold of Marni.
