Former Destiny’s Child member arrested in SC

MYRTLE BEACH, S.C. (AP) — A former member of the R&B group Destiny’s Child has been arrested in South Carolina in Myrtle Beach.

Online records show 33-year-old Farrah Franklin was booked into the Horry County jail just before 5 a.m. Sunday on a charge of disorderly conduct.

Franklin was released several hours later after posting $280 bond. Court records listed no attorney for her, and no details of her arrest were immediately available.

Franklin and Michelle Williams joined Destiny’s Child to replace two original members in 2000. Franklin left the group months later, and the remaining trio helped launch the solo careers of Williams, Kelly Rowland and Beyonce.
