Perhaps she didn't know it was illegal for a member of the Navy to accept such gifts, perhaps she did know, but she has not been indicted.
See page 66 of the indictment where the $11,346 Versace purse which the briber bought for Mrs. Lausman is discussed. She complained to the briber that it was defective and they replaced it for her.
