Music History Events: Arrests

November 26, 1936 Frank Sinatra is arrested by Hackensack, New Jersey, police on a breach of promise charge, meaning he didn't fulfill the promise of marriage after he "had a sexual relationship with a woman of good repute" named Antoinette Della Penta. The charges are dropped when it's revealed that the woman is already married. Antoinette goes after him on an adultery charge instead, but the complaint is dismissed in court.
