A couple from the United Kingdom that was caught on surveillance footage having sex in a Domino’s has been spared jail time.
Daniella Hirst, 29, pleaded guilty last month to outraging public decency after she was spotted on security camera footage in February 2016 performing sexual acts with 31-year-old Craig Smith at a Domino’s location in Scarborough, North Yorkshire, according to BBC News.

Smith was found guilty of the same offense in September.
The couple was reportedly waiting for stuffed crust pizza when they let their “exuberant spirits get the better of them,” and had oral sex and sexual intercourse for 18 minutes against a counter inside the popular pizza chain.
During a police interview, Hirst reportedly "cringed" when she watched footage of what she called "horrendous" behavior, which was made public when a store staff member posted it to Twitter.

The couple was “very close to going to prison,” magistrates in Scarborough said, according to the BBC.
However, both Hirst and Smith were not sentenced any jail time. The two were both given 12-month community orders and a six-month curfew which prohibits them from leaving their houses between 7 p.m. and 7 a.m.
Smith was also ordered to perform 200 hours of community service.
