Even though Natavia Lowery is behind bars for 30 years to life for the murder of Linda Stein, it doesn't mean she's staying out of trouble. Back in January she was charged with tossing urine at a jail guard on Rikers Island, and yesterday she had her day in court for the incident.

The 28-year-old, along with her cohort in the crime, Valeria Vincent, were indicted by a Bronx grand jury for tossing excrement. If convicted they'll face up to four years for aggravated harassment, criminal mischief and obstructing governmental administration.

The hearing only lasted 5 minutes, and according to the Daily News Lowery blew kisses to her family as she left the courtroom. One of her supporters yelled: "We love you, boo!" Her lawyer, Paul Brenner, told the press: "I believe she will be fully exonerated of the charges."
