The 35-year-old stepdaughter of Duane “Dog” Chapman was charged Monday with robbing a Honolulu bank.
Nicole “Nickie” Gillespie, who gave no home address when she was arrested Sunday, was charged with second-degree robbery. Her bail was set at $40,000.

Gillespie is the daughter of one of Duane Chapman’s ex-wives, and is not related to him by blood, according to Chapman. Chapman starred in the A&E TV series “Dog the Bounty Hunter.”
Police arrested Gillespie near Foster Botanical Garden at about noon Sunday.
