Charges dismissed against Stormy Daniels

#1 Post by Bob Juch » Thu Jul 12, 2018 3:35 pm

CNBC wrote:Prosecutors in Columbus, Ohio, on Thursday dropped all criminal charges against porn star Stormy Daniels, hours after police arrested her for alleged illegal physical contact with patrons at a local strip club during a performance there.

Columbus City Attorney Zach Klein said that after reviewing the charges, "I’ve determined that these crimes were not committed, based on the fact that Ms. Clifford [Daniels' real last name] has not made regular appearances at this establishment as required under the law."

"The charges have been dismissed," said Klein, who also noted that "my office was not involved in this sting operation."

The ultra-fast dismissal came after Daniels' hard-charging lawyer Michael Avenatti accused police of being politically motivated in their arrest of the actress, who claims she had an affair with President Donald Trump in 2006. The White House has denied her claim.

"This was a complete set up," Avenatti had said after Daniels' bust at the adult hotspot Sirens.

Avenatti posted on Twitter the motion to dismiss the case filed by Klein, which said "the State does not have probable cause to proceed on any of the charges set forth in the complaints."

In a memo supporting their decision, prosecutors wrote that police had charged Daniels with violating a law barring a person "who regularly appears nude or seminude on the premises of a sexually oriented business" from knowingly touching a patron while on the premises of that business.

"In this case, there has been no evidence provided to the State that Defendant appears or has appeared regularly at Sirens," according to that memo.

Let me remind you “Lap dancing "is not sexually stimulating", the chairman of the Lap Dancing Association told a parliamentary committee.
