A CUSTOMER touched HER and it's her fault?

Just rcvd word that my client @StormyDaniels was arrested in Columbus Ohio whole performing the same act she has performed across the nation at nearly a hundred strip clubs. This was a setup & politically motivated. It reeks of desperation. We will fight all bogus charges. #Basta

She was arrested for allegedly allowing a customer to touch her while on stage in a non sexual manner! Are you kidding me? They are devoting law enforcement resources to sting operations for this? There has to be higher priorities!!! #SetUp #Basta

We expect her to be released on bail shortly. We also expect that she will be charged with a misdemeanor for allowing “touching.” We will vehemently contest all charges. #Basta

Michael Avenatti tweeted late Wednesday evening that his client Stormy Daniels had been arrested while performing her show at a strip club in Columbus, Ohio. The lawyer wrote that Daniels was “performing the same act she has performed across the nation at nearly a hundred strip clubs.” Two nights earlier, Daniels danced for patrons of the Cloakroom in Washington, D.C. while President Donald Trump, with whom she alleges she had an affair in 2006, announced his Supreme Court pick from the White House. Daniels is potentially a key witness in the criminal case against Trump’s longtime fixer Michael Cohen, who allegedly paid her $130,000 to keep quiet about her relations with Trump.

1. arrested for what ?

[InAbLuEsTaTe]

28. Read the OP.

[Hoyt]

2. Hopefully Avenatti can cancel his next TV promotional appearance and help his client.

If he can tie it to trump great, but do something for her first.

[eShirl]

30. wtf?

[Cha]

3. Avenatti will help Stormy! Thank You, pnwmom.

That just gives more PR to her case, imv.

[dalton99a]

4. Michael, go help her

[Leghorn21]

5. I will assume no physical harm will come to her. If it does, there will be hell to pay. I will also

assume she’ll make bail with no problem, if she’s not released on her own recognizance. And if she is locked up with other women, as opposed to being ushered to a solitary cell, her wit, warmth, and gracious demeanor will allow her to have some excellent conversations with the women she shares space with.

Also, Stormy is about to STORM THE NEWS CYCLE, which hopefully puts SpankMe45, GREAT AMERICAN PATRIOT Michael Cohen, dirty “lawyer” Keith Davidson and one Melanie “I Don’t Care do U?” in an awkward, uncomfortable, panicky frame of mind because FUCK these mobster motherfuckers.

————Hang tough, Stormy, you’ll be okay

6. Give me a break,

with all of the crap going on in the world, the least of my concerns is Stormy Daniels.

[JI7]

7. if she was arrested for political reasons it should concern you

[NY_20th]

9. Yeah, I suppose it should,

but there are other people being arrested for political reasons, like the asylum seekers at the border, who merit a lot more concern than she does.

[JI7]

10. it doesn't have to be one or the other .

[NY_20th]

13. Of course it doesn't.

Priorities however do matter.

Stormy will be fine.

[canetoad]

11. You forgot to add

"In my opinion."

[NY_20th]

12. OK. In my very aware liberal minded opinion.

[LanternWaste]

34. I dig all the time you've taken to discuss how this topic doesn't merit your time or discussion.

[pnwmom]

18. We owe her a debt of gratitude for allowing her case to be the one

that got Michael Cohen in front of the public and may have led to the raids of his home and office.

[eShirl]

31. are you suggesting Avenati should helping them, too?

guess what, he is.

[Demsrule86]

32. This is political too.

[Laffy Kat]

14. It's bigger than that, NY_20th.

They are going after her for political reasons and it sounds like a set-up to boot. We can't let them get away with this.

[Garion_55]

19. I usually don't go into posts and read them when I don't care about the topic.

Maybe that's just me

[NY_20th]

20. lol. Ok.

[eleny]

8. Trying to keep Avanatti from going to London?

Tonight he told Ari Melber that he has an engagement there at the same time as Trump's visit.

[HipChick]

29. Awesome...he has a team that works for him

they can deal with the details

[bdtrppr6]

15. the saddest part will be

the long boring pole dances while she talks about her "obscenity' arrests* until she's just truly no longer sexy.

*sorry, Lenny.

[pnwmom]

16. The saddest part is that she's one more political hostage

and that any DUer wouldn't be supportive of her right now.

[SunSeeker]

22. Right?

Unbelievable some of the reactions.

[orleans]

25. +1 n/t

[AlexSFCA]

17. political prisoners; we are getting very close to becoming Russia

who is next? Avenatti? With a criminal in charge of DOJ criminal division, everything becomes possible now. And the conitnuing takeover of CIA and NSA will give trump near absolute power over people lives when those agencies work against american citizens.

[Quixote1818]

21. This means Trump should be arrested for grabbing women by the pussy. nt

[SunSeeker]

23. Trumpanzees are trying to discredit her. They are obviously afraid of her. nt

[Honeycombe8]

24. Yep. Sounds like a setup. nt

[DFW]

26. The Soviet States of America

In Russian, the initials are the same as United States of America, ironically enough: США

Having performers arrested on bogus charges to punish them for their political stances--now WHERE have we seen that before? It DOES ring a bell. Oh, yes, now I remember. But wait--I thought Republicans were ANTI-communist. I obviously got THAT one wrong.

[NBachers]

27. This is the kind of thing Playboy used to throw it's weight against, years ago.

Yes, I know Hugh Hefner and Playboy aren't in favor around here, but we're in regressive times in this country, and they actually used to be a voice for more than naked women.

[PoliticAverse]

33. This is the kind of publicity one usually would have to pay for. n/t

[mythology]

35. The affidavit says she initiated the touching

https://www.cnn.com/2018/07/12/politics/stormy-daniels-arrested-in-ohio/index.html

But in a probable cause affidavit obtained by CNN affiliate WSYX, detectives who were at the Sirens Gentlemen's Club said they observed Daniels remove her top and force patrons' faces into her chest.

"The officers also observed Ms. Clifford fondling the breasts of female patrons," Franklin County Municipal Court records show.

When officers witnessed those activities, three detectives approached the stage. Daniels allegedly made her way toward two detectives, leaned over and grabbed their faces. She shoved each of their faces between her breasts, court documents said.

She fondled a third officer's buttocks and breasts, according to the documents. Daniels was one of three people arrested at the club, but it's unclear who the other two were.

[pnwmom]

39. And the law clearly says it only applies to people who perform repeatedly.

This was Daniels' first performance in Ohio.

One problem is that laws vary in jurisdictions all over the country, so it isn't always clear what the rules are.

[pintobean]

40. This has never been a good person to align with.

Some actually hold her up as some kind of hero. Sometimes it's best to just ignore some would-be allies.

[pnwmom]

41. I'd vote for her over Trump any day. nt

[pintobean]

42. She's your pick for 2020?

I wouldn't vote for either one of them.

[pnwmom]

43. If that's the choice. She's a smart progressive. If she were the Democratic nominee,

I'd vote for her. No question. Anything else would be helping Trump.

I'd vote for a random name in the phone book before I'd throw away a chance to vote against Trump.

[kcr]

44. This is old news by now, but since this got kicked back up

This incident of her touching another patron was so egregious that these charges got dropped completely, like, within hours of her arrest.

[Maeve]

36. This is one of those laws passed to hassle women when they couldn't find a better reason

They couldn't make the dancing illegal, but they could put rigid restrictions on it and imply that the women involved are actually to blame for any reaction to them--the men can't help themselves, y'see, so it's HER fault! The law is almost never enforced (except when a politician wants to make a point, like during an election year when we have to be tough on 'crime and vice'). Stormy might not have been warned and someone was watching like a hawk to see if they could nab her on this. Smells like a set-up.

[NightWatcher]

37. Reminds me of The Doors and Lenny Bruce

Motivated cops would lie in wait for them to do their regular act and bust them for vulgarity, simulated sex act, or some other puritanical BS just to get them.
