5 police officers face punishment for arresting Stormy Daniels at strip club

Five Ohio police officers, including a commander, a lieutenant, a sergeant and two arresting officers, have been departmentally charged in connection with the arrest of porn star Stormy Daniels and two other women at a Columbus strip club last year.

Daniels -- whose real name is Stephanie Clifford – was arrested by vice unit officers at the Sirens Gentleman’s Club on July 11, 2018, along with fellow strippers Miranda Panda and Brittany Walters, on suspicion of sexually touching a patron while on stage, police said at the time.

The three women were charged with inappropriately touching and inappropriate acts with customers, some of whom were undercover Columbus police officers.

However, the criminal charges were dropped not long after the arrests when an internal investigation of more than 11,000 emails and over 30 hours of video determined that they were improperly arrested, according to Columbus ABC affiliate WSYX.

Seems an outsize expenditure of time and personnel for such a petty crime.

Sounds like full stack corruption to me, from the commander on down to the arresting officers.
