The arrest of adult film star Stormy Daniels, whose real name is Stephanie Clifford, was planned months before she ever arrived in Columbus, Ohio, emails obtained from a whistleblower appear to show. Daniels alleges she had an affair with now-President Donald Trump in 2006.

Emails obtained from the Columbus Police department by the Fayette Advocate appear to show that the police department was aware of Daniels' scheduled strip club appearance in the town and had been planning a "sting" operation for the night of her show.

Columbus police arrested the adult film star on July 12, claiming Daniels had violated an Ohio law by "touching" club-goers, who were in fact undercover vice officers. The charges were dismissed within hours after Daniels hired Columbus defense attorney Chase Mallory.

The Advocate said it was contacted by a whistleblower from the City of Columbus, who sent the news outlet a number of emails including news clippings discussing Daniels' scheduled appearance, as well as pictures of her with Trump and videos of her dancing.
