There is something very strange about the late-night arrest of adult film star and producer Stormy Daniels (Stephanie Clifford). While performing the same strip show she regularly does, two undercover police officers arrested her for allegedly touching customers during the show, which is against the law in Ohio.

Reports as to the incident on Wednesday night are conflicting. While Avenatti says that Daniels was arrested for allowing customers to touch her, news reports say that the arrest was due to her touching customers, including two undercover police officers.

‘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.’
Either way, the presence of that many police officers inside a strip club on a Wednesday evening is suspect and the act that Daniels performed was not unusual. She is likely to be charged with little more than misdemeanors and her attorney says the allegations against her are false.
There’s no small amount of irony in a performer being arrested for a stage act that customers willingly came to see sitting in jail while Donald Trump, who bragged about touching women and “I don’t even wait” for their consent sits in the White House.
Twitter was supportive and Daniels and her attorney. See some of their comments below:
