COLUMBUS, Ohio (CBSNewYork/AP) – Stormy Daniels ‘ lawyer says the adult film actress is in police custody in Ohio and is accused of letting patrons touch her in violation of a state law. Attorney Michael Avenatti says Daniels was arrested at a strip club in Columbus Wednesday night for allegedly allowing a customer to touch her in a “non-sexual manner” on stage. Avenatti calls the arrest “a set up.” An Ohio law known as the Community Defense Act prohibits anyone who isn’t a family member to touch a nude or semi-nude dancer. Daniels, whose real name is Stephanie Clifford, was in police custody early Thursday morning and was expected to face a misdemeanor charge. “It’s absurd that law enforcement resources are being spent to conduct a sting operation related to customers touching performers in a strip club in a non-sexual manner,” said Avenatti. Avenatti posted on Twitter on Thursday morning that Daniels will plead not guilty to three misdemeanor charges. As I head out to a very important NATO meeting, I see that FBI Lover/Agent Lisa Page is dodging a Subpoena & is refusing to show up and testify. What can she possibly say about her statements and lies. So much corruption on the other side. Where is the Attorney General? @FoxNews — Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) July 12, 2018 A Columbus police spokeswoman didn’t immediately respond to a message seeking comment. A person who answered the phone at the strip club declined to comment. Daniels has said she had sex with President Donald Trump in 2006 , when he was married, which Trump has denied. She’s suing Trump and his former longtime personal attorney, Michael Cohen, and seeking to invalidate a nondisclosure agreement that she signed days before the 2016 presidential election. According to Sirens’ website, Daniels was scheduled to perform Wednesday and Thursday night. (© Copyright 2018 CBS Broadcasting Inc. All Rights Reserved.

Lawyer: Stormy Daniels Arrested At Ohio Strip Club
SACRAMENTO, Calif. (AP) — A federal judge has dismissed the federal government’s claim that U.S. law trumps two California laws intended to protect immigrants who are in the country illegally. The ruling by U.S. District Judge John Mendez follows his ruling last week that found California was within its rights to pass two of the three sanctuary laws. He ruled Monday that the federal government could proceed with its attempt to block part of a third California sanctuary law. Mendez rejected the U.S. government’s argument the U.S. Constitution gives the federal government pre-eminent power to regulate immigration. The Trump administration argued that California is obstructing its immigration enforcement efforts. He ruled last week that California cannot enforce a third law that prohibits employers from allowing immigration officials on their property without warrants. (© Copyright 201 8 The Associated Press.
