Porn star Stormy Daniels was arrested at a strip club in Columbus, Ohio last night for “allowing customers to touch her while on stage in a non sexual manner,” according to her attorney Michael Avenatti:
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

Avenatti went on to say that it was a “sting operation”:
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

She is expected to be released this morning:
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

Now, we don’t know anything about these allegations, but we do know touching of some sort did happen at previous stops on her tour. For example, Washingtonian’s Amanda Whiting took in her show in D.C. and reported back that “her breast was, to date, perhaps the softest thing I’ve ever felt.” Whiting then gave Daniels $7 for the experience:

Update: The affidavit says patrons formed a line and Stormy used “her bare breast to smack” them in the face. She also fondled the “breasts of female patrons.” And then Stormy “grabbed Det. Keckley’s head and began smacking her face with her bare breasts”:

It looks like this happened at a club called Sirens in Columbus that was promoting Daniels’ visit. Did she whip the customers?
