SHOES, SEX, WHATEVER: HENTON ARREST EXPLAINED OR NOT
This is the internet, meaning that this is the place for rumor, hearsay, and spurious stories of dubious sourcing, all sponsored by possibly fraudulent products. So to combine the twin pillars of this glorious virtual universe, we promise that if you read the following explanation of Ohio State 3rd string qb Antonio Henton’s arrest for soliciting a prostitute, your penis/boobs/both, if applicable will grow to twice their normal size when you finish.
One sexual attribute-enhancing rumor, coming right up:
He was driving through that area (a few blocks south of campus) on his way to buy some shoes. While driving along, he was flagged down by a woman who approached his car and asked if he wanted to have sex. Then the uniforms came and arrested him. It should be dismissed as entrapment, and they apparently arrested 10 other people that night in that location. Henton really is a good guy…God damn man trying to keep a dude just gettin’ some shoes down. Fight the power!
What is omitted is Henton’s response to the solicitation, which seems important. We turn this over to the EDSBS legal department, since half of our readership seems to squeeze in visits in between billable hours, while the other half reads this from white-collar prison while trying to get in some consult time with the half reading this from their law offices: is this entrapment? And if so, can we say it with a Sean Connery accent while making eyes at Catherine Zeta-Jones in a catsuit?

I think his case is weak. The facts came out that when he was accosted by “said” female and propositioned for alleged sex, his response was “Nice pants… you got room for me in them?” followed up by–
“On tha’ trunk? On tha’trunk!!!
So thats what they call it–”going to buy some shoes” eh? Yo dude, I’m going to” buy some shoes”….in a secluded wooded area by the interstate…..

#2, I like this from the Tallahassee Democrat article (covering up for the football team)
No football players who have competed in games this season are involved.
So what you are telling us is that there are football players involved, but would rather play down that part of the story.

And by “my” only criminal trial, I mean I was the pro bono defense lawyer, not the aforementioned defendant who claimed ownership of the marijuana. Just wanted to clarify.

In my one and only criminal trial, I got a not guilty verdict when the facts were:
1. defendant arrested on warrants for unpaid traffic tickets, other car passengers arrested for various violations
2. pot found in defendant’s glove box
3. when asked by cop “whose pot is this”, defendant forgets “right to remain silent” thing and says “mine”
4. defendant testified he was trying to cover for cousin with legal problems, whose pot he thought it must be
5. now thinks pot not cousin’s, but was property of bitch (not what he called her on stand) with whom he was on a blind date — family is one thing, but not going to cover for that hobag
If I can get a not guilty in Texas on that evidence, then some enterprising Ohio lawyer can successfully argue the entrapment defense.

We need the advise of Chuck Schick. You know he’s clerking for me while he passes the bar.
