COLUMBUS, OH. (THECOUNT) — Miranda Panda and Brittany Walters, the two dancers arrested along with Stormy Daniels at an Ohio gentlemen’s club last year, are set to be awarded $150,000, reports NBC4i.
The Columbus City Council is scheduled to vote Monday to settle the federal lawsuit filed by Panda and Walters, who were arrested along with Daniels at Sirens Gentlemen’s Club, in Ohio back in July, 2018. The charges were later dropped.
NBC4i reports Panda and Walters will split $150,000 once the settlement is approved.
The women, who worked at the club, claimed they suffered emotional distress when they were arrested in what they say was a politically motivated sting operation by the Columbus police vice unit in July. Charges were dropped against Panda and Walters a week later. Charges also were dropped against Daniels, whose real name is Stephanie Clifford.
The October complaint claimed the vice officers deliberately fabricated portions as both women were clothed, and Panda was working as a server not a dancer at the time of the arrest.
