On their arrest reports and sworn court affidavits, the officers claimed that they entered Sirens Gentlemans [sic] Club, where Daniels was performing that night, as a result of complaints received alleging prostitution and drug activity.
But in an internal interview afterward with a department investigator, the units supervising commander, Terry Moore, admitted there was no specific complaint at Sirens being investigated on the date that the arrests occurred, according to the documents. Nor was Moore aware of any specific complaint against Daniels that had been received by the Vice Section from outside sources.
...
A higher-up in the Columbus Division of Police also questioned Moores account Thats not how we do business, the official said. We dont randomly go to one club and harass them. Nothing came in on Sirens. We have to have a reason to go in.

Ohio police officer pleads not guilty to child porn charges.
COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) The former public information officer for the Columbus police department has pleaded not guilty to charges accusing him of sending and receiving child pornography.
Fifty-one-year-old Dean Worthington was arraigned Friday in Columbus where a judge set bond at $35,000. The judge said that if Worthington makes bail, he must remain under house arrest until trial, can't have internet access and can't be in the presence of minors, including his teenage daughter, without another adult present.
Local paper is very very tight with C-bus PD.
