A Florida-based stripper is facing 1,036 jail term for allegedly assaulting five police officers with her vagina, leaving them infected with chlamydia, gonorrhea, and herpes.
The 24-year-old woman, identified as Britney Simmons, was performing at the Camel Toe strip club in Florida when a fight broke out between her and several clients at the club.
It was gathered that Miami police were called to intervene and arrest Simons who was highly intoxicated and acting erratically, according to the official police report.
Five Police officers tried to place Simmons under arrest but were momentarily indisposed when the stripper ejected vaginal fluids towards the officers, temporarily blinding three and injuring two, the police said.
“She just spread her legs wide open and started squirting in the cops’ faces, eyes and mouths from a distance of about twelve to fifteen feet,” one eyewitness told reporters, visibly amused by the whole affair.
An officer of the Miami Police Department, Miguel Aguera, disclosed that all five officers tested positive for chlamydia, gonorrhea, and herpes after being exposed to the vaginal fluids.
“Knowing full well that she was exposing the police officers to a number of sexually transmitted diseases and potentially HIV as well, it is considered that she used her vagina with lethal force against the officers” “explained Miguel Aguera, spokesman for the Miami Police Department.
Simmon’s personal lawyer, Alan Smith, argued that his client was defending herself and used her vagina within “appropriate boundaries of her working skills and abilities”, contrary to claims that she used it as a deadly weapon.
According to current Florida laws, Simmons could face up to 1,036 years in jail if convicted with aggravated assault with a deadly weapon against five police officers.

Ayo Shonaiya’s 9-part documentary, ‘Afrobeats: The Back Story’ premiered last Friday, and not only were we pleasantly taken down memory lane with many of our favourite songs from back in the day, we were also taken behind the scenes to an expose of the journey and growth that was, as well as the legends who pushed the genre into the limelight that it currently basks in.
One thing that was evident from the documentary is that Afrobeat as we know it didn’t just come to be, neither has it always been what it is now. A lot went on behind the scenes for years and years before the genre metamorphosed into the formidable entity that has become the rave in the music world.
Another thing that the documentary made obvious is the fact that Afrobeat, in so many ways shaped the Nigerian music industry. It makes you wonder what else contributed to the big bang success the industry has experienced. And one name comes to mind; TECNO.
You see, TECNO’s smartphones were the first-ever devices, precisely TECNO Boom J7, to come pre-installed with the Boomplay app, thus introducing Boomplay to Nigeria’s smartphone users and accelerating the adoption of music app streaming and subscription-based models in Nigeria.
The leading music streaming and download service has signed up over 44 million users and hosts the largest online African music catalogue in the world.
The app’s services have helped people listen to more music than ever before. Not just that, it is now easier for smaller and DIY artists to get their music heard. And it has largely eliminated music piracy.
These few listed reasons point to why streaming has been beneficial for the music industry, especially with respect to revenue.
Strolling down this particular memory lane has given us sweet nostalgia, but even deeper than that is knowing that history binds us in many ways than we realise. In the case of TECNO and Afrobeat; history will show that they both are intrinsically a part of the evolution of the Nigerian music industry.

The actress made this shocking revelation in an interview with GHPage TV. According to her, she met the guy at an eatery place in an area in Kumasi, Roman Hill, right after she passed out from learning a trade in bridal decorations, five years ago.
Kasawale said on their first meeting, the guy made a stunning comment of “I have been looking for you for a long time “ – which sounded as if he knew her already. She said he referred to seeing her in movies after she inquired what he actually meant.
The actress revealed that after he visited her in her shop and made a proposal which she rejected, he returned with ‘Don Simon’ which surprisingly happens to be her favourite drink.
She disclosed that after she took the drink, she began changing her mind on them being just platonic friends and told him that they could be in a relationship.
Kasawale said they started confiding in each other and she told him that she was being haunted by ‘spiritual marriage‘, which has affected her previous relationships and has been to several pastors for a solution but to no avail.
He reportedly promised to introduce her to his spiritual father whom she thought was a pastor, but wasn’t. She added that she started seeing changes in her newfound man,” his eyes could turn reddish and disappear within minutes”.
Speaking further, Kasawale said she believed she was still under the spell from the drink he gave her on the first date and couldn’t challenge most of his decisions.
She claimed he started giving her concoctions to drink and at times bathe with some of them. Eight months into their relationship, her boyfriend confessed to “working with 77 spirits, which comprised of dwarfs and Mammy Water”. She revealed the spirits were males and females and he gave her a ring she could use to summon the females.
He said that when she travelled to Benin Republic to visit the guy’s spiritual father, they made attempts to “send her under the sea to meet a mermaid which would climax her introduction into the spirit world.”
She said upon several attempts at the shore of the sea, she heard a strange voice shouting into her ears “where are you going”, which caused her to run for her life.
