by Joshua Auriemma on March 27, 2009

Everyone’s least favorite infomercial guy has been making the internet rounds for his arrest in California last month.

From the affadavit:

Def. and Co-Def apparently met at luigis nightclub located at 2377 Collins Ave.  Def and Co-Def both went to the Def’s hotel room located at 2001 Collins Ave room #512.  While inside the room Def. stated that he kissed the Co-Def when all of a sudden the Co-Def bit his tongue and would not let go.  Def stated that he punched the Co-Def several times until the Co-Def released his tongue.  Co-Def sustained a large laceration to her right side of her lip/mouth, lacerations all over her face including several facial fractures.  While further speaking with Def. he stated that he paid to Co-Def approx One Thousand dollars in twenties after the Co-Def propositioned him for straight sex.  Def. states this after he was read Miranda per cord.  Search incident to arrest $930.00 were discovered inside Co-Def’s purse.  Money was impounded into property . . . .

Some thoughts that occur to me:

1.  Who carries around $1000 in cash?  Oh right, the guy stealing stupid peoples’ money with a non-functional product.
2.  Was Vince attempting to impress the nice police officers by rounding UP on the amount of money he paid?

3.  What is going on in California where people are paying $1000 for sex from a club prostitute?  A quick Craigslist check reveals that he should have been aiming for $200ish.
4.  Vince Schlomi looks a lot like Willem Dafoe in his mugshot.
5.  I’m amused that he stayed in room 2^9 for purely geeky reasons

According to the Smoking Gun documents, the second affadavit says she *intentionally* bit his tongue. There’s no disagreement.

Oh, good call — that was my error in transcribing. Thanks for pointing it out.
