Greenburgh Trial : Last Day of Testimony
» Professional Dominatrices
It isn’t surprising that the case of the police officer vs. former professional dominatrix would be come he said, she said. Nor ugly.
Erik Ward’s defence attorney:
“You have met Greenburgh’s Tawana Brawley. I suggest this was a hoax from the absolute beginning,” lawyer Andrew Quinn told the judge at the conclusion of Ward’s criminal trial in Greenburgh Town Court. “When you compare the credibility of Erik Ward to the credibility of Gina Pane, it is absurdly a no-contest.”
Being a ProDomme hardly makes a woman inherently dishonest; just easy to smear.
Assistant District Attorney Gwendolyn Galef countered that Ward had mistakenly relied on someone of Pane’s background not coming forward. The prosecutor said it was difficult to understand what Pane did for a living, but that did not mean she was not telling the truth.
“She believed if she wanted help with her marijuana charge she would have to perform the acts the defendant wanted her to,” Galef said. “She was a woman pushed into doing something by a police officer abusing his position.”

Comments
why does everyone assume that police officers are law abiding and honest. I have seen time and time again the breaking off criminal and civil laws by police officers. too say that her statement have a validity is absurd,considering why would she make these accusations in the first place. She was intimidated period.
