ShamWow Guy Arrested For Beating Up Prostitute
Slap chop to the face! Vince Shlomi, aka the ShamWow Guy, aka You're Gonna Love My Nuts, was "arrested last month on a felony battery charge following a violent confrontation with a prostitute in his South Beach hotel room," reports the Smoking Gun.
Shlomi says the prostitute bit his tongue while kissing him, so he had to punch her to get her to let go. We guess that's one of those things you learn in the real world, like how to survive a bear attack or how to fend off a shark. The police, however, say both of them were drunk, which sounds even more believable. The website reports that prosecutors decided not to file formal charges against either party this month.

On another note -- the reply button works!
"prosecutors decided not to file formal charges against either party this month."
Isn't prostitution illegal? Are we not arresting people for that anymore? And what's with "this month", are they going to wait until April 1st and say "April Fools! We actually ARE going to charge you after all! TeeHee!"
@krispykrink: For some reason, TSG's mugshots of her are from previous arrests, one in 2005 and the other in 2008.
@LastVigilante: I guess to convict someone of prostitution (be it the hooker or the john), it takes more than a statement given to police. As for the assault and battery, maybe the prosecutors felt it was mutual combat.
And I guess they mean this month as opposed to last month, when the incident and arrests took place.
@Hyman Decent: Definitely, but without them she looks like someone you would buy meth or heroin from.
























Looks like he stopped having boring tuna.
