The "Slut Defense"

Slow on the baseball front recently, so there's always the option to Phillie Bash!

Susan Finkelstein; the woman & Phillie Phan who allegedly posted a craigslist ad offereing sex for World Series tickets was in court recently (or rather her lawyer was in court for her...apparently she was in Mexico.  I wonder what sporting events were going on down there?).

Her lawyer made a--ah hem-- interesting argument in front of the judge:

Even if Finkelstein intended to trade sex for tickets - which she denies - that wouldn't make her a prostitute, her lawyer argued yesterday in Bucks County Court.  "You can be a slut; that's not illegal," attorney William J. Brennan said, comparing it to someone "who buys a woman a cosmopolitan and then has sex."

The Judges Ruling? Motion Denied

Perhaps she should try "If the condom don't fit, you must acquit" defense next.

Classic.
