LOS ANGELES (Variety.com) - "Django Unchained" actress Daniele Watts says she was accosted by police and handcuffed on Thursday in Los Angeles after being mistaken for a prostitute. Watts, who played house slave "CoCo" in "Django" and is Martin Lawrence's daughter on the new FX comedy "Partners," shared the news on Facebook.

 

"Today I was handcuffed and detained by 2 police officers from the Studio City Police Department after refusing to agree that I had done something wrong by showing affection, fully clothed, in a public place," she wrote. Watts also posted a picture of herself sobbing as she stood in front of an office in shorts, a t-shirt, and running shoes.

 

An LAPD public information officer said there was no record of the incident as Watts wasn't arrested or brought into the station for questioning. According to Watts and her husband Brian James Lucas, Studio City police mistook the couple for a prostitute and john after they showed public displays of affection. Watts refused to show her ID to the cops, and was therefore handcuffed and seated in the back of their car until they could figure out who she was. They let her go quickly afterward.

Absolutely messy.

 

 

Prostitution shouldn't even be illegal anyway.

Take a moment to think of just flexibility, love, and trust~

She could have just handed over her ID. That's kinda what it's for.

This. Just show your damn ID and move on.

I never understand why people antagonize the police.

 

"Cops say they received a 911 call from a concerned citizen saying a male and female were involved in "indecent exposure" inside their vehicle ... with the door open."

 

She walked away from them after refusing to give ID, and got hysterical when they handcuffed her.

 

I just don't understand what she was expecting.

 

I couldn't read the story in that link btw. Who pays for news nowadays tbh?
