Porn Star In Trooper Tryst Dodges Court

Traffic Charges Would Have Been Dismissed Against Adult Film Actress Justis Richert

(AP)  A porn actress who claimed she performed oral sex on a state trooper who stopped her for speeding lost her chance to avoid the ticket he issued because she failed to appear in court Friday.

Justis Richert, 21, of Knoxville, must pay the $159 ticket within two weeks, but she could have avoided it altogether because the trooper has resigned and wasn't in court, officials said.

Traffic charges were dropped against the 16 motorists who did appear in court for tickets issued by Tennessee Highway Patrol trooper James Randy Moss.

"Had she been here, the ticket would have been dismissed," said Linda Neal, general sessions court clerk.

Under her porn film name "Barbie Cummings," Richert wrote on her blog that Moss took photos and video of their encounter in May and sent copies to her. She said she acknowledged having drugs she described as "happy pills," but claimed the trooper threw them into brush near the highway.

She also wrote that she told the trooper she made "dirty movies" and that they then watched sex videos in his patrol car.

Richert did not immediately return a call Friday.

Moss, 40, resigned, and prosecutors have said they would seek an indictment charging him with official misconduct and tampering with evidence.

"He's voluntarily resigned," Moss attorney Jack Lowery Sr. said Friday. "It appears to me a situation that should be concluded, but we'll have to see where it goes."

Investigators also are looking into more than 25 other traffic stops by Moss; they said women came forward with their own complaints after hearing publicity on the actress' stop. Prosecutors have said some of the women complained that Moss asked to see their breasts when he stopped them.

Richert has continued with her blog, writing this month that she has married, is moving to Los Angeles and plans to continue working in the porn industry there. She also said she plans to sell the pink Honda she was driving when Moss stopped her.

Just as the Sheryl Crow song says, that cop "looks like he never had a day of fun in his life."

Now he has!

Too bad he's supposed to be a real cop and not a mall guard chasing 14 year olds in skirts...

most cops are stalker types, especially security
guards. short sniffer types. always spying,
looking suspicious. being incognito.
always countering crime they cause.
because without criminals they wouldn't have a job. cops love criminals, they give them
employment. this is why they are against
the death penalty. you'll love to go on the
hunt, again and again.

Ok, but I'm still gonna have ta give you a ticket..lol. And Ms. Richert must think it's a great public service seeing that she insists on paying for it. Sounds familiar.....

this is truth, justice, and the american way?

even the courts should be admonished for this sharade

they have absolutely no right to enforce any tickets this cop issued in light of the evidence against him

and the ticket that the porn star got, its not legal

she should not have to show up for it

hmmm...sounds like a place where you could expect fair and equal justice and humane treatment..don't understand why she didn't appear. Plus she sounds like she has two active brain cells out to destroy each other. Poetic.

"Poster Child ",...I thought the same thing !!Cookie Cutter idea of his genre !

[caykasagi]

[scottyusa]

They deserve each other. Neither one appears to have any healthy brain cells.

I suspect you are a male. Just remember those words if a cop pulls you over and demands you give him one. LOL
