Django Unchained actress charged with lewd conduct
[INDEPENDENT.CO.UK] Daniele Watts and her boyfriend have been charged with lewd conduct, following a highly-publicised incident in which she accused a Los Angeles police officer of racism.
The Django Unchained actress and boyfriend Brian James Lucas were detained on 11 September, after a complaint alleging that the pair had been humping having sex in a car outside CBS Studios.
Watts claimed that the incident was a result of racial profiling, a view shared by her partner who alleged that police had mistaken the actress for a prostitute and he a client.
"It wasn't racial profiling, yer honor! All I saw wuz the moon and one brown eye!"
She claims that she refused to produce her photo ID when asked by police, and was then handcuffed and held in a police car as the officers tried to work out who she was. She reportedly also alleged that she had cut her wrist as a result of being handled roughly by the LAPD officers.
