DEFAMED: "Girls Gone Wild" boss sues rape accuser for $25M plus burger costs
APRIL 19--Upset because his live-in male "acquaintance" was set to leave him, St. Louis Blues center Mike Danton hatched a murder-for-hire plot that failed when the supposed $10,000 hit man ran to the FBI. As a result, Danton, 23, was arrested last Friday (along with a 19-year-old female cohort) and charged with soliciting the murder of his roommate, who is not named in the below criminal complaint filed in U.S. District Court in Illinois. According to FBI agent John Jimenez, Danton and his roomie had fought over the hockey player's "promiscuity and use of alcohol," and the athlete feared his pal would go to "the General Manager of the St. Louis Blues hockey organization and ruin his career." To keep that from happening, investigators allege, Danton concocted a harebrained scheme that included a purported hit man coming down from Canada to kill him. (8 pages)
