Teen Porn Battery

MARCH 10--A teenage porn star was battered by her former best friend in an attack that was videotaped and uploaded to Facebook, according to cops.

As detailed in police reports, Samantha Shahinian, 18, was at a friend’s apartment last week when her former BFF, Jessica Curtis, arrived at the Florida residence around 1:30 AM. “They are not friends anymore possibly because of Samantha’s job as a pornography actress,” police reported.

After Curtis, 19, got in Shahinian’s face in the home’s front yard, she allegedly punched her ex-pal. The teens then tumbled to the ground, where Curtis “got on Samantha’s back and started punching her in the back of the head at least ten to twenty times.” Curtis also allegedly bit Shahinian (seen at right) on the back “at least twice.”

According to a Manatee County Sheriff’s Office report, deputies noted that Shahinian’s head “showed some redness and bumps” and that her back had two “significantly large red puncture marks.” They also reviewed a video of the beating that was uploaded to Curtis’s Facebook page, along with the caption, “Guess who just beat Samantha’s ass.”

In a handwritten statement, Shahinian said the confrontation was the culmination of “months and months of online harassment.” In addition to posting naked photos of her former friend, Curtis’s Facebook page includes a screen grab from one of Shahinian’s X-rated videos.

In response to that Facebook image, Shahinian’s sister defended her sibling, writing on Curtis’s page, “That video made enough money to cover your bond 3 times. She gets paid to do what you do for free.”

Pictured above, Curtis, charged with battery, is free on $500 bond and scheduled for an April 2 arraignment on the misdemeanor count.

Shahinian, who told TSG that she began her porn career a few months ago, said that Curtis, in online posts, had used “crude, nasty language towards me,” and was “not ladylike.” (3 pages)
