Late last night, Shane Sparks, the dance judge who was arrested Friday on charges of child molestation, was set free on bail. Upon his exit from jail, Sparks and his lawyer, Steve Meister, called the case “extortion, Hollywood style.”
He has a point, considering that his accuser waited 15 years to charge him with the crime and of course, waited until he had a little fame to his name. Sparks’ lawyer says the charges are “are completely without merit” and that Sparks “knows he is innocent and will fight to clear his name.”
We’ll see about that. It’s not a stretch to call it extortion, but then again, he isn’t THAT famous!
