Bartender Accused in Shocking Bar Rape

A bartender named Clinton Barnes stands trial for allegedly raping a 62-year-old customer at the Pleasure Inn last September. The jury now weighs damning video footage showing him and the victim entering a stock room after closing, alongside her fragmented testimony—she remembers only sitting at the bar, with no memory of what happened next. She later reported the assault, sought medical care for a UTI, and confessed to fearing she’d done something wrong. Barnes claims he doesn’t recall how they ended up alone, but admits to prior sexual activity before she became ill. The jury must now decide whether the evidence proves guilt beyond a reasonable doubt. Support the show:Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
