Dolphins' Culpepper Cleared Of 'Sex Boat' Charges - It never sounded like they had the best case against Daunte Culpepper in the Vikings "Love Boat" sex scandal and a judge agrees, dismissing the charges. Unfortunately, Judge Kevin Burke denied a motion to dismiss charges against running back Moe Williams. (CBS 4)

Minnesota Vikings Love Boat Scandal Update: Culpepper Says "I Wasn't With Naked Women, I Was Gambling Illegally" - The hearing for former Viking QB Daunte Culpepper and running back Moe Williams seeking dismissal of misdemeanor charges of lewd conduct seemed to be going their way on Wednesday, as the judge in the case expressed concern about the fact that two white men--one boat captain and another man--hadn't been charged, even though they saw a little action with the ladies. Judge Kevin Burke told prosecutor Steve Tallen that, "It looks bad" referring to the lack of charges against the other men. Tallen responded defensively, saying that "I'm allowed to make that decision, and it has nothing to do with the race of these defendants." For his part, Williams claimed that while he did get a lap dance--which is legal in Minnesota--he had a drink in one hand and personal belongings in the other so he couldn't possibly have touched the strippers breasts as alleged. For his part, Culpepper, now with the Dolphins, testified that he spent his entire time shooting dice for $20 a throw during the now infamous team boat party and bravely rejected offers from the lingerie-clad dancers. The hearing continues on Thursday, but at the rate things are going, expect both of these guys to walk by the weekend. (Sports Illustrated)

Vikings Love Boat Sex Scandal Update: Vikings Daunte Culpepper Says Charges Racially Biased - Why? His lawyer claims the captain of the boat--who's white--wasn't charged, even though someone allegedly saw him  kiss a woman's exposed nipple while he was at the wheel. So apparently they've given up on the 'I'm innocent" tactic and gone with the "other kids were doing it too" route. (USA Today)

LOVE BOAT CHARGES RESPONSE: Culpepper Says "I Will Be Vindicated" - Disgraced Minnesota Vikings Quarterback Duante Culpepper angrily denied charges of lewd and lascivious behavior made against him yesterday (see below) adding, "I look forward to meeting my accusers in a court of law so they can be confronted with this lie. In the end, the truth will come out and I will be vindicated … I didn't touch anybody and nobody touched me." Meanwhile, Coach Mike Tice says no action against his players until someone is convicted because right now the charges are just accusations, but a spokesperson for owner Zygi Wilf, who once promised tough action against anyone found to have done anything wrong, claimed that, "Zygi made it very clear early on in this investigation, he will take whatever actions, penalties, suspensions, fines or whatever, based upon what he feels is necessary." But this is where the rubber meets the road, isn't it Zygi? Besides criminal charges, all four players could face discipline from the NFL, based on the league's personal conduct policy. A player who engages in criminal activity is subject to counseling, a fine of a week's pay and four weeks' suspension. (St. Paul Pioneer Press)
BREAKING NEWS: Four Vikings Charged With Misdemeanors Related to "Love Boat" Incident - Misdemeanors? What the hell happened to violating the Federal Mann Act about bringing women across state lines for immoral purposes? According to U.S. Attorney Thomas Heffelfinger, there was "insufficient evidence" to file federal charges. Translation: The Feds couldn't prove anything because the hookers and strippers kept their mouths shut . . . which--not surprisingly--you usually have to pay extra for, and we wouldn't be surprised if someone did. Anyway, while the four Vikes (injured quarterback Daunte Culpepper, Bryant McKinnie, Moe Williams, and Fred Smoot who threatened to sue someone early on for linking his name to the event ) were only charged with misdemeanors, the descriptions of what they where charged with make for some interesting reading . . . especially for their wives and/or girlfriends. (Other publications might be a little bit squeamish about giving the details . . . but not at BadJocks!) Our good friends at TheSmokingGun got their hands on the actual criminal complaint that charges each one: 
Daunte Culpepper: Indecent conduct, disorderly conduct, and lewd or lascivious conduct for allegedly getting a lap dance from a naked woman and putting his hands on her naked behind. 
Fred Smoot: Indecent conduct, disorderly conduct, and lewd or lascivious conduct for allegedly holding a double-headed dildo and inserting it into the vaginas for two women who were  laying on the floor in the lounge area. After one woman left he continued to "manipulate the dildo" inside the other woman in front of the young crew. 
Bryant McKinnie: Indecent conduct, disorderly conduct, and lewd or lascivious conduct for allegedly picking up a naked woman, placing her on the bar and performing oral sex on her in front of the crew and other guests. Later that evening McKinnie and three other men were spotted sitting in deck chairs receiving oral sex from four woman, which was also observed by the crew. 
And finally, Moe Williams: Indecent conduct, disorderly conduct, and lewd or lascivious conduct for allegedly grabbing the naked breasts of a "dancer" while receiving a lap dance.

Vikings Sex Scandal Day 18
Update #1: FBI is Investigating! As BadJocks predicted last weekend, the FBI is getting involved because of the Mann Act (transporting a person across state lines for sexual purposes). Can Federal charges be far behind? The Bureau is going to review the findings of the Hennepin County Sheriff's Department investigation into alleged lewd behavior by several players more than two weeks ago aboard two chartered boats on Lake Minnetonka. (Mercury News)
Update #2: Strippers From Atlanta's Gold Club Aboard Cruise? Minneapolis TV station KSTP has been able to confirm that Atlanta police are looking into the possibility that several women who work in Atlanta area strip clubs may have been flown up to Minnesota for the Vikings’ boat party on Lake Minnetonka. One of the clubs they are looking at is the infamous Gold Club, whose owners were tried for credit card fraud. It was at that trial that former NBA star Patrick Ewing admitted receiving oral sex from a stripper in the club while the owner and manager sat next to him. (KSTP)

Update #1: Team Upset With Way Local Fox Affiliate is Covering Story - A Fox affiliate sensationalizing the news? We're SHOCKED! (Star Tribune)
Update #2: Former Owner Tells Wilf If Team's a Mess, It Happened AFTER the Sale - So much for the strategy that this is all Red McComb's fault. (Star Tribune)

Vikings Sex Cruise Scandal Day 14
Update #1: Sports Illustrated Says Owner Delivered "Profanity-Laden Tirade" to Players About Incident - Okay, so maybe it wasn't Knute Rockne's "Win One for the Gipper" speech, but apparently Vikings owner Zygi "Potty Mouth" Wilf got his players attention with a profanity-laden tirade (according to the new edition of Sports Illustrated) at a team meeting after he found out about their little Love Boat incident. The article, called "Adrift on Lake Woebegone" also alleges that Tice and Wilf reportedly threatened to remove players responsible for the party from the team (BadJocks is still hearing it will be done before this weekend's game) and also alleges that coach Tice, during a late-season 2004 meeting, "offered to fight any team member who wanted a piece of him." All this from an unnamed current Viking. (Pioneer Press)
Update #2: Vikings Fan Mails in Tickets to Packers Game Out of Disgust - Season ticket holder Barbara DeCramer is so angry about this whole thing that she mailed owner Zygi Wilf her tickets for this Sunday's game against the Packers (The PACKERS, lady?) and says she will hold on to her other ones until she sees how the team's management responds to the incident. Said DeCramer, ". . . I cannot stomach the thought of cheering for this embarrassment to our state." Ouch! (WCCO-TV)

Vikings Sex Scandal Day 13
Update #1: Suspensions This Week? - BadJocks is hearing from a source that the Vikings have completed their own internal investigation already after a rookie cracked under questioning and spilled his guts, so the team knows who did what, when and to whom . . . in some pretty graphic detail. The team is likely to move quickly this week to suspend several players (no big names, of course) with the possibility that some may not return. The big question remains: where are the pictures? If the team has them--and my guess is they do, or they know where they are--they will never see the light of day. If you have some, how much do you think they would be worth to the Vikings or the NFL to burn them?
Update #2: The After Party? Another source tells BadJocks that the real fear at the Vikings camp now is that details will get out about an alleged "after party" that occurred at one of the player's homes following the ill-fated Love Boat trip.
Update #3: Civil Lawsuits Against Players? It's been over a week and still no charges have been filed by the thorough Hennepin County Sheriff's Office. And ultimately, there may be no criminal charges (the FBI has still no responded to our question about the Mann Act), but that doesn't mean players are out of the woods. Several employment lawyers are suggesting that female crew members who were allegedly sexually harassed by Vikings should file civil lawsuits--read big money--because of what happened to them. And we could be talking some hefty fines because it's possible the waitresses could not only sue for damages that compensate them for any harm, but also for punitive damages. (MPR)

Vikings Sex Scandal Day 12
Update #1: Investigators Talking to Atlanta Cops About Out-of-Town Escorts - This can not be a good development for the Vikings "Love Boat" Cruise investigation. According to the Star Tribune, local officials have briefed Atlanta cops about their investigation into reports that some of the "female entertainment" on board an alleged sex cruise may have been paid to fly in from Georgia for the party. This may or may not have anything to do with BadJocks question yesterday (see below) about whether the Vikings could be charged by the Feds for violating something called the Mann Act which prohibits taking women across state lines for the purpose of prostitution . . . and can get you five years in prison. Also, three more names of those allegedly in attendance have surfaced: Defensive end Lance Johnstone and safeties Ken Irvin and Willie Offord. All refused to comment on whether they were on the boat. (Star Tribune)
Update #2: Join the Club: Coach Mike Tyce Asks Press "Why Do I Want to Puke?' - We've been asking ourselves that for several seasons, Coach. (Star Tribune)

Vikings Sex Scandal Day 11 
Update #1: Former Player Says There Were Strippers at 2004 Party - According to an unnamed former player for the Vikings, last year's version of the "Love Boat" party, thrown annually for veteran players by rookies, featured out-of-town strippers. The evening started off with a dinner at a Mall of America restaurant then continued at the Fahrenheit Night Club in Minneapolis, both of which were rented out by the players. While some players did not go to the club to watch the strippers perform, even fewer allegedly made a trip back to the strippers hotel, where I'm sure nothing happened. These young ladies were also purported to be from out of town.  (St. Paul Pioneer Press)
Update #2: Players Paid $5000 for Love Boat Cruise? This tidbit from the Pioneer Press' "Overheard" column: "A little birdie says the cost of the alleged sex party involving Vikings on Lake Minnetonka was $5,000 a player." (St. Paul Pioneer Press) If true, that makes Update #3 even more of an issue!
Update #3: Could Players Face Federal Charges for Violating The Mann Act? - No, we're not talking about the Comedy Central program (that's "The Man SHOW") we're talking about a federal statue commonly referred to as "The Mann Act" which became law in 1910 to combat white slavery and more specifically was designed to punish those accused of taking women across state lines for the purpose of prostitution. How is this relevant to the current Minnesota Vikings situation? First of all, we know there was a team event aboard an Al and Alma's charter boat on October 6. According to the lawyer for Al and Alma's, witnesses claim to have seen women aboard the boat (reportedly strippers and/or hookers) performing various sex acts. Right now, all local law enforcement is talking about is possible charges of lewd behavior. But the most damning evidence--and the part that brings The Mann Act into play--is the fact that investigators themselves believe these boat babes were from Atlanta, Florida and elsewhere and reportedly worked for a high-class call girl service that caters to professional athletes. Someone had to have contacted the escort service and paid for these gals to fly into Minnesota for this event. If that happened, whoever was responsible could face up to five years in prison, according to the act which you can read for yourself here. Think the Mann Act is never enforced? Rocker Chuck Berry went to jail for three years for violating it in the late 50's. And, as recently as last month, the statute was used by the U.S. Attorney of the Northern District of New York to arrest Oswego Mayor John Gosek and accused him of using a telephone to "persuade, induce, entice and coerce an individual under the age of 18 years to engage in sexual activity." Violations of the Mann Act are typically investigated by the FBI so we put in a call to their Minneapolis Division Office, but have not received a reply as of press time. (Thanks to Howard Veit for pointing out this potential violation to us!)

Vikings Sex Scandal Day 10
Update#1: Vikes Owner Meets With Tagliabue, Promises Changes - On Sunday, "NFL on Fox" reporter Jay Glazer broke the news that the Vikings new owner, Zygi Wilf, met with NFL commissioner Paul Tagliabue for nearly 90 minutes before the game against the Bears and promised two things: First that he would focus 100% of on his troubled franchise and let other executives manage is other businesses. And second, that he will bring in former FBI agent Dag Sohlberg to be the team's new directory of security, a position that had been cut by former owner Red McCombs to save money. (Fox Sports)
Update #2: Robinson Says He Wasn't on Boat - On Saturday, Vikings new wide receiver Koren Robinson said that he was not on either boat and was upset the Minneapolis Star Tribune associated him with this incident adding, "I wasn't there. As far as the whole situation, I just know I wasn't on the boat, and I don't want to get involved. I don't want my name brought up because of what I just went through and what I'm still going through. So for my name to be brought up like that is just crazy and upsetting, because I don't want anyone looking at me because I had nothing to do with it." (KRT Wire)

Day 9 Updates
Update #1: Lists of Names Starting to Leak Out - A list of names of the 17 or so Vikings who were aboard the team cruise that allegedly turned into an orgy is starting to become clearer. In addition to earlier reports that QB Daunte Culpepper, offensive tackle Bryant McKinnie, running back Mewelde Moore and cornerback Fred Smoot (allegedly the organizer of the event) had enlisted in the Viking Navy, the Minneapolis Star Tribune today added All-Pro defensive tackle Kevin Williams, tight end Jermaine Wiggins; running back Moe Williams; wide receivers Nate Burleson, Troy Williamson, Travis Taylor and Koren Robinson; cornerback Ralph Brown, and safety Darren Sharper to the list. (That accounts for 13 players by my count.) Of those named, only Moore has admitted being on the boat, but claims not to have seen any sexual activity. (Star Tribune)
Update #2: New Owner Busting Heads, Taking Names: "We Will Levy the Appropriate Penalties, Fines and/or Suspensions as Soon as the Formal Investigation is Completed!" - Details of what Zygi Wilf has to say about his team's alleged sex orgy here.

Vikings "Love Boat" Scandal Update #1: Naughty Vikings Thought They Were in "International Waters" - One source is telling BadJocks that a Vikings player aboard the boat thought they would be immune from legal prosecution for their actions because the boat was, "In international waters." When told that Lake Minnetonka was nowhere near international waters (12 miles out into the ocean) the player's response was reportedly one word: "Sh*t!" (Thanks to our buddies Karlson and McKenzie for the tip!)
Update #2: Source Says Misdemeanor Charges of Lewd Behavior Could Be Filed Against Players Within a Week! - How bad was it about the SS Horndog? The captain had to step around people who were having sex on the floor of the boat and at that point decided it wouldn't be safe out in the middle of the lake like that, so they turned back. Stephen Doyle, the company's attorney said, "It was a petrifying scene.'' Doyle went on to say that the investigation into the party is now focused on finding dozens of pictures taken on board. Said Doyle, "Members of the entourage that were on both boats took enormously detailed photographs of a variety of sexual acts." According to sources, many of the Viking star players attended the party, including quarterback Daunte Culpepper. Ironically, while this incident was going on, team owners and upper management were at a two-day retreat in Chaska, Minn and spent a great deal of time talking about team conduct. Has anyone seen the list of involved players names online? Drop us an email at BadJocks@Yahoo.com. (Sun Times, WCCO-TV)

Update #3: Actions of Players Could Threaten Stadium Deal - Public funding for a new $780 million stadium for the NFL franchise could be in trouble now if allegations of player nautical sex-scapades turn out to be true. According to one local political science professor, "When you think of supplicants for public money, you don't think of yacht orgy-ists as having a good argument." (Pioneer Press)
Earlier: Coach Tice 'Not Happy' With Sex Party Report, Players Deny Allegations But Cops Still Investigating - The Minnesota Vikings were having enough trouble on the field this season that they didn't need an off-the-field incident like what has been brewing over the past few days, and Coach Mike Tice is not happy at all adding "It doesn't make things any simpler." Closer to the epicenter of the storm is cornerback Fred Smoot, who was named by Stephen Doyle, an attorney representing the boats' owners, as one of two players who paid for the rentals . . . and he's looking to sue someone's ass. Said Smoot, "They're killing my name. Point blank. Somebody's going to have to pay for it." Meanwhile a TV reporter claims to have gotten his hands on a list of names of the 16 or so other Vikings who were in attendance at the party that included free safety Darren Sharper's name on it. When asked, all Sharper would say is, "Somebody must have lied." When asked about allegations of sex on the cruise, running back Mewelde Moore, who was also allegedly onboard one of the boats, responded, "Sex? What are you talking about, is that what? Man, what are you talking about? That's crazy. Sex?" More bad news: even if the cops don't find anything illegal that went on, the way the NFL's personal conduct policy is written, the players involved could face fines or other punishments even if they didn't break the law. (WCCO) At right, a picture of one of the ships allegedly rented by Viking players from Al and Alma's on Lake Minnetonka. 
EARLIER: Lawyer Claims Minnesota Vikings Boat Cruise Featured Nudity, Lap Dances, and "Sexual Acts With Toys in the Middle of the Floor" - Either the Vikings really know how to throw a party or the owners of a lake cruise company have some pretty wild imaginations. Details are just now surfacing about an alleged "traditional team event" that took place last Thursday night on Lake Minnetonka aboard two boats chartered from a place called Al and Alma's, by cornerback Fred Smoot and another Vikings player. According to Stephen Doyle, a lawyer representing the the charter company, the cruise quickly evolved from a simple event with 16 to 17 players in attendance to an out-of-control party that included lap dances and sexual acts. In fact, the Hennepin County Sheriff's Department is investigating allegations of criminal sexual conduct by several Vikings players after a woman--who claimed she was working as a hostess on the ship--called police making allegations of "possible prostitution, drugs and live sex acts" on the two boats. Doyle got more specific than that: 
"They were out for a bit, and then the crew was serving drinks and hors d'oeuvres and stuff. I think the first thing they noticed was some of the women that were on board seemed to be either changing clothes or undressing. And then they went into a galley, and there were three of them in the nude that were changing clothes. That was followed by them coming out and some of them doing lap dances.... That's where it started, and then it just progressed to just bizarre."
At that point Doyle claimed the crew reported what was happening to the captain of each boat who called the home base and were told to come back in. That's when things got really out of hand:
"Some of the Vikings are yelling at the waiters and waitresses... and wanting drinks faster and trying to take over parts of the bar, trying to pour their own drinks.... It's just really bizarre, bad, terrible behavior. Like I said, these kids are petrified. They're afraid for their own safety. There are people doing sexual acts with toys in the middle of the floor. They're on a boat here, having to walk around and serve a drink, afraid to stop serving drinks because they're afraid that people will hurt them. It's just really unacceptable what they did -- the arrogance and the rudeness and all of those things combined. They get them into the dock and eventually get off the boat. We're talking about a scene with used condoms on the boats laying around, handy wipes used by the women laying around, drinks thrown and poured in places. It's amazing."
When contacted, Smoot not only denied the charges but went on to say that "It's slanderous. If (Doyle is) bringing my name up like this, I'm going to sue them. Other than that, I ain't got nothing else to say." We really expect things to start heating up for the Vikes when the names of some of the other players start popping up.

BADJOCKS FLASHBACK - Anyone else remember the allegations of sexual assault against several former Vikings at a team charity event in 2003 called the Artic Blast? One of those accused, former Viking Ted Brown, is just now going to trial!
