The criminal charges against adult film star Drake Von in relation to domestic battery accusations have all been dropped.
The 23-year-old GayVN Award winner, whose legal name is Dawson Bacon, faced a slew of criminal charges stemming from an incident in Las Vegas on June 2. He was accused of getting in a physical altercation with his girlfriend, during which he allegedly grabbed her by the throat and “slammed her on the ground” and strangled her “by applying pressure to her throat, restricting her breathing” until she “could not breathe, and she felt like she passed out,” according to a police report obtained by Out.
But according to Las Vegas Justice Court records verified by Out, all charges against Von have now been dropped.
To celebrate the news, Von posted a video on October 15 showing him dancing while wearing a suit and lip-syncing the lyrics “I just beat the case.”
This led to the SWAT team being called to Von’s apartment because an empty magazine from a firearm was seen on his coffee table when police entered his residence to arrest him. Von, who has a previous arrest for domestic battery, refused to speak to police and requested his attorney.
When the news broke of his arrest, Von claimed in an exclusive statement sent to Out that the incident “was all a publicity stunt” and that all charges against him would “be dropped and [the] case dismissed.”
