Flynt drops prosecutor suit in Ohio case
A judge in Cincinnati's Hamilton County Common Pleas Court granted dismissal of Larry Flynt and Hustler's slander suit against former prosecutor Joseph Deters. The case stemmed from Deters linking the Flynts to a bribery scheme involving a key witness in an obscenity trial. The Hustler entities had pleaded guilty to pandering obscene tapes and paid a $10,000 fine. Deters later left office to become Ohio state treasurer.
