Prosecutor Jill Icenhower
Alleged dirtbag Dennis Skeen grinned sheepishly as he was lead from the courtroom yesterday in an orange jumpsuit and chains…
I know because I was sitting in the front row right next to Skeen’s wife Michelle who glared as he passed but a few feet in front of us.
The former Westport hotdog vendor had just been denied a reduced bail after smoking hot Jackson County prosecutor Jill Icenhower convinced the judge that Skeen was a flight risk as he faces “multiple life sentences” for attempted rape, sodomy and sexual abuse.
Skeen’s lawyer argued that there were multiple things on the controversial video that shows Skeen putting the moves on a lifeless, 20-something Duke’s on Grand staffer “that haven’t been revealed yet.”
The attorney also made it clear that while Skeen had not been accused of slipping anything into the woman victim’s drink, that indeed he had not done anything of the sort.
“This is not the time to argue the case,” the judge responded.
Icenhower assured Skeen’s attorney that a complete copy of the video in question would be made available to the defense shortly.
The wild card evidently being, was there any sort of mitigating foreplay between Skeen and the woman “victim” prior to her losing consciousness prior to him allegedly trying to ride the dead horse.
Speaking of which, to date only loose details of the assault have been made public.
Here’s a very slightly edited version of the police description starting with what one of three homeless dude witnesses told police he saw while passing Duke’s in the wee hours of that fateful Saturday last month:
“Skeen looked at witness No. 1, stood up and covered the victim’s vagina with a bag and dragged her from the bar area towards a back room.”
A police description from Duke’s security video provided the following:
“On 4/18/15 at 0100 hours the bar closed and the (deleted) is allowed to have (deleted). The victim was sitting at the bar with Skeen and drank a couple of beers. Skeen gave two shots to the victim. The victim remembers it was 3 a.m. but does not anything else after that. She could not articulate that she had been sexually assaulted.
“Staff leaves. From 5:44 to 5:47 am the victim appears to become non responsive and Skeen is holding her. At 5:49 Skeen lifts her head and appears to kiss her. At 5:50 Skeen begins to adjust the victim physically in the bar high chair. At 5:54 Skeen places his left hand under the victim’s shirt and begins touching the victim’s breasts. At 5:55 Skeen puts his left hand down the victim’s shorts.
“At 6:00 Skeen exposes the victim’s left breast and places his mouth on the victim’s nipple. At 6:06 Skeen drags the victim off the bar chair she was sitting on to lay her on the floor. At 6:07 Skeen exposes the victim’s left breast again. At 6:08 Skeen exposes the victim’s vagina by pulling off her shorts while kneeling between the victim’s legs.”
I dunno, but there had better be some damn good mutual foreplay between Skeen and the woman employee on the video leading up to the above description if Skeen has a snowball’s chance in hell of dodging some serious slam time.
Stay tuned…
Skeen and his wife are sole owners of dukes and are trying to sell the business.
That’s what Skeen’s lawyer said yesterday in court….
Also that his wife had lupus. And that the combination of their financial condition suffering through all of this and her health was their argument for getting the bail lowered.
The night was very sultry, and then got very tawdrier…
You thinking about going into the romance novel biz, dude?
If I did this story would be good fodder for a smutty pulp fiction.
Hot dog vendor’s wiener is the devil’s food to passed out woo girl cocktail waitress.
His dirty old man glare pierced through her sweat and beer stained blouse to see her powder blue Victoria’s Secret 2 for 20 dollar bra. She gave him a dismissive look as she delivered the drinks to table 10 as he felt a rising in the crotch area of his mostly Polyester Haggar slacks.

Funny guy….
It is said that there are three facts of life: 1 There is no Santa Claus unless you are a fantastic looking woman. 2 Nice guys don’t always finish last but it’s tough to fininsh in the top three, and 3 The only difference between rape and intercourse is salesmanship. Salesmanship implies the ability to grant consent, something missing in this discussion. If his wife were to determine the punishment, I’m sure he’d be glad that hanging was off the books in Missouri, particularly as it applies to the part hanged, and the piano wire used to accomplish it.
She was right there, front and center Cowboy…
But she wasn’t wearing a cheerleader costume.

boris johnson’s daughter?
How is it that he is facing life sentences but a woman Who bludgeoned her husband to death with a hammer so she didn’t have to get a divorce only gets 10 years? Yes I know that smug look and smile he uses, but all I can think of is his poor daughter who idolized him. I hate what this is doing to her. I wish he would of thought about her before doing whatever to that idiot employee of his. Well I guess this is one way of getting out of paying his child support.
