UPDATE: Bond Denied In Sidney Starr’s Case
As previously reported, Sidney Starr, real name Sidney Favors, is accused of being sexually involved with a 13-year-old, allegedly assaulting him inside a Georgia hotel. On Tuesday, the minor’s mother said the child is undergoing extensive therapy to heal from the encounter. Her statement was read in the courtroom as Starr sought bond in the case.
“At this age, when he should feel safe, innocent, and protected, he is now forced to cope with trauma that no child should ever have to endure,” the mother said, according to WSB-TV.
Prosecutors also alleged Tuesday that Sidney Starr approached the 13-year-old in the hotel lobby and complimented him. Then later, per Starr’s admitted statement, the child entered the elevator with her and went to her hotel room. In the room, Sidney and the minor allegedly engaged in sexual contact, including sodomy, molestation and sexual battery.
In court on Tuesday, Sidney Starr’s attorney argued that she has only one prior traffic citation. However, prosecutors pointed out her lack of connections in the Atlanta area, citing concerns about possible intimation due to her reality TV star status. Sidney has appeared on shows like ‘Love & Hip Hop’ and Zeus’ ‘Baddies.’ Ultimately, the judge denied the bond. “At this time, this defendant remains in a no bond status,” the judge reportedly said.
