The double life of a self-professed pimp who chronicled his sexploits in a homemade reality show will be on display in federal court this year.
Detroiter Donald Clifton Allen Jr., known on the streets as “D’Nero Armani,” is scheduled to stand trial in December in a case that will feature video clips of his YouTube reality show “D’Nero’s Player Show” and explicit movies, including one of an underage prostitute.
The FBI and federal prosecutors have hundreds of hours of video seized from digital cameras and computers, evidence at the center of a case chronicling the convergence of alleged criminal activity and social media.
On YouTube, Allen is a big-time player offering advice on “pimpin.” In several flicks, he is surrounded by women giving him backrubs and pedicures or riding shotgun in a jacuzzi.
In reality, the reality show is misleading. Allen is a 50-year-old, four-time felon, a minor-league player so broke that his “girls” turn tricks in the backroom of a buddy’s Bloomfield Township apartment and on the streets of southwest Detroit, and so violent he once allegedly poured chemicals under a locked door of a bathroom where a prostitute hid and threatened to light it on fire, according to court records.
“Now a pimp can get some breakfast,” Allen said, after picking up a prostitute outside a motel, and pocketing the cash, according to court records.
Allen, who is being held in a federal prison in Milan, is scheduled to stand trial Dec. 8 on charges including possession of child pornography, sexually exploiting children and sex trafficking. If convicted, he faces up to 30 years in federal prison.
Though investigators seized hundreds of hours of video, a key part of the case involves only one, 20-minute movie featuring one girl, Allen’s defense lawyer, S. Allen Early, told The Detroit News.
The alleged victim was two months from turning 18 years old, Early said.
“It’s just one video of a lady dancing nude,” Early said. “This is not a case where there is alleged to be hundreds of pictures of nude sexual acts.
“And she had a Michigan driver’s license that said she was 18,” Early added.
That license, though, was destroyed by Troy police last year, a fact that Early says justifies dismissing some of the charges.
Besides, Allen did not force the alleged victims into prostitution, Early said.
“If the allegations are true, it’s terrible,” the lawyer said. “She’s under 18, that’s still a crime, but she certainly was a willing participant.”
