Police: Prosecutor Mugged After Calling Escort Service

TAMPA, Fla. -- A senior assistant state attorney general was hit with
pepper spray and mugged after he called an escort service to a hotel,
police said.

Assistant Attorney General John Rimes was beaten and robbed of about $500
on Thursday while staying at the Hilton Tampa Airport Westshore,
according to a Tampa police report released Monday.

Rimes, 54, was treated at St. Joseph's Hospital until Sunday, hospital
officials said. 

The police report states that two women arrived at Rimes' hotel room late
Thursday after he called an escort service for female companionship.

Police said Rimes had $200, but the women told him he needed more. He
went to an ATM and withdrew $300.

After Rimes returned, someone knocked on his hotel room door. Rimes saw a
well-dressed man through the peephole and opened the door, police said.

That's when the man used pepper spray on Rimes, beat him and took the
money, police said. The women left, and guests who were affected by the
spray called security, the report said.

Attorney General Charlie Crist said he will ask the inspector general of
his office to look into the incident.

Rimes could not be reached for comment Monday, The Tampa Tribune
reported.
