Catherine Scalia, famously known as the “Hot Dog Hooker,” has found herself in legal trouble once again. The 57-year-old New York woman gained notoriety in 2012 for using a hot dog truck as a front for illicit activities, earning her the nickname “Hot Dog Hooker.” Now, Scalia faces stalking charges after allegedly harassing a man at his East Rockaway office and residence.
The recent arrest stems from accusations that Scalia engaged in persistent and unwanted behavior towards the man, which included exposing herself and making antisemitic remarks. The incidents reportedly occurred both at the man’s workplace and his home, leading to concerns about the safety and well-being of the victim.
Scalia’s past run-ins with the law have also drawn attention. In 2016, she made headlines for posting a yard sign offering nude lap dances on a swing, further adding to her controversial reputation.
