Ex-Channel 7 honcho Randi Goldklank — who resigned from the Boston station after a booze-fueled, airport tirade in 2008 — was arrested in Florida Sunday night after dancing like a stripper in a restaurant and threatening to put the arresting officer on the news, police said.
Delray Beach police were called to The Office at 9:35 p.m. because an intoxicated woman was “doing innappropriate acts” and refused to leave, according to the police report, obtained by the Herald.
Restaurant staff called police, saying Goldklank was “touching herself, removing her top and dancing on a pole like a stripper,” according to the report.
Goldklank, who just turned 43, was sitting at the hostess desk and touching the restaurant’s DJ equipment when a police officer arrived. The embattled TV exec refused to step outside, the report said.
According to the report, the officer then took her arm and led her out of the restaurant but Goldklank tried to run away.
Goldklank was slurring her speech, “appeared intoxicated” and threatened to put the cop on the news — in a scenario similar to her embarrassing Boston arrest, according to police.
“The defendant repeatedly told me that if I did not let her go, I would be on the news because she works for News 12,” the report said.
The officer handcuffed Goldklank and wrote that “it took several attempts before I had to finally force the defendant into the back of the car.”
Goldklank was arrested for disorderly conduct and resisting an officer without violence.
The latest arrest has cost Goldklank her general sales manager job at CBS affiliate WPEC-TV (Ch.12) in West Palm Beach. “She’s no longer employed at the station,” station spokesman Robert Emmers said today.
Restaurant manager Justin Jacob declined comment today.
Goldklank was arrested at Boston’s Logan International Airport three years ago after she threw back “three dozen drinks,” caused a disturbance on a plane and assaulted state troopers, screaming, “Do you know who the (expletive) I am? I’ll have a news crew down here in minutes and you will lose your (expletive) jobs you (expletives).”
At the time, Goldklank was vice president and general manager of WHDH-TV (Ch.7). She later resigned and headed south.
Goldklank could not immediately be reached.
That’s a “Given the choice between her and a sheep, I really have to think about it”.
She should have gone into porn; certainly has the mental makeup for it.
special elections in CT are an extra delight beyond the usual mid-terms ... I hate it and love it. Is anybody really interested in elections any more?
I’ve got 2 “full-time” campaigns .... mixing the 2 together so that I cannot remember which phone call goes with which campaign.
This is what happens when women get used to other people doing their make-up.
