UPDATE: John Edwards' secret meeting with his mistress at the Beverly Hilton hotel has now become part of a criminal complaint.
NATIONAL ENQUIRER reporters Alan Butterfield and Alexander Hitchen filed a criminal complaint with the Beverly Hills Police Department on Thursday, July 24, charging that hotel security acted unlawfully while the reporters were trying to question the former senator.
Edwards now could be contacted by police to give an eyewitness account of what occurred.
Hotel security tried to stop the reporters from questioning Edwards in the basement of the hotel at approximately 2:40 a.m. Tuesday, July 22 after Edwards came off an elevator and appeared to be attempting to leave the hotel unseen.
His secret mistress Rielle Hunter and her baby were upstairs, and Edwards had just spent hours with them in a secret rendezvous.
As Butterfield and Hitchen tried to question Edwards, he ran down a hallway and ducked into a men's public bathroom. The reporters attempted to follow him in and Edwards pushed the door shut from inside.
Hotel security showed up and intervened. The reporters charge that not only did one security guard threaten to break their camera but that security also violated several statutes of the California Penal Code, including false imprisonment and preventing a guest from entering land.
The ENQUIRER reporters were registered guests at the hotel, while Edwards was not.
Police recorded the criminal complaint and will turn it over to detectives.

Good laugh!
Yipes. And as far as sex appeal, Edwards is just so ... smarmy. Yecccchhh. He's double-smarmy on a stick, with that John-boy grin and that tyke hair ... *shiver* What an oily character. What kind of female would ... Oh well. I suppose I've done stranger things ...
Bump-to-the-truth.
It might be a resume enhancer but he still has a sick wife at home.
Edwards’ wife, with terminal bone cancer, gets kicked to the side by the pretty boy who is beyond disgusting.
I hope she kicks him out of their Chapel Hill mansion all the way to California or beyond..... NC is sick to death of him!
Once he is gone, dear Mrs. Edwards, come over to the LIGHT....and may compassionate conservatives surround you with support, empathy, prayer, and kindness. That’s what conservatives do.
I think Mrs. Clinton is off the short list for Obamma Lamma Ding Dongs V.P.
BUT You have to know that the Clintons are going to take down anyne who sided against Mrs. Clinton and one of those was Mr. Edwards.
He should consider himself lucky. He just got caught up in a sex scandal and didn’t wind up dead, yet.
