More 2 Live Crew: In San Antonio, a judge rejected attempts to dismiss an obscenity charge against a record store owner who sold 2 Live Crew’s “As Nasty as They Wanna Be” album. County Court-at-Law Judge Tony Jimenez balked at defense claims Tuesday that David Risher, owner of Hogwild Records and Tapes, was singled out for prosecution. Risher’s trial is set for December. Earlier this month, Charles Freeman, a Ft. Lauderdale record store owner, was convicted of selling obscene material in connection with the sale of the rap album.
