“A local Poughkeepsie woman was cleared of all charges in an alleged Club worker slashing case. Toyia Dancy of Gray Street was found Not Guilty of all charges by an Ulster County jury in Kingston. She had been charged in a 3-count indictment with 2-counts of attempted assault 1sr degree and 1-count of assault 2nd stemming from an incident that took place June 12, 2010 at Truman’s Night Club on Terwilliger Lane in the Town of New Paltz.
