James O’Keefe, who posed as a pimp with Hannah Giles in videos they shot in Acorn offices, is scheduled to appear Monday (Feb. 1) at the Commonwealth Club in San Francisco to discuss undercover journalism in a conversation with Josh Wolf.

There’s only one problem. O’Keefe and three others were arrested Monday for trying to tap the phones of Senator Mary Landrieu, D-Louisiana. (Link to AP story.)

O’Keefe is out on bond, but there’s no word about whether he can leave Louisiana to participate in Monday’s Commonwealth Club talk with Wolf.

Here’s a bit of the club’s description of the talk on Monday:

“Join our discussion with O’Keefe and Wolf as
they talk about the future of journalism and the benefits (and
pitfalls) of undercover reporting. Is independent, undercover
journalism an emerging trend, or will it continue to be the exception
to the rule?”
