  Wonder who the complainers were. From one of the sentences, "the alleged prostitution that had been taking place at the club can cause both an emotional and financial drain on families," it looks like it might be a wife or such. Meanwhile gambling goes on...

  Hmmm..... the state police! Not the city vice or the county guys. Well, Harrisburg did recently declare bankruptcy ... so the state fuzz must be on a fundraising endeavor.

  "State Police Sgt. William La Torre said the alleged prostitution that had been taking place at the club can cause both an emotional and financial drain on families." What about the financial drain on the dancers' families if they can't earn any money? Hoes have families too.

  There has been a lot of crack down on clubs/AMP's in the Delaware Valley the last couple weeks. Not uncommon right before an election. Hope things calm down after next week. They are messing with my favorite spots.

  It wasn't the 8 Mile Penthouse, but the owner of 8 Mile Penthouse was a managing partner of the one in Philadelphia, at least when it opened. [view link]

  our nanny government needs to stop interfering with the actions of two consenting adults. Then the governmnet would have more resources to go after the pervert child abusers.

  Video Report of the bust here: [view link] I was just there on Thursday night. I missed the raid by one night. I didn't see my ATF getting arrested in the video. Reporter says they might be losing their liquor license. I don't think the club will survive without that.

  @Motorhead, the guy that was busted was the "timekeeper" he is the poor schlub that stands at the podium signing girls in and out. Talk about bad place, bad time. @shadowcat, you're right, it is a bad time in the Philly area. Even the clubs across the river in Jersey are clamping down. One of my favorite places just made all of the girls just sign an agreement that more or less indicated that if you cross the line, you're gone. This wasn't even a really bad place. The other clubs that provide shall we say a more complete service are really concerned. Gonna be a bad Christmas for a lot of strippers and their families. Cash flow is gonna be down as guys will avoid going to avoid the risk of being caught in a raid.
