I'm pretty sure that the guy who was arrested just used Gloria's as a bar to deal drugs. I don't think that he was an employee, he just used the place. The two women have both worked there for a while.
A three month investigation and 30 police officers nets three arrests for small-time drug dealing and prostitution.Wow.This isn't exactly a career case is it ? What an absolute waste of resources.Privately,I hope the agencies involved in this are embarrassed.
30 cops have to raid a club to make 3 arrests? What a great use of resources! And the paper publishes the addresses of those charged with drugs and prostitution. That's unnecessarily nasty.
It's a dive bar. 3 or 4 cops couldn't go into the place, arrest 3 people, close it, and tell everyone to leave safely. They got that many cops for their safety.
Moore (Bam) didn't work there. He just always went to deal to the girls and some customers. The girls had whats coming to them. Ariel and Samantha Rose won't change their ways.
I was there once when "Ariel" was working. With makeup and the way she put her hair up, she looked pretty good. I never saw the other one "Samantha Rose" on duty.
The 83-year-old owner of the North Huntingdon strip club Gloria's is fighting to keep her business open.
There were a few smirks and a couple of eye rolls in court Monday as the district attorney tried to close down a strip club that has been in business for the last 30 years.
The civil case will determine if Gloria's is a nuisance bar or not.
Gloria Brugnoli might not be the person you would expect to see running a strip club, but the 83-year-old started Gloria's Cantina in the 1970s and is trying to keep it open after allegations of prostitution and drugs.
Channel 11 first met Brugnoli about a year and a half ago after a shooting at her cantina.
Her lounge is once again in the news after undercover officers told the judge Monday they bought drugs at the bar and saw female dancers offering sex acts for extra money. Brugnoli said she didn't know that was going on under her watch.
"I'm sure I'm not guilty. That's all I have to say. I know I'm not guilty because I don't believe in smoking cigarettes let alone that funny stuff," said Brugnoli.
According to Brugnoli's attorney, she did not hire the dancers. They volunteered their time and got to keep the tips.
The judge has not yet made a ruling.
The cantina remains padlocked by the sheriff's office.

Pretty rough looking chicks for 30 and 34 y/o. Hope there was something better that that working there.
Yes, there are some prettier girls working there, or at least there were. We'll see what happens when the real trial happens.
