SC Owners and Bribes
johnnylingo
I think part of davids's issue with clubs may be due to the situations in Seattle and Vegas - two cities where the ties between SCs and crime are apparent (see http://www.seattleweekly.com/features/03… for more on Seattle).
Are things similar in your town? Are the clubs owned by people with criminal records? Do SC owners make campaign contributions or outright bribe officials? If you see police in the club, do you get the impression that they're looking the other way? Please share.

Anyway, to answer your question: one of the naughtier strippers at Rick's told me that the cops who come in explicitly looked the other way at the naughty things she does. They have a quota they need to arrest and pick the girls at random to fill that number. They don't really care what the girls are doing.
This naughty stripper also told me that the problem the cops have with Rick's doesn't have to do with what the girls do but "other problems" with the owners. They just harass the girls at Rick's to put pressure on the owners to resolve their "other problem".
I wonder how many cops visit Rick's themselves after work?
I came across some old Grand Jury Reports at the County Store. They were neato! I wish I didn't have so many books already or I would have bought them all up.
Basically corruption was rampant in the clubs and everywhere else in the olden days as it is right now. One of the purposes of law is to grant power and profits to some persons and peonage to other persons.
