I go to this club quite often. That's where my Indiana girl was from. I always felt safe there. Now I'm not sure.

^^^^^ good place for Front Room Makeout Sessions, rather than just buying dances I would assume?

This might have newer news:

That kind of shooting could happen anywhere. I suppose security cameras would help, but in strip clubs people would probably not like that.

Still have not named the suspect. Overall, sounds pretty lame to me.

Right across the street from a high school. Don't think you could do that here, zoning and permitting rules.

But then, that looseness about opening more clubs will be why Indiana, Ohio, and Kentucky are more conducive to front room makeout sessions.

Word on the street says the guy was upset because a girl wouldn't leave the club with him

That came from one of the dancers there

Well of course that is not said in the news accounts. Sounds like a guy who just lost it. Made worse because of his gun.

I hope that club keeps going. Smart girl who refused to leave with him.

Please let us know if you hear more, and about how that club fairs.

Interesting to find out where the man was standing when he fired, and where the bullets went.

Sounds like he had no real agenda of hitting anyone. Good. It could have been worse.

Do they search people for weapons before they get in?

At our local above ground clubs, they ask if it looks like someone has something like a weapon.

At the Mexican Bars with the the table dancing shows, they do a pat down seach, and they usuallyl have an armed uniformed security guard too.

That does not sound good to me. Would not work here.

Back rooms, private space with dancers? Okay for dancers to leave mid shift?

Did the suspect have prior relations with any of the women?

Yes, I see on the map that it is a real small town, and also at a three state junction. These often become Vice Zones, for taking money off of people from out of state, the argument seems to go.

Newer news, suspect owns barber shop, out on $2 million bond. Trial set for Jan 13, 2020, with two pre-trial conferences set.

See if he has a private attorney or a public defender, see if anymore info comes out. There are potentially things he could claim which might help him beat this. No one was hurt after all. So his intent could be in dispute.

Don't seem to have any more current news.

Dearborn County Indiana

Francisca Vazquez, 31, was charged with armed robbery, kidnapping while armed and intimidation, according to court records. He is currently being held on a warrant.

Court Services
www.dearborncounty.org

Not easy to find anything on court web site.

But news paper said:

"

Employees of the club had noticed Vazquez earlier in the day, LaGory said. The club opened at 1 p.m., and the women working saw that Vazquez returned to the club around 4 p.m. and opened fire.

Prosecutor Lynn Deddens wrote in a Facebook post that Vazquez had held multiple people at gunpoint during the attack and robbed three victims. Those victims have not yet been identified.

“We would like to talk to these men because we believe they were robbed by Vazquez," stated Prosecuting Attorney Lynn Deddens. “We have photographs of the individuals in hopes of identifying them. If you know who these men are, please reach out to Det. Jeremy Shepherd of Lawrenceburg Police Department at 812-537-2284.”

Vazquez is set for an initial hearing on Monday, Aug. 19.

"

So sounds like LE is having a hard time identifying club patrons, who though likely robbed at gun poing, have not come forward.

court site:
www.dearborncounty.org

I look for news via suspect name. Some news identifies suspect as female.

But here:
www.eaglecountryonline.com

Francisco Vazquez enters not guilty plea.

Yes, has picture:
www.eaglecountryonline.com

"Francisco Vazquez, 31, was in Dearborn Superior Court I to plead not guilty to a list of charges including Robbery with a Robbery with a Deadly Weapon (level 3 felony), Attempted Kidnapping (level 3 felony), Criminal Confinement with a Deadly Weapon (level 3 felony), Intimidation (level 5 felony), Pointing a Firearm (level 6 felony), and Resisting Law Enforcement (level 6 felony). "

In my county 39 out of 40 felony cases end in plead deals.

This seems to be why they are usually over charging them.

This Lawrenceburg case, to me, looks over charged. They want the guy to plead guilty.

But the criminal law is all about intent. He shouldn't have done what he did, but not really sure what his intent was.

And also, when things happen in strip clubs, often hard to get credible witnesses.

So we will see.

Avatar for san_jose_guy

Well yes. Someone died in the San Jose Pink Poodle a number of years back,, punched by a bouncer.

The bouncer might have been excessive, but the deceased probably was causing a problem.

Our DA's office charged it as murder 1.

The bouncer was part of the Hell's Angel's Motorcycle Club. And the DA has always wanted the Pink Poodle gone.

They made it like the Poodle owner was angry because the deceased ruffled the feathers of a dancer at a nearby bar.

So for that, he is going to have the guy executed, and at the Pink Poodle? That family has run the Poodle for decades, and they also run a bachelor party service. They are provoked by a drunk who gets a little out of line with one of their dancers?

The bouncer was acquitted, and I excoriated the news paper for their source journalism, just printing what LE told them, when they knew it made no sense.

The news paper finally was making fun of the DA, and commenting that it is hard to get good witnesses from a strip club.

With this Indiana case, what they have against the suspect might not be as strong as it looks. I still find his intentions to be unclear. And no one was hurt.

Disturbing the Peace is the lowest misdemeanor. I hope firing a gun is not that little.

But as it is charged now it is multiple high level felonies.

Avatar for san_jose_guy
san_jose_guy

If there is actually a trial, then the DA has to prove intent, and so this story about the girl who would not leave with him would have to come out. They have to show that they understand the whole story.

For a plea bargain no, that would never come out.

No new news. Maybe someone knows how to check online court records, or could even walk into the court house. Maybe someone knows how to see if he has a private attorney or a public defender.

Suspect has his barber shop, but says he lives in Cincinnati.

Still looking for newer info and to see who is representing him.

Not finding any more info or news.

Wilson and Deddens, seem to be prosecutors, one state, one county.

Bartlett seems then to be representing Vazquez.

Maybe this Justin W. Bartlett, practices in OH and IN
bartlettlaw.com

If that small county does not have a Public Defender's Office, then they probably use and Indepedent Defense Council, which could have appointed Justin W. Bartlett.

His father was also an attorney.

So this is the first time I have learned the name of the probable defense attorney. Can't find court calendar. They should have had court appearance. Overall this does not look good for defendant.

As defendant seems to be transgender, idea he had some kind of prior relationship with a dancer makes this more interesting, but it does not get him out of it. But usually in strip clubs it is hard for DA to come up with reliable witnesses. They do though have video.

2 million bond for Cincinnati suspect in Lawrenceburg shooting

MADELINE MITCHELL | CINCINNATI ENQUIRER

Updated 2:07 p.m. EDT Aug. 20, 2019

A Cincinnati business owner is being held on a $2 million bond in connection to the Aug. 14 Lawrenceburg, Indiana, shooting, according to court records.

Francisca Vazquez, 31, was arrested on armed robbery and kidnapping chargesafter shots were fired inside of Concepts Gentlemen's Club in Dearborn County last week.

No one was injured in the shooting, police said. There were a total of 10 people inside the club at the time of the attack.

Vazquez lives in Cincinnati and is the owner of Springdale's Vazquez Barbershop and Salon.

The $2 million bond was determined at Monday's initial hearing. Vazquez will be seen at a jury trial on Jan. 13, 2020. Two pretrial conferences have been set for September and December.

(He goes to trial in January. This was the last report August 20th.)

I guess I have to play the devil's advocate here.

We have lawyers on this board, but I am not sure if we have criminal defense lawyers. Please jump in if you are such.

Here, picture of suspect aiming pistol at counter door man, seemingly a high trajectory shot at his head, target in shadows, shooter in light.

Is that very smart?

If it is true that this had to do with a dancer he wanted to leave with him, it looks more like the whole thing is a temper tantrum, to impress the girl.

Probably it is a girl he has know for some time and he wants her to retire.

Here, the charges:

Charges:
35-42-5-1(a)(1)/F3: Armed Robbery-Taking property by force or threatening use of force while armed, 35-42-3-2(a)/F3: Kidnapping while armed with a deadly weapon, 35-42-3-3(a)/F3: Criminal Confinement while armed with a deadly weapon, 35-45-2-1(a)(1)/F5: Intimidation-Same as 7261, but where def. draws or uses a deadly weapon., 35-47-4-3(b)/F6: Pointing a Firearm at Another, 35-44.1-3-1(a)(1)/F6: Resisting Law Enforcement-Same as 3927 but the def. draws or uses a deadly wea

Okay, but they over charge this stuff. The only cases where the cannot deal on is homicide. But this is not a homicide, no one died, no one was hurt.

They say he resisted the police. Well if police find someone brandishing a weapon, they will order him to drop it and get down on his knees. It could be even worse.

But no mention of police using any weapons or any force. So his resistance was probably just being a smart ass.

And witnesses are not coming forward! So police probably cannot testify to much.

So they probably have the girl and the door counter man. But this does not mean that they are going to be cooperative witnesses. And how hard do they want to be on crime victims?

So this will be settled by a plea agreement.

I was in court for a case where a guy had fired a bullet into the ceiling of a major department store. And the attorney told me that this suburb was fascist. Steal something you are done for.

But gun stupidity? He got two weekends of community service, and he got his gun back.

This guy could get off very easy.

And his record, based on his crime, he is not smart enough to have a record.

Hard to prosecute crimes which have occurred in a strip club, no witnesses.

SJG

Avatar for san_jose_guy
san_jose_guy

No witnesses who want to cooperate? A witness could corroborate the DA's thesis and what it should on the cameras, that they were robbed at gun point. But without the witnesses, it could be treated more lightly.

And the police did not see much, or they would have deployed weapons.

So how much of a case is there?

I believe that it will be settled by a plea agreement.

Armed Robbery Initially Reported As Active Shooter Situation In Lawrenceburg

www.eaglecountryonline.com

Francisca Vazquez, also known as Francisco Vazquez, was charged in August with Robbery with a Deadly Weapon (level 3 felony), Attempted Kidnapping (level 3 felony), Criminal Confinement with a Deadly Weapon (level 3 felony), Intimidation (level 5 felony), Pointing a Firearm (level 6 felony), and Resisting Law Enforcement (level 6 felony).

According to Dearborn-Ohio County Prosecutor Lynn Deddens, Vazquez brandished a gun inside the strip club and fired multiple shots on August 14. Vazquez allegedly held multiple people at gunpoint during the robbery.

She fled the scene but was captured a short time later.

Vazquez is set for a jury trial in Dearborn County Court on January 13.

That is a good question. Really the issue is, will he be incarcerated as a man or a woman. I think probably as a woman.

Still have yet to hear which charges he had to plead too. The prosecution evidence, given what they would likely be able to get in a strip club, would not support most of those charges. Hard to get witnesses in a strip club.
