How far is too far for vice cops patrolling Seattle strip clubs?
Hrm... maybe a career change should be in order? Vice doesn't sound so bad right now, lap dances on company money you say? This has gotta make Tax Payers happy.For an undercover cop in a strip joint, how far is too far?
One Seattle cop reported that he grabbed an exotic dancer's breasts several times as she gyrated in his lap.
Another undid his belt for the dancer grinding against him -- allowing her to slide her hand into his pants.
A third paid $100 to a stripper for four lap dances in a row as he tested whether she'd offer sex for money (she didn't).
The three Seattle cops were part of a strip-club sting operation aimed at catching dancers who cross the line. But did the officers themselves violate department rules, or the law?
The Police Department's vice unit regularly inspects the city's four strip clubs. The unit occasionally sends in officers who, posing as customers, pay for private dances to check for law violations.
But some defense attorneys and legal experts -- and a City Council member charged with police oversight -- criticize tactics that have officers initiating sexual contact, or repeatedly buying dances from the same woman in hopes of building a case for prostitution.
Oh yeah, I know, TTIWWOP So here's the only pic :(![]()
Lindsey, 24, who has worked at Rick's for six years, gets ready at her Issaquah home for another night at the strip club. She was at Rick's twice when the club was raided but was never arrested.
