Tucson Strip Clubs: 5 strip-club workers arrested on drug counts

Five people were arrested on drug charges Thursday night at a midtown strip club where two fatal shootings occurred last year.
All five were employees of The Candy Store, 1104 S. Craycroft Road, which had been the target of a six-month investigation that culminated with the arrests, officials said.
Tucson police worked with the Counter Narcotics Alliance and the Arizona Department of Liquor Licenses and Control to investigate drug dealing and underage drinking at the club, said Sgt. Fabian Pacheco, a police spokesman.
As a result, the club could lose its liquor license during a hearing before an administrative law judge on March 28, said Sgt. Wes Kuhl, an officer with Liquor Licenses and Control.
The employees, who included a bouncer, some hostesses and bartenders, are accused of selling cocaine and other drugs at the strip club, said Lt. Kelly Lane of the Counter Narcotics Alliance.

Tucson police: Five employees of strip club arrested on drug charges
Arizona Daily Star | Posted: Thursday, March 18, 2010 9:40 pm
Tucson police arrested on Thursday night five employees of the Candy Store strip club on suspicion of selling drugs.
Two other employees of the club are facing arrest on the same charges.
The arrests stem from a six-month investigation that Tucson police began following the shooting death of a man outside the club, 1104 S. Craycroft Road, in October 2009. That incident was the second homicide outside the business in three months.
Following the second fatal shooting, Tucson police and the state liquor board began an investigation into the club.
Officers working undercover made numerous drug purchases from employees at the club, police officials said Thursday night.
The state liquor board will hold a hearing later this month on whether to revoke the club’s liquor license, police officials said.

Tucson Adult Entertainment: Tiger Woods ‘deeply sorry’ for affairs

Steven Edwards, Canwest News Service  Published: Saturday, February 20, 2010
Tiger Woods took his first public swing from the deep rough yesterday, reading from a prepared statement to say he was “deeply sorry” for his behaviour, but insisted he would not give details about his infidelity.
“I was unfaithful. I had affairs. I cheated,” he said in his televised speech from a podium before a hand-picked audience of about 40 people, who included his mother in the front row, but not his wife Elin.
“I felt I was entitled … I was wrong.”
The golfer announced he was returning immediately to the therapy he began after the U.S. Thanksgiving car accident on Nov. 26 that opened the floodgates to revelations he slept with more than a dozen women, including porn stars, prostitutes, party girls and waitresses.

Tucson Escorts: A new trail for the celebrity apology

Tiger Woods’ live scripted mea culpa on Friday at 11 a.m. Eastern time, from the TPC Sawgrass clubhouse in Ponte Vedra Beach, Fla., will inevitably be compared with two forms of the modern celebrity apology: one made famous by Mark McGwire and Alex Rodriguez and the second by politicians like Eliot Spitzer and Mark Sanford.
But unless Woods surprises viewers, his brief statement (no questions, please, from the few reporters in the room) will not fall into either category.
Woods is not an officeholder who has violated the trust of those who elected him. Spitzer resigned as governor of New York after revelations about money he spent on call girls. Sanford’s affair with his Argentine “soulmate” humiliated him and led to the still-sitting South Carolina governor’s pending divorce. Although McGwire delayed apologising for five years, he spent days talking to numerous news media outlets, explaining his drug use. Trying to control his message for as long as he could, he did not face questions during a news conference, but he was criticised for saying he used steroids to benefit his health, not his performance.
