NEW YORK (CBSNewYork) – Federal authorities raided a Midtown strip club today, saying it is the center of global scheme bringing women into the United States to force them to become strippers.
The operation was run by the Gambino and Bonnano crime families

http://www.nydailynews.com/news/crime/feds-york-mafia-russian-mob-joined-lure-women-strippers-article-1.984503
Prosecutors say they controlled strip clubs in Manhattan, Queens and Long Island with iron fists, shaking down protection money from the club owners and overseeing disputes about how the women were parceled out to the clubs.

You'd think the mob could have their boys at the ports smuggle the women in without the need for papers.



They need to watch Season 2 of "The Wire".

A friend of mine worked in Alaska for a while.

All the strippers were imported from Seattle.   When he chatted with them, they said they hated it up there, but would work on rotation up there for one week a month as the money was good.

I never figured strippers would have to travel to the field for their work, but in this case they did, as there wasn't enough local talent interested.

Ah yes, and we should ban guns, because guns are found at 900% of murder scenes, right?

Are you implying that all or most strippers working at clubs are doing so because they were kidnapped by the Russian mafia and sent here?

Ask a Vice cop about that subject and you will get a very different answer!Organized crime has controlled most Strip clubs,Porn industry and Whorehouses for years.The girls make the choice MOST of the time but keeping them on pills,booze,and coke keeps them working to support the habits.Everybody loves boobies but it is what it is.

For all the people who think that strippers are all human trafficking victims.

Get on a plane to Vegas on Thurs or Fri afternoon out of Burbank heading for Vegas.

Then get back on a plane heading from Vegas to Burbank on Mon morning or afternoon.

Just saying.

People will do anything for money. Strip clubs that are run legit are victimless. Just like farming is victimless.... Unless you are using slave labor and all

In and of themselves, there is nothing wrong with them.

Nice strawman though.
