On Friday night twenty five individual people were arrested for drug violations, afterlaw enforcement personnel from several agencies (state & local) executed three search warrants at Winston-Salem strip clubs.

According to law enforcement, the North Carolina Alcohol Law Enforcement Branch joined forces with the WSPD, Forsyth County Sheriff’s Office, and Kernersville Police Department to conduct an investigation aimed at cutting into illegal drug sales in ABC licensed outlets in Forsyth County. The investigation was initiated after citizen and local law enforcement complaints were received regarding illegal drug activity occurring at strip clubs and othe rnight spots around Forsyth County.

The searches were conducted at the following three locations and resulted in seizures of heroin, powder cocaine, crack cocaine, opium, prescription pills and pot.

 

Club Risque on University Parkway, Paper Moon Gentlemen’s Club on Salisbury Ridge Road, and Filly’s Gentlemen’s Club on Peters Creek Parkway were raided and their staff and patrons arrested on a variety of controlled substance charges.

This investigation was conducted as part of ALE’s Community Betterment Initiative which identifies communities in North Carolina where the quality of life for the citizens is disrupted by drugs, gangs, and violence in their neighborhoods.

As a result of the investigation arrest warrants were issued for 25 employees totaling 122 criminal charges. A 30 day suspension of the ABC permits were issued by the North Carolina Alcoholic Beverage Control Commission for Club Risque, Paper Moon Gentlemen’s Club and Filly’s Gentlemen’s Club.

Reports of the alleged violations will be submitted to the ABC Commission by ALE for further action against the ABC permits.

ALE Special Agent in Charge Mike Yates said “This coordinated effort should serve notice to ABC licensed establishments that illegal drugs sales will not be tolerated.”
The investigation is ongoing and additional charges are anticipated.
