The Plumber Defense
What should you do when the police bust your illegal strip club for which you hold no permits? Why use the classic plumber defense:
Of course, it looks a little suspicious that the club owner hired dozens of plumbers to work at 1 in the morning, but hey, it's a tough economy and people are looking for work.
But that wasn't even the best line of the article. This was:
Loud music could be heard coming from the club Sunday shortly before 1 a.m. When police went inside they found a disco ball and night club lighting were on…
The owner of the club, Lawrence Ferrante, was not there but a man by the name of Adam Goodwin was and said he was in charge. After talking with a lawyer, Goodwin told police that the men at the club were plumbers working on emergency repairs and that the women were just bringing them coffee.
Police said they were unable to identify any licensed plumbers or any evidence of repair work being done.

A woman at the club, Lacreshia Edgerly, 27, was arrested on an outstanding warrant on charges of negotiating a worthless instrument.
