A Midtown jiggle joint won the right to subpoena undercover cops who busted prostitutes at the strip club for allegedly offering happy endings and unprotected sex for $1,700 a pop in 2011.
“Only nuns and priests were there?” joked Justice O. Peter Sherwood to the joint’s attorney before signing the orders in Manhattan Supreme Court yesterday.
FlashDancers on Broadway and 52nd Street want police records to prove that no sex acts actually occurred.
“The undercovers claim they had conversations with people, no money changed hands, no act took place, so it’s all based on conversation,” the joint’s attorney, Edward Rudofsky, told the Post.
The strippers are responsible for any proposed hanky pank, not the club, because it has a sterling reputation of 25 years without prior prostitution charges, the legal papers argue.
During an undercover sting in December 2010 a member of the NYPD’s Vice Squad asked an Asian girl in a white bikini “if we were going to bang raw. She said yes and giggled,” the report reads.
FlashDancers is scheduled to go before the State Liquor Authority on April 3 to answer disorderly conduct and improper supervision charges.
The club could potentially be stripped of its liquor license.
Neither the liquor authority nor the NYPD returned calls for comment.
