Businesses sharing strip mall with strip club call raids unneccessary"

# 15 strippers arrested during lunch-time roundup

] By:Dave Bohman

Hudson, Florida - Guiseppe Waldechone made very few pizza’s during Thursday's lunch hour.

He blames the raid on Lollipop’s Lounge where strippers were taken away to jail.

It was part of a sting operation where strippers from six Pasco County adult night clubs were arrested.

Guiseppe Waldechone, Gennaro’s Pizza:
“I think it was a little bit bad for my business to see all the cops over here.”

The businesses that surround Lollipop's at a Hudson strip mall say the strippers are good neighbors.

Guiseppe Waldechone, Gennaro’s Pizza:
“We all get along together. The girls are nice, and I don’t think the girls do anything wrong over there.”

Sheila Hunt, Owns Shop Near Lollipop’s:
“It’s a shame that anyone would want our taxpayer’s dollars to go for that. I think police should have better things to do with their time than to harass young girls trying to make a living.”

Of the 15 girls arrested, six were for prostitution -- and three of those six work at Lollipop's.

Guiseppe Waldechone, Gennaro’s Pizza:
“If there were drugs, stuff like that, I would understand. I would be the first one on camera to say 'OK, bye-bye. No, you can’t do that.'”

Guiseppe Waldechone says he doesn’t approve of prostitution either.

Despite the arrests of three girls who work next to him on prostitution charges, he doesn’t think it actually goes on at Lollipop’s.

When I was a young girl I worked as a secretary and never got arrested. In fact I know lots of young girls who never got arrested on the job. Come to think of it, I've only known one person who got arrested on her job and she was embezzling. Taking one's clothes off for money is a choice. None of these women were forced into that line of work.
