How did two girls who grew up in comfortable middle-class homes with a wealth of opportunity wind up as exotic dancers and accused crooks?

trying to figure out how to pay for college? i knew a number of strippers in college that that was the only way they could pay. trying to run a full classload with homework etc takes up too much time. you can't work a full time job. so they found that they could work one night a week and make $1,000. unfortunately, once they started, most of them fell into the clutch of the lifestyle associated with it (drugs, sex, etc)
of all of them i knew, only one managed to finish college while stripping. she graduated with no loans, and a small stock portfolio.

you can't work a full time job.

Sure you can. I did. All the way to a Masters in Electrical Engineering and a Bachelors in Aeronautical Engineering. All it takes is discipline. Then again, nobody would pay me to strip, either......

"That was the only way they could pay (for college expenses)." That is NEVER true. It is selling your soul to dance at strip joints, and all the rationalizing in the world won't make it other.

One of my OB/GYN RN students got through school via stripping (But she also had a horrific homelife).

For her it was part money and part getting even. :)
