The Rise, and Fall, and Rise, of Frank C.
It's one thing to live to 92, which, as of his birthday last month, Frank Colacurcio Sr. has done. It's quite another thing, especially when charged with lowdown federal crimes, to remain upstanding in the community, and it seems he has done that, too. "Colacurcio Sr. regularly engages in sex acts with the dancers from the strip clubs," notes his latest indictment, "and allowed dancers who engaged in prostitution at the strip clubs to remain working at the clubs, sometimes in exchange for committing sex acts with him." 
The secret to Colacurcio's legendary libido and staying power seems to be practice, practice, practice. His run-ins with females and the law start with, at age 25, a carnal-knowledge conviction of a girl, 16, and range to a probation violation at age 80 for grabbing, kissing, and propositioning a teenager he was interviewing for a topless job. By age 86, about the time Strippergate was unfolding, he got six months probation for grabbing a waitress's breast and offering her money for sex. In court filings last year, leading up to the grand jury indictment this week, the feds quote dancers saying Frank is "always trying to get me to his house" and that "he gets laid every night."
His further nonagenarian adventures are laid out in the newest court docs, which include conversations from bugs and taps: One day last year, Colacurcio was hearing a dancer's complaint that sex was getting in and out of hand at Rick's, his family's Lake City club. Furthermore, she said, "I think a couple girls are bad...they do the real dirty stuff..." Frank interrupted her: "Where are they?" he asked. "I need one!" Of course, he was only 91 then. Who knows if he could pull it off today.

I know the guy got rich on topless dancing, but if he could just bottle this other thing...

This is nothing but political BS. The political News Spinners try to portray this as a moral issue. No one is forced to work at Ricks. No One is forced to patronize Ricks. They do so of their OWN FREE WILL. I'd love to be the fly on the wall during the "Backroom political meetings" regarding this topic. Why are they so determined to put this family out of business and behind bars. “Frank, who did you piss off, who you have pictures of?”
City, State, and Federal authorities should be investigating validity of expensive BS Government financed "Studies", and illegal activities of government employee (both hired and elected). I’d love to know how much of my City, State, and Federal tax dollars have been spent so far on this government vendetta. Does the end, justify the means?
Mr Colacurcio, go out and hire a good PR firm I am sure that they will be able to show the good things you do for our community, and help to illuminate the dastardly deeds committed by our public officials.

My God, the man is 8 years away from being 100 years old!! If he is the biggest "alleged" form of organized crime that Seattle has then the feds must really be bored to be going after a man who runs a bunch of topless bars! No drug trafficking, no murder charges, no extortion, nothing! What a waste of time and taxpayer money!

I'm not pro strip club but these girls know what they are getting into and they are adults. If they want they can work somewhere else and customers can frequent another establishment. Let the natural order take care of itself.

The dancers, strippers and prostitutes can ply their trade all they want; I don't care.
But the teenage stuff is where I draw the line.

This guy isn't a hero, granted that strippers know what the line of work is before they start work, but most clubs have rules against appropriate behavior like no touching policies.
Either way no one, regardless of the job, should be forced to let someone (even their employer) grope them.
