Desperados Raided by Federal Agents?

I just heard through the grapevine that Desperados in Lafayette was raided during the lunch hour by Federal Agents along with members of the Lafayette Sheriff's Office.

Anybody heard anything about this yet?
Seriously! The fed's are actually devoting resources to raiding a strip joint? What a waste of time and money.

If the Feds are involved it quite possibly could be for drugs, money laundering etc.

Yea. It was the DEA. Don't think it was for anything sex related.

I happen to pass by during the activity and there were 14 obvious police cars plus some that were probably not obvious. Channel 3 was in the grassy knoll to the north getting video.
Just drove by it on I-49. It is already open again..

The raid time was 1 in the afternoon. That's a strange time for a raid IMO.
Perhaps they had what they needed already and didn't want customers there.
I have a friend that told me it was for drugs,sex, an money laundering

Anything else will just insure you get convicted. The time to try to plead down and get off is later.

I'm sure they were threatening to pin what they found on the floor on him if he didn't Co operate. He probably agreed to that as a lesser charge and misdemeanor
