Clooney, DeNiro and Pesci quizzed in Vegas club investigation
Edited on Wed Jan-04-06 12:18 PM by NVMojo
hmmmm ... not sure what to believe ...but then there are alot of corrupt Democrats associated with the Las Vegas scandal and Clooney did spank the Party last month around this same time.

Dec 20, 2005

LAS VEGAS, Federal agents in Las Vegas reportedly questioned George Clooney, Robert De Niro and Joe Pesci in a racketeering investigation of a strip club.

Crazy Horse Too owner Rick Rizzolo has been under investigation, and his attorney Tony Sgro told the New York Daily News the agents have been trying to make his client's celebrity friends "nervous in order to cause those friendships to end."

"To suggest that any of those friends know anything with regard to the Crazy Horse is absurd," Sgro said.

They were actually in Rizzolo's club at one time or another - working.

Rizzolo made Clooney's acquaintance while the actor was shooting Ocean's 11, which featured a scene at the Crazy Horse.

De Niro visited the club while he was shooting Casino, but one pal says, "He wouldn't know Rizzolo from Adam."

I sorta kinda recall being in that club on a trip to Vegas myself. I guess if I were influential they would try to lean on me, too. :eyes:
