Strip Club Waitress Accused Of Mailing Explosives

[edbermac]

BOSTON --A former strip club waitress mailed condoms filled with a potentially explosive mixture to a television station, strip clubs and other places, saying she was tired of being mistreated by men, according to court documents. In FBI documents unsealed Tuesday in U.S. District Court in Boston, Kimberly Lynn Dasilva, 40, of Hull, said she "couldn't take it anymore."

None of the condoms exploded. They each contained a mixture of drain-cleaning detergent and gasoline, which could explode when combined, authorities said. Dasilva told investigators she did not think they would explode.

On Sept. 21, a suspicious package arrived at the Bridgewater State College admissions office, according to two FBI affidavits. When it was discovered that fluid had leaked from the package, the building was evacuated and the State Police Bomb Squad was called in. A note inside the package said "Boom."

Five more packages containing condoms filled with Drano and gasoline were found the next day at the Brockton postal annex, according to the FBI affidavits. They were addressed to Boston television station WFXT, Boston radio station WXKS-FM, the Outlaws motorcycle club in Taunton, and two strip clubs -- Alex's in Stoughton and The Foxy Lady in Brockton.

Dasilva, a single mother of two teenagers who used to work at Alex's and The Foxy Lady, was arrested Friday night after FBI agents and state police troopers raided her home and found letters hidden in the ceiling tiles of her bedroom that allegedly linked her to the mailings.

[Deja Q]

1. Well, in a job that attracts the unsavory sort, what should she expect?

I've to accept my limitations at my job. So should she.


If she can't take it anymore, LEAVE. You don't go about blowing up other people. :dunce:

2. If I knew what people have done to her

I probably wouldn't care what she mailed.

3. Why didn't she go to management and get a bouncer hired?

If nasty people are trying to molest her and the place is properly staffed, she need do little to get the creeps thrown out.

5. Maybe

the owner and bouncer were forcing her to have sex with them in exchange for keeping her job? Who knows.

4. This sounds a bit odd to me

After all, gasoline will eat through latex pretty damn fast, much sooner than a normal package takes to get through the postal system, and thus would blow up at the postal facility, nor her intended target.

I don't know, something about this just seems off:shrug:
