Dallas club where girl, 12, stripped will keep license (NO age limit in Dallas on strippers)

Per article, she was a 12 yr old run-a-way and a 27 yr old stripper was allegedly connected to however the 12 yr old ended up at the club.

The mere fact that a 12-year-old girl danced nude at a northwest Dallas strip club isn't enough to close its doors.

That's because the city ordinance that regulates sexually oriented businesses does not allow authorities to revoke the license of such a business for employing someone under the age of 18.


The sixth-grader danced at Diamonds Cabaret over a two-week period late last year, authorities say. They also say they found a 17-year-old girl working in the club in January.

The 23-page city ordinance does allow revocation of a club's license if, for example, the club knowingly allows prostitution, the sale or use of drugs at the club, or if there are two convictions for sex-related crimes at the club within a 12-month period. The department also can suspend, but not revoke, the license of an escort agency for up to 30 days if it has employed anyone under 18.
