Six people face multiple charges after a two-month-long investigation of an adult entertainment club in Edwardsburg.
Cass County Police, along with State Police and the FBI, searched Escape Reality on Daily Road around 9:00 Wednesday night.
Police say they had received complaints of prostitution and drug dealing at the club.
Among the six arrests were five dancers who face charges for lewd conduct, prostitution, delivery of cocaine and delivery of ecstasy.
Additionally, there are allegations of sex crimes occurring at the corporate level. The manager of Escape Reality was among those arrested.
Cass County's Prosecutor Victor Fitz revealed Thursday that in all nine undercover visits over a two month period, police discovered illegal acts taking place.
"There were five dancers that were arrested last evening, and each of them had been employed by Escape Reality," Fitz explained. "The charges ranged for the various individuals from delivery of cocaine, delivery of ecstasy, aiding and abetting and the maintaining of a house of prostitution. Also, charges of prostitution and lewd and lascivious behavior."
The names of those arrested were released Thursday after their arraignments:
Brent Hanson (Manager) - 48, Elkhart
Lauren Coombs - 19, St. Joseph, MI
Erin Dickerson - 23, Sturgis
Melissa Goodman - 24, Elkhart
Vicki McClain - 18, Bristol
Katie McCreary - 22, Mishawaka
Bond is set at $20,000 for the dancers. For the manager, it is $40,000.
