Dancer sues Shenanigans Gentlemen’s Club, claiming she was drugged and sexually abused

A former exotic dancer at Shenanigans Gentlemen’s Club claims she was drugged and forced to have sex with customers during the 11 months she worked at the club.

Everything is detailed in an 8-page lawsuit just filed.

The dancer began working at Shenanigans in April 2023.

The lawsuit says she was forced to sell at least $500 worth of cocaine to customers from the start.

Eventually, customers were drugged with chloroform in order to steal their money.

The dancer claims that everything took place under the direction of Robert Savova and Luiggi Canessa; the owner and manager of Shenanigans.

Canessa was arrested back in April after the FBI investigated the club on allegations of drug trafficking, sex trafficking and wire fraud.

After three months at the club, the dancer claimed she had lost all control over her decision-making after being forced to take drugs herself and allegedly directing customers into sexual activity.

The lawsuit states that the dancer was then forced to move into Canessa’s home while he continued to assign clients to her.

The lawsuit alleges that the dancer was even sexually abused by Canessa. A pregnancy occurred, which later ended in a miscarriage.

13 investigators contacted the attorney representing Shenanigans and its owners. No answer so far.
