Frank Colacurcio Sr., the Seattle strip-club figure who has been in and out of prison for six decades, was sentenced to 90 days of home detention yesterday, this time for groping a waitress at Rick's strip club in Lake City.At least he didn't vote in November. He's probably the only convicted felon in King County who didn't. Posted by Stefan Sharkansky at March 09, 2005 10:16 PM | Email ThisThe 87-year-old Colacurcio, whose first conviction for a sex-related offense dates to 1943, also was banned from Rick's for two years, a condition his attorney called "draconian" because the club is "very much a part of his life."
You realize his son, Frank Jr. owns Ricks, Sugars, Fox's (in Tacoma) and a bunch of others, right?
Posted by: CR Activist (reformed) on March 9, 2005 11:08 PMIf you were to ask me, I would go, "hmmm, I am a Democrat, so if I said Rossi, it would help our cause, so I will say Rossi, but if I said Gregoire, it would hurt the cause, so again, I say Rossi".
Which side of the mouth would you believe, name? In my case, neither.
Posted by: swatter on March 10, 2005 07:46 AM1. They all voted for Rossi.
2. When arrested they were all quoted as saying "I didn't do it".
Even BIAW is fraudulently portraying itself of late - criminality and the Republican Party go hand-in-hand.
Posted by: name on March 10, 2005 08:13 AMTry a little test...the next 10 reports of political corruption or criminality you see, look to see if the headline mentions party. If it does, it will say Repub...it it doesn't, you can be sure it's Dem.
Most of the headlines, BTW, won't mention party.

Posted by: headless lucy on March 10, 2005 08:32 AMJust last year his people were found to have violated no laws in transfering 'bags of cash' to those members of the cabal that sit on the Seattle City Council. DEMOCRATS
Last year the Washington Stat Patrol could not uncover any illegalities when 'investigating' (covering up for) those involved in the Brame situation. DEMOCRATS
Do we see a pattern here yet? If not let me spell it out for you. MACHINE POLITICS rules the day in not only this State but Pierce, King & Snohomish Counties and Tacoma & Seattle as well. The same CORRUPT cabal controls everything in these Counties and municipalities and for as long as I can remember Olympia has drawn their leadership from this cesspool of human depravity.
It has been apparent to anyone who has cared to look that something has not been right in Tacoma for a long time, it was common knowledge that Brame and his entire entourage was in fact ‘filth’ of the lowest order, for City officials and the News Buffoon to deny that they knew exactly what he was is ludicrous. The same applies to the ‘Frugal Gourmet,’ connected people in Tacoma knew full well what the score was long before it broke on the National scene.
This State’s leadership is CORRUPT to the core and by design, although the faces change they have up till this point been ‘cut from the same bolt of cloth.’ The Republican Party has an opportunity in ‘06, given the election mess this year (DEMOCRATS once again) and the CAO to relive what happened on a National scale in the ’94 Republican House take over here in Washington. For the first time ever there is a chance to substantially change the entire leadership of this State. I hope the National Party leadership is aware of that.
When she refused, Luttrell testified, Colacurcio pinched her left breast through her clothing, then pinched her right breast."
Not that I've ever been to a strip club, LOL!, but doessn't this go on all the time? Didn't Arnold the Terminator get elected governor because he did this sort of stuff?
"He told our officers that he just got mad at her, so he went after her," said police spokesman Joe Durkin.
Nathan Alan Winkler (search), 31, was freed on $2,000 bail early Wednesday on a charge of aggravated stalking (search), which carries up to five years in prison.
My first thought on reading this post was "finally, something that won't be automatically blamed on Democrats."
Wrong again. Some of the people here can find a way to blame the Democrats for anything. If the moon were to come out of its orbit and strike the Earth, the last thing through some people's minds would be how the Democrats were somehow to blame.
Of course, the reason we're even discussing the fact that a dirty old man got banned from a sex club somehow escapes me, other than his lawyer seems to be an idiot.
Not for losing the case, but for opening his mouth afterwards. The conditions are "draconian" because the club is "very much a part of his life"? Someone needs to teach the old guy how to play checkers.

A very funny line. Bravo!
Posted by: barchester on March 10, 2005 03:40 PMI suspect Dan Evans, John Spellman and Slade Gorton, among others, would be surprised to learn that they were part of the "Seattle/Tacoma DEMOCRAT Political machine" and "the absolute filth that has run this State since the 60’s." Every day I learn something new from the folks at this blog.
Posted by: Steve on March 10, 2005 04:11 PMWhat is more I will go on record as saying that I beleive Pierce County's attempted smoking ban was influenced by tribal money finding it's way...if you have lived here as long as I have, you know the rest of the story.
I will also go so far as to say: EVERY ONE in Tacoma/Pierce County in a position to know about Brame either DID KNOW or didn't want to know. It was that transparent.
I could go on for days, need I. Politics in this region is under control of a Political Machine that has put utterly corrupt and incompetent political appointments in place in damn near every Agency and cost taxpaying residents untold dollars.
They are scared to death that Dino, once in office, will clean house and the light of truth will shine brightly on much more that is being covered up within the beaurocracy. He will, and all I have to say is it is about time.
That, my friends, is why the Democrats are terrified and pulling out all stops to prevent that.
Posted by: JDH on March 10, 2005 07:51 PMCOLACURCIO JANUARTY L 344e 36TH AVE W SEATTLE Abs Y - 2004
COLACURCIO JANUARY LEE 344e 36TH AVE W SEATTLE - - - 1994
Just shows how screwed up King County Elections is. "January Lee Colacurcio" (sounds funny, but I will assume that is her real name) registers to vote in 1994. Fine enough.
In 2004, she fills out an absentee ballot application -- which is actually a voter registration form (all voters have to fill out this form, even to change your address). Instead of changing the ballot status of the existing voter registered in 1994, KC Elections registers her again in 2004 as a "new" voter -- but under the misspelled name of "Januarty L Colacurcio".
Thanks to KC Elections, Ms. Colacurcio is now registered twice at the same address in King County. Fortunately, she only voted once in November. But she could have easily gone to the polls, and cast another ballot under her correctly spelled name after mailing in her absentee ballot.
