Striptease robbers get prison time

Associated Press

PORTLAND – A Portland woman, her boyfriend and a teenage nephew are all headed to prison after staging a robbery during a striptease.

The victim, Brian Lee Horst, reported the robbery to police after 25-year-old Antawan Simpkins and 16-year-old Anthony Roach burst into the apartment of 23-year-old Alicia Marie Roach at gunpoint just as she began the striptease.

The three believed Horst would never report the robbery out of embarrassment or fear he’d be charged with soliciting a prostitute.
