New York Strip Clubs: Diplomat traded US visas for exotic dancers
Agawa’s gifts to O’Keefe included several rings and a $3,000 necklace made of gold, diamonds, rubies, and tanzanite. He also booked a $5,400 trip for his married friend to Las Vegas with strippers from Toronto’s Brass Rail Tavern, where O’Keefe was a regular.
O’Keefe told the judge he was depressed at the time of the crimes and added, “I knew these were inappropriate gifts and I never should have accepted them. To this day, I don’t know why.”
In return for the favours, O’Keefe granted fast-track US visas indiscriminately to Agawa’s Indian employees.
O’Keefe was sentenced to a year in prison and must return the four rings and necklace he received. He has been given a $5,000 fine to compensate for trips to New York and Las Vegas where he was accompanied by dancers and strippers.
