Bouncer Bobby D'Apice was arrested for breaking someone neck at the club.
Frederick "Rick" Rizzolo the main owner was arrested and brought up on charges of Racketeering along with several other people associated with the club.

There is a papertrail of payoffs to several judges and high officials to do things like let them expand the club another 6000 feet without any building permits or additional parking.

Treasures was the Crazy Horse's biggest competitor, and coincidentally, Oscar Goodman was the criminal defense attorney for several key employees of the Crazy Horse prior to his election. Treasures was ruining the Horse's business, but that's no longer the case thanks to the alleged actions of City Director of Business Activity Jim DiFiorie who is accused of selectively prosecuting Treasures at the behest of Goodman and Moncrief. The $50 million dollar club went dark less than a year after it opened.

In the meantime, local cops and paramedics were refusing to write up incidents at the Crazy Horse, and cops often threatened to arrest those who dared file complaints.

Here is a link to a great article on the trouble they were involved in.
