Dockside Dolls was a chain of strip clubs located in industrial zones.[1] It was based in Aberdeen, North Carolina.[2] Winston Hines, Jerry Golding, and Jerry Reid co-owned it.[3] Johnny Basinger was the director of operations.[2]
Clayton, North Carolina
The Clayton, North Carolina Crazy Horse was once the location of a Dockside Dolls.[4] In 1999, a man confronted by the club's security guards shot and killed another customer.[4]
Columbus, Ohio
The Dockside Dolls in Columbus, Ohio opened in August 2001.[5] On January 19, 2002, two men were shot, one fatally, outside the club after the perpetrator's brother sustained an injury during a fist fight.[6] In 2003, police arrested 10 people on drug and prostitution charges during a raid.[7] The club closed down on August 11, 2008.[7]
Graham, North Carolina
The Graham, North Carolina Dockside Dolls opened in 1993.[8] In 1994, six police officers, who moonlighted as security guards at the club, were suspended for three days after photos of them posing with topless dancers emerged.[9] On January 2, 2004, 45-year-old bouncer David Norman Collins was fatally shot outside the club after, according to witnesses, escorting the suspects in his murder out of the club over an altercation.[10] Due to crimes, such as assaults, brawls, drug overdoses, and underage drinking, allegedly occurring at the club since 1996, a year-long investigation was conducted, resulting in a civil nuisance suit and raid on September 3, 2004.[11] The investigation also led to the arrests of four dancers for offering undercover cops sex and drugs in exchange for money during a bachelor party at a nearby motel on August 31, 2004.[11] A court motion filed on January 27, 2005 alleged that dancers had continued to solicit prostitution during visits from undercover cops, violating a restraining order that prohibited the club from allowing criminal activity.[12] In February 2006, the club was permanently closed in exchange for avoiding trial.[13]
Southern Pines, North Carolina
The first club in the Dockside Dolls chain opened in Southern Pines, North Carolina in 1990.[14]
