LINGERIE STORE RECIEVES SUMMONS


Located at 501-2 Burnside Ave., Playhouse Funk, a lingerie shop selling erotic accessories has been issued a court summons by the Town of Hempstead. Owner, Loreal Watson feels the items she sells are no worse than items sold at Victoria's Secret or in Spencer's Gifts. After first being approached by a Town employee she did remove items from her store's front window. Due to appear in court on February 14th, Ms. Watson will defend her store believing the items she sells are appropriate as she now displays an :over 18 only" sign in her window. The court will decide if she should be fined.
