TV peak | Peppers on Wall Street | OPINION

This owl commented a few months ago the terrible case of some ‘peppers’ who contacted a young engineer in the ‘street of the pizzas’, in Miraflores, went to his apartment, drank liquor and killed him by an overdose of pills. Many cases have been seen. They in bars lavish false cares to unsuspecting parishioners and then introduce overly sleepy to drug them, sleep them and take them to take money, cell phones and credit cards, thus becoming dangerous characters of the night.
This brought to my memory the story of a group of these criminals in New York. The story was published in a United States magazine and became a journalistic boom, to the point that was bought by Hollywood and filmed a film in 2019 starring Jennifer Lopez: ‘Wall Street scammers’. For this columnist there are more stories about the plot of this film.
The ‘officer’ is the one that gives life to the film by Lorene Scafaria. This aguerrida director was based on a report by the journalist Jessica Pressler, who published in The New York Magazine the report ‘The Hustlers at Scores’ (which plays with the meaning of ‘Scores’, as sexual conquests of these ‘Lolitas’, and by the name of the premises, ‘Scores’). From there, nothing would be the same for libidinous and millionaire, executives, bag corridors and bankers of Wall Street.
The entrance of the article said everything: “This is the story of a modern Robin Hood: some young and desired striptisers who stole bankers, runners, wall streets by drugping them ‘to subtract the money from their credit cards.'” Their ‘barreta’ was that some of them had lost everything in the traumatic stock market crisis of the New York Stock Exchange in 2008. Certain or not this justification -particularly I think they stole to guilty and innocent equally and were never any ‘Justicieras’-, Pressler’s story was so’ juicy ‘and devastating for the American public because he presented the testimony of nude and dancers of the tube. They was the daughter of Korean immigrants, Roselyn Keo (Destiny in the film, with Constance Wu in the role) and the other was Samantha Barbe (Jennifer Lopez, frankly impressive in that role, under the name of Ramona).
The tape shows us that, girls ‘giving them their deserved’ (sic), drugping them and removing the money to elegant executives, but the ‘other story’ is how this band of ‘peppers’ was actually discovered, to whom a relentless New York judge Street.
In real life, this group of outlaws fell the night for the complaint of a renowned cardiologist, Dr. Zyad Youun de Manhattan, who was sued by ‘Scores’, the most exclusive night club in the rich area of Chelsea, for not paying a $ 130 thousand dollars in consumption, same ‘Cholo’ Toledo in the ‘Melody’! It was there that the respectable newspaper The New York Times took the case, when a judge not only proved Dr. Youun and his version of ‘that they had peppered it’ -a term that was first used in the exclusive Supreme Court of Manhattan -but opened a criminal process to five people, accusing them of integrating an organized band of falsification, conspiracy, robbery and assault for appropriating more than 300 thousand dollars in a few thousand dollars in a few thousand dollars months, at the expense of wealthy clients who fell into their claws.
All were women, Striptease dancers and the ‘tube’, which, cornered, declared themselves guilty. When the journalist of The New York Magazine interviewed them, each one began to play their own game. The producers thought that this issue was perfect for the great Martin Scorsese, a specialist in ‘New York experiences’, and thus proposed JLO, general producer, but Marty at that time was engaged in his film ‘The Irish’. I turn off the TV.
