Detectives in the Los Angeles suburb of West Covina were interviewing the women, who range in age from 17 to 25, after seizing 180 video files from the personal computer of former Hooters manager Juan Aponte, police spokesman Rudy Lopez said. I'm sure there will be a thorough review of the evidence.

Check the ownership records for the franchise. I imagine you'd find one WJB Clinton listed among the investors.

I don't believe this happened.....where's the proof?

Waitress applicants for Hooters? whaddyaknow. I figured they were applying for the snack bar at the Clinton library.

Lopez said, adding that while more than 1,200 women had applied it appeared that not all were taped. They should at least be fired for incompetence.

The first clue that something was wrong was when they had to change into a Hooters uniform before the restaurant owner knew whether or not he could hire them.
If neither the resume nor the interview provide enough evidence to make a hiring decision, wearing a uniform shouldn't change anything.

...police spokesman Rudy Lopez said. ... "We're taking photographs of the girls in the videotapes and comparing them with the applications and that's who we're trying to contact," ...Aponte's lawyer, Brian Michaels, declined to comment on the details of the case, but said, "We've been cooperative with the police and we're going to remain cooperative to the extent that it helps my client and clears this matter."
Lopez said Aponte, 32, had not been arrested ...
Surely there are criminal charges which would warrant an arrest without third parties also looking at the tapes and making copies of each naked woman and distributing them to others prior to any official action being taken.
Reads to me that the cops might also become class action defendants in this issue.
IMHO, no need to arrest, just post the manager's address in the newspaper and I suspect the prospective waitresses and their boyfriends/husbands will handle the situation out of court.

The tapes, stills, etc. are probably proliferating over the Internet as we type.

They're offended at being videotaped naked, but have no problem with "working" half-naked. Modesty wouldn't seem to be the defining characteristic of Hooters personnel.
By the same token, this creep should be flogged through the public square.

You are right. I am surprised Hooters get away with such obvious discrimination in their hiring practices...
To: Fzob
The ones who were NOT videotaped probably feel worse - didn't they measure up enough to be taped? The whole thing reminds me of the South Park episode "Raisins", where the kids go to the restaurant, and one believs that the waitresses are really interested in him, when it's all an act.
