A Long Island nursing home is facing a lawsuit after hiring strippers as entertainment for its residents.
The suit was filed on behalf of Bernice Youngblood after her son saw a picture of the event.
He found the photo among his mother’s things when visiting her at the home.
Among the many things about the image that disturbed him was that the bills his 86-year-old mother was stuffing into the stripper’s briefs were supposed to be reserved for her commissary account.
When he approached a nurse with the photo and questioned her about it, it’s said she lunged towards him, trying to get the snapshot out of his hand.
The family’s other attempts to express their outrage were reportedly ignored.
Of the incident at large, the family’s attorney commented, “He had a fistful of dollars in his hand and she was putting a dollar in his pants at his demand; he’s leaning over her, he’s not just standing there, he’s intimidating her. This might be great for 32-year-old single girls, but this is an 86-year-old traditional, African-American woman who doesn’t want white men sticking their private parts in her face.”
