County Executive's Office Comments on Pimping Castle (Updated)
County Executive spokesman Patrick Lacefield left the following comment on the notorious "Pimping Castle" in Bethesda. Unlike our satirical account of a mythological raid, Lacefield's statement should be taken seriously.
Update: The Examiner has more.
Update 2: So does the Post. Why do the MSM outlets not use the term "Pimping Castle," which is of course British Lucky Paul's term for the house? Have they no (ahem) balls?
Montgomery County government received a complaint regarding the property at 6304 Tone Drive, Bethesda. The complaint centered around the use of the property and activities taking place inside the residence. Upon receiving this complaint, a Department of Permitting Services inspector visited the property with police officers from Montgomery County’s Vice Squad on Friday, January 26. They were refused entrance to the residence. Because of what was seen inside the property, and what was observed on the business owner’s website, and the community’s complaints, the Department of Permitting Services has written a Notice of Violation citing a commercial business violation. The Notice gives the business operator three days (Feb. 4) to cease the commercial parties and activities at this location. If the property owner continues to operate the business after three days, a Civil Citation requiring a court appearance by the property owner will be required. The County will continue to work with the community to resolve this matter and shut down this illegal business as quickly as possible.

Pimping Castle Raided by Police
Montgomery County Police raided Bethesda’s so-called “Pimping Castle” last night and MPW reporters were on the scene. The raid will quickly go down as one of the wildest ever in county history.
Responding to complaints by neighbors, dozens of county police converged in an early morning raid on the rental property known as the “Pimping Castle” in Bethesda last night. Officers apprehended dozens of unclothed and semi-clothed patrons, as well as numerous devices, implements, machines and how-to manuals that required several Ride-On buses to relocate.
“Let’s put it this way,” said Police Chief Tom Manger. “They had an object that looked like an obelisk in there that was bigger than anything the pharaohs built. And it wasn’t exactly covered in hieroglyphics. The attendees weren’t archaeologists either, although they were certainly digging around in places they didn’t belong!” Inquiries as to the whereabouts of the attendees and equipment poured in from places as far away as Bangkok, Amsterdam, Timbuktu and Xanadu.
The fire department also had to employ the “Jaws of Life” to extricate four attendees from one of the “sex machines” employed by the “Pimping Castle.” All four participants resisted rescue, claiming that they only needed another few minutes inside.
Manger did not respond to multiple witness statements that up to three County Council Members were apprehended in the raid. “Look, it’s a bad budget year, and I have a requisition in for a new $65,000 bathroom,” said the Chief. “Do you really think I want to mess that up?”
One of the individuals snared by the raid was MPW contributor Marc Korman, who claimed that he was led to believe that a Democratic Central Committee meeting was taking place inside the house. “How many Central Committee meetings are held with everybody in their underwear?” Manger laughed. Another individual caught inside was none other than rogue blogger Adam Pagnucco, who claimed to be conducting an “under-cover investigation.” “Look, there’s a reason why I keep hedge clippers in the house, and it’s not to trim hedges,” said the blogger’s wife, Holly Olson. “He better not come home anytime soon, or Andres is going to be an only child!”

Dear Honorable Leggett and Council Members,
We are residents of Merrimack Park in Bethesda (a small single-family community of less than 100 homes) living at [address withheld]. It has come to our attention that a renter at 6304 Tone Dr. who calls himself "British Lucky Paul" is using the house for regularly scheduled "sex parties" advertising "bondage, discipline, sadism and masochism (BDSM)." His website features pictures of the house, himself and some party participants and also is linked to many other BDSM websites. In addition to parties at the house, he is offering "keyholder positions open too if you just need a regular place to play". Two web sites documenting this information are:
www.britishluckypaul.com/home/home/castle
www.britishluckypaul.com/home/home/bio
He is selling tickets to the party on-line. The invitation to the parties offers two types of tickets--one for $20 where the partygoers BYOB, and the other is a VIP ticket for $50 that provides access to a VIP lounge with a stocked bar. In addition, the last party held at the house on January 23 (Pimps and Hos) stated there would be hookers at the party. Please see the link below.

Besides accumulations of trash, traffic to the house and neighborhood, excessive parking, and noise through the night into early morning, this person is operating an "adult" commercial business in a residential area where his neighbors are families with young children. By advertising the business on his web site and picturing the house, he is causing blight and damaging a quiet residential neighborhood.
As parents of [withheld] and owners in this quiet neighborhood, we are very concerned about an adult business operating in one of our neighbor's homes. Are the businesses and activities conducted in this home legal in a residential community? Are zoning laws or other codes being broken by this individual? Who do we need to contact to ensure these activities are legal.
Thank you in advance for your attention to this matter.
Sincerely,
[Name and Address Withheld]-----Original Message-----
Now we don't know what is going on in that house and we're not going over there to investigate! (At least, not openly.) But British Lucky Paul's website is the cat's meow! What self-respecting pervert could say no to his "classes?" Click on the screenshot if you dare!

To Whom it may concern,
Please be advised of the following activities that are occurring in our neighborhood. The schools, Whitman and Pyle are also advised of the situation below and may need some guidance from your office as to how to proceed. I do believe that they will move to the parking lots of our local schools!!
A renter at 6304 Tone Drive who calls himself "British Lucky Paul" is using the house for regularly scheduled, commercial "sex parties" advertising "bondage, discipline, sadism and masochism" on his web site. His parties routinely bring 200-plus guests. His website also advertises the availability of "keyholder positions" for non-residents who "just need a regular place to play". The website also advertises the availability of his "dungeon" to non-residents and posts a calendar of available times 24/7. The web address is www.britishluckypaul.com.
Besides the accumulations of trash, traffic and noise through the night into early morning, this person is operating an "adult" commercial business in a residential area made up of families and children. By advertising the business on websites, picturing the house, providing a map to the house, he is causing a blight and damaging a quiet residential neighborhood which is not zoned for such commercial use.
Thank you for your time and attention to this matter!!

Now we know that the cops are probably on their way to shut the house down as we write this. But the boys in blue need to make a good case in order to handcuff British Lucky Paul (assuming he has any objection to that). That means the police should take lots of video, maybe send in spies, and collect a ton of hard evidence to impose a stiff sentence.
We have just one request: send us the announcement for when the evidence is auctioned off after the trial!
