NBC4i Investigate’s Tom Sussi dug back into VICE’s previous investigatory tabs and discovered no other stings came even close to costing as much as Stormy’s.
These two were the closest ones:
- September 27 2017: VICE spent $290.00 on drinks, cover charges, tips and lap dances.
- January 20 2018: VICE spent $284.00 on cover, alcohol, and private dances.
NBC4i Investigates also learned the three VICE officers on the Stormy sting each earn $39.70 an hour during the eight-hour shift, totaling a $952.80 wage expense for taxpayers.
The grand total for the Stormy Sting: $1,712.80.
