Will Go Go's past haunt Hotel California liquor license process?

YOUNGSTOWN

Attorneys and witnesses will reconvene tomorrow in Youngstown as the liquor permit

hearing for Hotel California in Austintown continues.

Two assistant Mahoning County prosecutors spent most of the afternoon going

through Sebastain Rucci and James Vitullo's history and the past events at

1051 N. Canfield Niles road and 5455 Clarkins Drive, the corner that Hotel

California currently sits and where its previous life as Go Go Girls

Cabaret stood.

Only a few witnesses were called today as each testimony was long due to the

lengthy history involving Go Go, Austintown Township, previous court cases

and liquor problems.

The most interesting part of today's event was when attorneys representing

Vitullo played snippets of audio from undercover informants during a

months-long investigation into drugs and prostitution at the Go Go.
