No swinging allowed zone I guess.
But guns drawn? Did the officers think anyone had a concealed weapon? In a sex club where most were probably nekkid?
Hee hee. What? I'm just sayin'
Cops raid Duncanville swingers' club
By JON NIELSEN / The Dallas Morning News
DUNCANVILLE – Police raided a notorious swingers’ club Saturday night, confiscating personal property from more than 50 people who were there.
Duncanville police executed a search warrant at the club, the Cherry Pit, which has been the subject of a Duncanville ordinance that bans sex clubs.
No one was arrested.
“They had guns drawn when they busted down the door,” said Ed Klein, the Cherry Pit’s attorney. “You’d have thought this was some kind of meth lab.”
“They had guns drawn when they busted down the door,” said Ed Klein, the Cherry Pit’s attorney. “You’d have thought this was some kind of meth lab.”
A lawsuit challenging the constitutionality of the ordinance was scheduled to be heard this week, but was postponed.
The search warrant alleges violations of the city ordinance, including operating a sex club in a residential neighborhood.
Jim Trulock, 59, and Julie M. Norris, 30, operate the club at their house in the 1300 block of North Cedar Ridge Drive.
City officials have said that the club is a public nuisance that is "detrimental to the health, safety and welfare of the city of Duncanville."
Duncanville officials declined to be interviewed this afternoon, but did issue a news release.
“The Cherry Pit, located in a Duncanville neighborhood, is advertised as a swingers’ club and has been previously cited for violating the City of Duncanville Code of Ordinances,” it said.

Mr. Trulock has received 10 citations, five for operating a sex club and five for operating a sexually oriented business without a license, city public information officer Tonya Lewis said.
Duncanville police said this afternoon that they were still cataloguing the evidence collected. The city wasn’t releasing details about what was found, but Mr. Klein said wallets, credit cards and purses were confiscated.
Mr. Klein said guests were photographed, and police took their work information before letting them go early Sunday morning.
