So... we know (and correct me if I'm wrong as I only speed read prior posts related to this one):

  1. The band Abiku played gigs in the basement of this abandoned restaurant. They may have also lived there.

  2. The restaurant part of the building was at one time owned by a guy named William Umbel.

  3. Umbel was busted by the DEA for buying and distributing pot through his restaurant.

  4. The pot was grown in a huge grow-op nearby.

  5. When Umbel was in court facing charges, several lawyers wrote character reference letters on his behalf. Why? What was their relationship to him? Did he have something on them to make them want to do that?

We don't know if the strip club operated while he was still around or if it came along later, maybe illegally as a sort of ad-hoc squatter's setup after the restaurant closed down.

Questions:

Did Umbel rent out the basement to the strip club after he went to prison?

Why did the strip club shut down?

If child sex trafficking was occurring at that location, why did they shut down operations? Is that typical, like illegal dance and liquor clubs?

If so, where did they go? And does the weed selling operation follow the child sex trafficking locations?

Do they get the kids incredibly high prior to raping and killing them?

What happened to the pot guys?

They could have had gig(s) there but this i'm not sure , i know they where inside there. Because of the poster on the wall, and the related papers on the floor the carebear.

Why i think they lived or stayed there: If you have a performance, i can imagine you bring the bear, because its also featured in there music video. but i cant understand why you would bring the lyrics and the drawings. They need to be made inside, if you made those things after a gig, then why do you leave them there ?

In the video we are only presented 2 of those papers, but there are a lot of papers(/possble other drawings) on the floor and on desks

Yeah, I'd have to think the drawings were made before the gig. Maybe a girlfriend or boyfriend of the band had nothing else to do while the band rehearsed? Also, since the band was touring and they were dead broke, I can see them staying there before the gig, even if for only one night.
