Victim, entertainer previously knew each other, police say

LAS VEGAS (KLAS) — A gentlemen’s club entertainer allegedly stole two expensive watches from a man’s home after spending the night, documents said.

Jennifer Tapia Alvarado faces charges of grand larceny and burglary, records said. Her date of birth was redacted in court documents, but her year of birth indicates she was 24 or 25.

In August, a man said she went to a gentlemen’s club where he met with a woman he knew as “Hazel,” police said. “Hazel” was Jennifer Tapia Alvarado, who was identified in court documents as a “female entertainer,” police said. The man and Tapia Alvarado previously knew each other and had exchanged messages.

Around 3 a.m. on that August night, the man left the first gentlemen’s club and headed over to a second, police said. There, the man and Tapia Alvarado agreed to meet, and later, the pair went home together.

The man “was adamant” that Tapia Alvarado “did not solicit [him] for any sexual services and believed the encounter to be consensual,” the detective wrote in court documents.

The next morning, the man woke up, finding two Rolex watches, with a combined value of $40,000, missing. When he attempted to contact Tapia Alvarado, he found his number blocked, police said.

Police said Tapia Alvarado, who had a Phoenix address, worked at one of the gentlemen’s clubs, where police contacted her that week, they said.

A warrant for Tapia Alvardo’s arrest was filed in November. A judge granted her an own-recognizance walkthrough arrest, meaning while booked at the jail, she did not have to stay.

A preliminary hearing was scheduled for February.
