The Deets
So, peep this. Back on September 16, 2022, the owner of Brickhouse, this dude named Chih Hwa Leo Chow, decided to get real sus with a customer, M.D., who was only 21. Apparently, she was at the bar with her mom. This guy legit served them drinks and then, according to the court, assaulted M.D. for, like, two hours. We talking touching her without permission and straight up violating her. It's giving major ick vibes.
Fast forward to December, he got convicted after a trial where a judge was like, "Nah, I don't buy your story." M.D. was straight up saying she didn't consent to any of that. The prosecutors wanted him locked up for 15 to 18 months, but his lawyer was trying to get him off with house arrest. The judge was like, "Hold up, you got no record, but this is messed up." He betrayed the mom and there was a big age gap.
Now, the Brickhouse? Its liquor license got yeeted. But get this, Chow's tryna get it back so he can pass it on to someone else. Talk about a power move. This whole situation is just... yikes.
