Gentleman's club owner hit with fine after Manchester dancer 'left to die'

The owner of a gentleman's club in Australia where a Manchester-born dancer was found dead has been fined $28,000.

Stacey Tierney, a fitness instructor from Withington, was working at the Dreams club in Melbourne in 2016 to earn money to study nursing. The 29-year-old told friends that she 'didn't enjoy it, but the money was good'.

Just before Christmas, she died after taking a cocktail of drugs in a private manager's lounge in the table-top dancing venue. More than 30 hours passed between Ms Tierney entering the room - the only one not monitored by cameras - and her body being taken from the venue by ambulance officers.
