A former Veterans Affairs employee who managed one of the department’s retail stores admitted that he stole $150,000 from the store and spent it on strippers, prostitutes, and gambling, according to the Justice Department.

Glenn Alan Bates, who managed the Ann Arbor, Mich., store from 2006-2013, admitted to spending the stolen cash to bring strippers back to his hotel room for sex, according to the Detroit News.

Bates, who was released on $10,000 unsecured bond Tuesday, told investigators he spent some of the cash on a stripper named “Ashley” at an Ohio strip club, according to court records. He said he often spent $500 a night on lap dances — and more.
