Here's what's fact and what's fiction in the tale of strippers scamming Wall Street. HustlersMovie
Constance Wu plays Dorothy, aka"Destiny," who lives with her ailing grandma in Queens and starts dancing to help pay the bills. At the club, she's taken under Ramona's wing and taught the ways of manipulating men. At one point, she has a regular who buys her a new laptop, just because he likes watching her study. She gets pregnant by her on-off boyfriend and gives birth to a daughter, briefly leaving stripping behind before returning for the titular hustle.
In the end, enough victims come forward that the police are able to issue arrest warrants. The cops pick Ramona up at an ATM, cash in hand. Destiny accepts the plea deal in exchange for no jail time. Outside the station, she shares the news with an emotional Ramona and the two go their separate ways. Ramona gets five years probation and Annabelle and Mercedes have to spend weekends in jail for four months.
Ultimately, enough men came forth with the same story that the police arrested the women. They picked up Samantha at an ATM. Rosie, Samantha, Karina and Marsi were all charged with forgery, conspiracy, grand larceny and assault. Rosie accepted the plea deal, to which Samantha would later text her:"Good luck." The remaining women pled guilty to conspiracy, assault and grand larceny. Samantha got probation, while Karina and Marsi were sentenced to spend weekends in jail for four months.
