Case Details
LeAndra Lewis, a stripper, was denied workers' compensation benefits after being shot at her workplace. The South Carolina Court of Appeals affirmed the workers’ compensation commission’s decision that she was not considered an employee.
Additional Notes
The 2008 shooting left Lewis with serious injuries to her liver, intestines, pancreas, kidney and uterus. During her stripping days, Lewis would normally work five nights a week, traveling between the Carolinas. However, the scarring resulting from her injuries has cut her stripping career short.
