Implode this casino already and be done with the drama.
They arrested the wrong security team .they should get stc security for helping them still the money. And being armed at the casino.
I'm not so sure...David Paul Anderson, I believe, is still loose and hasn't been caught or turned himself in.
Is that meeting on for 1-5-15 still? The bond holders going to sell the place? We will wait and see Chukchansi head in the path of a guillotine and say goodbye to the $$$
