Police: Woman lost $800K at casino, stole $1.8M from Allentown boss


Massachusetts 'GAMING' Future
More proof of why my safeguard ‘CASINO MONTHLY STATEMENTS’ must become the law in every casino state. These statements would enable gamblers and their family members to spot a loved one's gambling problem before it gets out of hand. They could help those who are worried that someone they know could be their friends, employees, or worst yet their loved ones are having a casino gambling problem. For example, when the gambler asking to borrow money,... or more time to pay back a debt, but yet they keep saying they’re winning at the casino one could ask to see their casino statements. They could also help employers to keep an eye out on those employees who are gambling in casinos. Who knows how many individuals and their families would be in a better domestic and financial situation when being made aware, month after month, of their wins and mostly LOSSES in black and white.
