According to the Review Journal, it happened at the Cannery around 6
a.m. on Friday.Police said Jennifer Stitt was upset about getting
kicked out and sped right into the doors striking the 66-year-old
victim, who is expected to survive.
“A little bit farther and it would have been into the table games,” police spokesman Eric Leavitt told the news outlet.
Stefan Meeder was on his way to pick up a coworker when he saw the crash. He said he couldn’t believe it.
“I pull up and it looks like something right out of a movie,” he
said.Wilkie attempted to establish a royal commission into Crown in July
this year but was voted down by both Labor and the Coalition. The
motion put to parliament Tuesday was also defeated in the lower house.
The footage shows a man, whose face is obscured, carrying a shopping
freezer bag, unloading “bricks” of $50 and $100 notes, bound together
with elastic bands. A casino employee is shown to accept the money and
it is counted by machine. The cashier makes calculations on a calculator
and is shown to give the man a series of high-value casino chips. The
man leans casually on the counter and appears to talk to friends and
casino staff while the transaction is processed.
At points in the footage, the security camera swings around to
reveal other transactions occurring and zooms in to focus on money and
chips on the counter.It’s so much money, where would it come from?” the
whistleblower said. “And in an Aldi bag; if it was legit, why wasn’t it
in the bank?”
The whistleblower claims that the same gambler returned to the same
room a number of weeks later to deposit even more money.The
whistleblower alleges that cash deposited with the casino in sums as
large as these is either put into a bank account or exchanged for
large-value chips, which are later cashed in: “Therefore the money is
cleaned up.
“It’s happening every week. There’s been reports put in on it, but it’s still going on.”
Wilkie also revealed an interview with a Crown casino limousine
driver who alleged high-rollers are flown into Australia on private
jets, bypassing customs checks and driven straight to the casino.
High-rollers are allegedly able to access illegal drugs, offered
prostitutes and, essentially, anything else they ask for.
