The Mystic Gambler

The casino industry is wary of the future of Bally’s Bronx casino project following Kristy Marmorato’s triumph in the Bronx. The Republican, who has previously expressed her opposition to the project, won the Bronx seat at the New York City Council.

Marmorato dealt a historic defeat to her opponent, the incumbent District 13 representative Marjorie Velasquez, turning a Bronx seat red for the first time in decades. Unfortunately for Bally’s, Marmorato isn’t as supportive of its casino project as Velasquez.

Velasquez supported the casino operator’s project, believing it to be a potential boon to the local economy. Marmorato, on the other hand, sees the planned casino as a potential nightmare for the well-being of the local people.

According to the newly elected District 13 representative, the Bronx is one of the New York areas with the highest asthma rates. As a result, the traffic a casino can generate could be an “environmental nightmare.”

Marmorato will step into the office in January and could turn out to be be a major setback for Bally’s plans.

The NY Casino License Race Continues

The Ferry Links Golf Course is a famous property that was leased to the Trump Organization, which enhanced it by developing a large clubhouse and an events facility. Bally’s current plan is to also construct a casino resort at the property, should it win one of the three downstate New York licenses currently on the table.

Bally’s secured the transfer of the lease in a $60 million deal with the Trump Organization a few weeks ago, allowing it to proceed with its pitch.

The 20-year lease was issued to the Trump Organization in 2015 but caused controversies in the wake of the Capitol riot. The New York Parks Department now hopes that Bally’s would be a suitable successor to the property and will take good care of it.

Last month, the Soloviev Group updated its proposal in hopes of winning one of the three casino licenses. The group published an updated plan that featured over 500 permanent affordable housing units, hoping to make its bid more appealing.

Speaking of New York, the state became the first US jurisdiction to surpass $2 billion in monthly betting handle after hitting a staggering $2,006,823,408 in September.

A man for Oklahoma has been sentenced to life in prison for the murder of a man who jokingly bragged about winning at a local casino. As it turned out, the supposed winner had no money, which infuriating the killer.

Back in October 2020, the killer, Kevin Marvell Jackson, 22, was attending a house party in Muskogee with his girlfriend Natalie McMahon. There, he met with the victim, Bradley Dillon, 19, and another friend named Dakota Berryhill.

At one point, Dillon and Berryhill left the party and went to Creek Nation Casino Muskogee, a local gambling property. While on their way back to the party, the two called their friends and joked about winning $10,000.

The money tempted Jackson and, without taking time to consider whether Dilon and Berryhill had truly won a prize, he prepared to rob them. Jackson quickly grabbed a gun and hid his face with a ski mask. Then, he waited for the two other men to return and ambushed them as they got out of the car.

Jackson then learned that the two men had no money. Angry, he threatened them with a gun, telling them to drive to an ATM and withdraw some. At that point, Berryhill got scared, jumped back into the car and drove away, leaving his Dillon behind. The frustrated killer then took the young man’s life, shooting him five times.

Jackson Will Spend His Life Behind Bars

Dillon was rushed to St. Francis Hospital but was pronounced dead. In the meantime, the police began the search for the killer.

A woman by the name Vicky Garza saw the murder and helped the police identify the killer. Facebook Messenger conversations with McMahon helped the law enforcers incriminate him. However, it wouldn’t be before several weeks that the murderer was finally arrested.

Jackson’s despicable crime has now earned him two life sentences without the right for parole. He was also sentenced to 180 in prison for robbery in an Indian Country and 180 months in prison for using a firearm for a violent crime.

Attorney Christopher Wilson commented on the matter, saying that there is no room in society for people who commit “such callous acts” as Jackson.

In other legal news, two Las Vegas dealers were arrested for allegedly helping two regular baccarat players win big sums.
