This officer as the news say went instantly into hero mode , arrested and handcuffed her . All these for the incredible (lol) amount of $202 , which the otherwoman left/forgot behind , then returnd back accusing the poor lady . This officer didn't do his job right towards a weak lady , he should have conducted a better investigation , informed his superior manager that night , regardless of the insignificant amont of the stolen money .

This was an ugly abuse by the security officer because some people think they are all-powerful and are ready to punish without thinking. Now he must overcome some consequences and deserve to be dismissed from his job. Casino pays for its sins.

Many people do not respect the laws and they abuse. That means democracy is disappearing because in 2020 we made many cases where people suffered. Police or gendarmes they hurt citizens and now it's turn of guards security.

I can understand the frustration of the lady who accused the othe poor lady of theft , so many hours of playing and losing , and sddenly win some money back of the total money you have played , invested on the game might blur your mind and start saying nonsense .
But the security guard should have been more carefull , more experienced , more prepared to deal with this kind of situations .
I do not know the status of the accusing lady , because he believed hes instantly , was she so important , a rich , a well known to the casino owner or the manager or to the employees there ??? It's seriously strange that he started berating thepoor accused woman so easily .

It is good that justice is done, so that the same mistake is not made again, they should apologize to the client, I imagine how he would have felt that day, ..

thats why you need to react on normal way and first to ask every person whats happend and who is guilt,not just to attack somebody just because you are security man!you need to listen both sides and to solve this problem on normal way,especially if this person isnt agressive!now he will probably lose his job and casino will pay this amount to women! I just can say that in this case he got jackpot,300 000 $ for 90 minutes in room

Nevada Gaming Control Board has been elected with $ 300,000 due to an abused woman. Now i am curious what amount of compensation the victim will receive, because consider that it must be higher than that fine. Anyway, guard is very guilty.

In the news it didn't say he lost his job , I don;t think they officially recognised their responsibility 100% for this incident , ofcourse this is a practice everywhere and everytime , a compromise , or else the victim would come and would ask millions and millions , not one victim , every victim from all last years , for every casino , a destruction .
These mistakesd happen . He must lose his job , I am not happy to say , but this shoud be done , as an example for other security guars , who in the US have a lot of power and right on civilians (hundcuff them , sometimes even shoot them !!) , so they will restrain themselves for their own good and te good of their casino where they work . Cause if they get fired , the word will spread , no casino or similar business will hire them

This security guard should lose his job. I don't understand why he chose this variant of abuse. Now people have no value and are we in a dictatorship? Well, then let's start a anarchy and overthrow the super-corrupt system of government.

I read again the news . the good thing to mention , is that the casino itself let the NGCB know of the incident , after the lady phoned them and complained and some days passed with delay and a research took place and they found out that something actually might have gone wrong .
So , they didn't try to hide the inciden't . That's very nice and honourable on behalf of them . I wonder why . Does NGCB have very strict penelaties if it finds out that a casino has tried to hide an incident ?? I guess so , or else there is no meaning , this thruthfulness makes me almost wanna cry , lol , like saying , pls , I might have made a mistake , If So Do Punish Me , Masochism At Its Peak , or Maybe Retardness ??

they know that they will pay on end and that they cant hide this!in america you have right as citizen and every court will be on your side,especially when you get physical contact and you didnt done anything!with this case other casinos will learn how to react and how to treat players on their ground!

As long as the laws are not so solid for the population, some people do harm to others. Threats, abuses, brutality, beatings etc... Security guard needed to know that he cannot do this thing. I would like as he to pay a lot for it.

dule vu , I think in America it's both srories true , yes if they learn it they will impose more strict penalties but on the other hand security guards have a lot more powers , enforce rights on citizens , if or when an incident , even very small takesplace where they work , here in Europe , in most countires it's different , the opposite I would say , the security guards have to call the police to arrest sb , only in extreme cases they can do sth themselves Anyway , also in some cases if the customer is poor , I believe the end of the story will be the same or worse as in europe , he will be treated very bad in such an occasion if a known to the casino customer or rich customer accuse him of cheating .
If sb is losing money all the time , all night , or if he loses and wins very ilittle suddenly , he's ready for a fight anyway , either a man or woman , casinos have security personel for that reason also , they have to be trained vey well and do their job accordingly .

Security officer & other supervisors did not proceed correctly to follow all cameras from the casino and that means they were semi-amateurs or something identical. It's a shame to proceed so ugly, This woman must claim beautiful damages...

probably they have bigger powers then secutiry guard in europe,especially in this big casinos,but they also need to be careful how they will react,as you can see in this case!we all know how security guards can react on balkan,they will fight with anybody,especially in night clubs! but when you do something like this in america,people have bigger rights then in other countries and you can see how much they will need to pay for it!

They are not allowed to abuse people. When police arrest you, don't beat like in the past. People have rights in America and that security guard was probably nervous about another reason... that's why preferring that behavior.

I know that americans have some special laws and that companies need to publish every terms,because they dont want to allow that somebody sue them!like that they need to have warning on hair dryer that you cant use it in water!but when things like this are in question or when somebody come without your permision in house and you can kill him,thats laws that respect at them!

Before, police killed innocent people under command of other criminals from all levels, and when it was no longer possible, they beat or arrested them... without any fault of victims. It's about the African-American population. Now others are trying to become important through stupidity.
behind , then returnd back accusing the poor lady . This officer didn't do his job right towards a weak lady , he should have conducted a better investigation , informed his superior manager that night , regardless of the insignificant amont of the stolen money .
