Of that, I have no idea. Predictions are difficult, especially about the future, and doubly so where a possible trial and the “legal” system is involved. The level of corruption in Las Vegas is high, and not to be underestimated.

The LVMPD has kept their checkbook ready at hand and wide open for years to deal with events like this. If the price is pushed high enough, the taxpayers might finally be fed up enough to push for change.

Remember who the mayor of Vegas currently is: a mob lawyer.

Not a pretend, I’m-making-this-up-hyperbole mob lawyer. The real deal. Oscar Goodman was Lefty Rosenthal’s lawyer when the Nevada Gaming Commission wanted Lefty out of business. Goodman also represented “Tony the Ant” Spilatro (sp?), who was well known for being a killer.

And yet, the residents of Vegas voted for a mob lawyer for mayor.

Does that give you an indication of how corrupt the town is?

Yes. Thanks for the info.

Is there a possibility that the state might step in?
