HOW CASINO CASINO CASINOS ARE ABLE TO GAMBLING ADDICTS
Scott Stevens loaded a brown bag of hunting into his Jeep Grand Cherokee and then went to Stacy's master bedroom where he hugged her, his wife of 23 year. He said to her, "I love you."
Stacy thought her husband was heading off to a job interview, followed by a consultation with his therapist. Instead, he drove the 22-miles from Steubenville in Ohio to the Mountaineer Casino outside New Cumberland. He checked his bank account balance at the casino ATM. It was $13,400. He walked across casino floor to Triple Stars. This three-reel, $10 per spin, slot machine was his favorite. Perhaps this time, it would pay enough to save him.
It didn't. He spent the next four hour draining $13,000 out of the account and then plugging any winnings back into his machine until he left with $4,000 remaining. He finally gave up around noon.
Stevens, 52, quit the casino to write a five page letter to Stacy. Former chief operating officer at Louis Berkman Investment. He gave her detailed financial instructions that would allow her to avoid any losses and maintain her credit. She was instructed to deposit the check for $4,000, move her funds to a new checking account, decline to pay him the Bellagio casino money in Las Vegas, and file her tax returns. He asked her to have him cremated.
He wrote that his tears were "crying like babies" when he thought back to how much he loved their three daughters and wife. He wrote that "Our family only has a chance" if he isn't there to bring them down anymore. "I'm sorry that I'm putting this through you."
He then put the letter with the check in an envelope. Then he drove to Steubenville and dropped it off at the post office. He drove to Steubenville and mailed the letter and check. Then, he went to Jefferson Kiwanis Youth Soccer Club. He had raised money for the green fields and then tended them with his lawnmower while watching his daughters play.
Stevens parked his Jeep on the gravel lot. He called Ricky Gurbst from Cleveland, an attorney whose firm, Squire patton Boggs represented Berkman. Stevens worked at Berkman for 14 years until six and a quarter months prior when the firm discovered that Stevens was stealing company funds to fund his gambling habits and fired him.
Stevens wrote a request. He wanted to ask the company to continue paying my daughters' college tuition. Stevens had been informed that the tuition benefit they had provided for the fall semester would be ended. The final blow was to his daughters. Casinos
