Cheating comes in many forms. What makes news is when a casino like Foxwoods in Connecticut loses almost $1 to cheating:
Four Korean nationals linked to an international casino cheating syndicate and arrested at Foxwoods Resort Casino this week are suspected of bilking casinos out of between $750,000 and $1 million, authorities say. Two of the four, Young Su Gy, 60, and Wookyung Kim, 34, were charged Monday as part of a three-month investigation involving state and federal authorities, along with casino security, according to state police Detective Martin Graham.
Interestingly, what doesn't make news is when tribes cheat their own people. The Pechanga Band of Luiseno Indians has cheated and stolen over $300 milllion from tribal members that were unconstitutionally terminated from the tribe. Yet, state and federal authorities will spend three months following four people, but here in California, NO Federal help, No State help for HUNDREDS who have been defrauded by the Pechanga Tribal Council, led by Mark Macarro and Russell "Butch" Murphy. We continue to shine a spotlight on tribal corruption.
HUH?

Dennis Kucinich Speaks out against Disenrollments and Civil Rights Violations
We were able to give Dennis and his lovely wife our handout that detailed what Pechanga was doing to our people and he grasped that it was a violation of civil rights immediately. "This is a violation of civil rights!" , he told me. "Yes, sir" I replied.
As the Pechanga Tribal Council and their ambulance chaser looked on, Presidential Candidate Dennis Kucinich spoke out against tribal disenrollments and violations of civil rights. "It's Wrong!"
Pechanga has disenrolled 25% of their adult members, causing them to lose per capita payments, health coverage, educational assistance and conversely, enriching the remaining members.
Tribal Council Members Butch Murphy and Mark Luker looked pale. OF COURSE, since Murphy has NO Indian Blood, that's easy to do.
There were many in the audience that rose in approval of Kucinich's words. It was refreshing to see a politician who wasn't sitting on his hands, or worse sticking his head in the sand.
