Monkeying Around in Nevada

"A chimpanzee who rampaged through a Las Vegas neighborhood last month made a second escape from her enclosure this weekend, but her caretaker thinks she had human help this time." 

An inside job?

"A plane that crashed into spectators at an air race in Reno last year bore modifications that weakened its structure and showed evidence that it was flown beyond its limits, investigators said Monday."

Sorry, but I no longer believe anything governments say regarding plane crashes.

It's always a safe bet against the truthfulness of the AmeriKan media.

"Man charged in theft of Las Vegas casino chips" Associated Press, October 31, 2012

LAS VEGAS — A man suspected of sneaking into a restricted area of the Venetian resort and stealing $1.6 million in casino chips was arrested in Southern California, Las Vegas police said Tuesday.

Authorities credited media attention about the case for a tip that led them to Palmdale resident Akingide Cole, 31....

It was unlikely anyone would have been able to redeem all the stolen, high-value chips, which are usually circulated among a small group of high-rollers, said Jerry Markling, the Nevada Gaming Control Board’s chief of enforcement.

Casinos typically have a second, differently styled set of chips that can be put into circulation after a theft, Markling said. That way, someone trying to play with stolen chips would stand out.
