A fourth person has been charged in an elaborate theft operation at Rivers Casino.

Player Gabriella Marie Bianco has been charged with theft by deception, knowing to manipulate a win and conspiracy by Pennsylvania State Police after two Rivers Casino employees and one other player with theft by deception and more.

Original story:

Investigators and Rivers Casino authorities were alerted earlier this year by an anonymous letter, that possible thefts were taking place by dealers on the casino’s floor.

Security cameras showed deal Robin Schnepp, working a roulette electronic table game, would spin the ball in the same direction of the week.

The would cause and error to be displayed.

That would prompt Schnepp to alert supervisor, Anthony Laush. He would come by and use his “supervisor FOB” to confirm the outcome of the numbers instead of voiding the spin for the players.

The confirmation would pay out winnings to “those players who knew that they could continuously bet during the errored state.”

One of the players, Jack Mars III has been charged in the incident.

Schneep, Laush and Mars are also charged with “knowing to manipulate a win” and conspiracy.
