In the state of Ohio, an underground casino disguised as a boutique was exposed. The owner was found with an arsenal of weapons, 4.5 kg of marijuana and $600k in cash.

The raid was carried out by officers from the city of Akron, Ohio, and a SWAT unit. In addition to the drugs and the large amount of cash, law enforcement seized 11 pistols, an AR-15 semi-automatic rifle, three bulletproof vests and unlicensed slot machines. During the raid, police arrested 39-year-old Derrick Chatman, who is accused of illegal drug distribution and weapons possession.

Chatman was hiding the underground casino in a room of a women’s clothing boutique, and Akron residents had complained about the establishment multiple times. “Lately we’ve had several complaints from some residents about suspicious activity here, so our officers were keeping an eye on this business,” law enforcement said.

Looks like there wasn’t room in the boutique for the girls… )

PS. And they’ll probably get it full-on, there’s both federal law and the state’s law… Besides, they don’t have a system of “agreements” (plea bargains), like we do,…) The ‘pendoses’ all go by “honest” rules (if you didn’t cooperate with the investigation), so all the charges pretty much stack up, and the death penalty is still “alive and kicking”…
