BLACK HAWK, Colorado (KRDO) — Prosecutors dismiss the charges against a woman accused of stealing $500,000 in cash from Monarch Casino. She was likely involved in a conspiracy that tricked her into taking the money.
In March of 2023, Sabrina Eddy was captured on video grabbing bricks of $50,000 from the casino’s cage vault. She walked out, got into a gold minivan, and drove off. An hour later she returned, grabbing four more bricks of bills. For a total of half a million dollars in all before driving off again.
At a hearing last Friday, prosecutors moved to dismiss the case against Eddy. During investigations, it found Eddy was believed to be acting under a scheme that targets cage employees to deliver money to someone portraying themselves as someone with the casino.
It was a trend officials say that spread across the nation last summer. Prosecutors say an arrest warrant has been issued for a second suspect in connection with the case. They believed they are outside the U.S.
