Cashier Swindled in $500K Robbery

Casinos attract all kinds of people. Some of them are looking for a good time, while others have different things in mind. Some of them happen to be criminals looking to score and will do anything to get some cash out of the casino.

Monarch Casino in Colorado happened to be the location of a heist. The cashier helped the robber get $500,000 out of the casino in closed bags. The problem was that she wasn’t doing so knowingly. The robber happened to be a con man who put her in a sticky situation.

Monarch Casino Cashier Fooled by Anonymous Robber

Sabrina Eddy was just a regular cashier doing her job at Monarch Casino. While on her job, she received a call from an anonymous caller that identified themselves as head of operations. They stated that they had called for a UPS delivery order issue and were called again to deliver another box.

She was to take certain funds and take them to St. Anthony’s hospital. She put the money in the box and waited for the man. Sabrina had done so twice and was told to wait for the box, but the man never appeared again. This is the statement she told the court and is now under arrest until further notice.

Surveillance operators of Monarch Casino worked with an investigator of the Division of Gaming in Colorado to find out what had happened. The footage showed Sabrina taking out bundles of cash on multiple occasions. The amount that was missing was revealed to be $500,000.

It is possible that Sabrina was conned into stealing the money making her an accomplice unbeknownst to her. But it’s also possible she was collaborating with the anonymous man and that they were going to split the money later. A third option might exist, but it’s still early as the investigation is in its beginning stages. Time will tell if Sabrina was conned into stealing $500,000 or if she was working together with the second suspect. Surveillance footage and court states will guide investigators further down the road.

Conclusion

Sabrina Eddy, a cashier at Monarch Casino, was arrested after she had allegedly stolen $500,000 from the venue. Camera footage confirmed she took out bundles and bricks of cash on multiple occasions. She told the courts an anonymous person called her regarding a UPS delivery issue and she gave the money to him, after which he didn’t return the delivery.
