Caesars Casino is Sued for Violating Privacy
Rights of Women
Yet another reason to gamble at online casinos instead of doing the
real thing: No security cameras, and no invasion of privacy. Such
was the lesson that gambler Theresa Magri learned after she found out
security personnel were spying on her in an illicit manner.
In a case that left Caesar's Palace in Atlantic City out $185,000,
Theresa Magri successfully sued the casino for leaving her with a giant
violation of her dignity. Two Caesar's surveillance supervisors,
as well as two camera operators, were fired as a result of shooting over
three hours of video tape that zoomed and focused on women's body parts
and anywhere else in which clothing was scantily clad.
This is not the first time that Caesar's was involved in this kind of
case. Perhaps the corruption and perversion runs deeper in the
casinos ranks than was earlier thought. In 2001, two surveillance
personnel had shot violating footage of women on the casino lobby floor
in Caesar's. This case did not come into light until very
recently, and was finally settled in December of 2004 for the amount of
$80,000.
Atlantic City's Division of Gaming Enforcement investigated both
situations and prodded Caesar's to agree to the settlements. Of
course the casino promises to be on its best behavior - But will that
keep women from dressing up (or rather, down), on the casino lobby from
now on?
