DPS Retired Trooper To Be Awarded Congressional Badge of Bravery

News

April 17th, 2015 by Ric Hanson

Later this (Friday) morning, Iowa Senator Chuck Grassley will present retired Iowa State Patrol Trooper Mark Domino with the State and Local Law Enforcement Congressional Badge of Bravery by Attorney General Eric Holder. The event will take place at 10:30-a.m., during the DPS Promotional Ceremony being held at the State Historical Building.

On October 30th, 2012, the Maynard Savings Bank was robbed by two heavily armed men. Following the robbery, the subjects fired shots at numerous law enforcement officers, disabling several emergency vehicles and wounding an officer. Trooper Domino located the suspect vehicle and began a solo pursuit, during which he was fired upon multiple times. A gun battle ensued and Trooper Domino was shot in the right bicep.

The Trooper continued the pursuit despite his injury, and returned fire. The suspects crashed into a ditch and fled on foot to a heavily wooded area.  Officers from local, county, state and federal agencies were able to locate the subjects and take them into custody without further incident or injury.

The Law Enforcement Congressional Badge of Bravery Act of 2008 established the Congressional Badge of Bravery to honor exceptional acts of bravery in the line of duty by federal, state, county, local and tribal law enforcement officers.

Hard Rock Casino in SC fined again for banned gambler

News

April 17th, 2015 by Ric Hanson

The Hard Rock Casino in Sioux City agreed to a five-thousand dollar fine Thursday, from the Iowa Racing and Gaming Commission for its second gambling violation in as many months. Iowa Racing and Gaming administrator, Brian Ohorilko, says the violation involved a person who had agreed to a self ban. “An individual that had signed up on the statewide list in 2007, that individual was able to obtain a player’s club card at the Hard Rock facility, so that was the triggering factor for the violation,” Ohorilko explained.

The fine was based on the casino’s history of violations. “The violation was one that was self-reported by Hard Rock. It is their second violation of this nature within the past 365 days, which past precedent called for a five-thousand dollar fine. That’s what the parties agreed to, and the commission did approve that stipulation,” Ohorilko says. The violation comes just one month after the casino was fined three-thousand dollars at the commission’s March meeting.

“The first incident occurred a few months prior to this, and the parties — Hard Rock and commission staff — entered into a stipulated agreement at that time,” Ohorilko says. The casino has only been open since August of last year. Ohorilko says management has been doing some retraining of staff following the violations.

“They’ve implemented additional procedures and controls to help prevent this,” Ohorilko says. “They do have a number of new employees at the new facility, however it doesn’t change our expectations and Hard Rock management recognizes that and has indicated that they are going to try to address it.”

The person in the first violation was able to gamble and was not caught until he tried to cash in the jackpot and his name turned up on the banned list.
