LOL. I guess whenever he would run out of money for the drugs. When they caught him they found a large amount of drugs, they must have been really mad because they wanted the money, not the drugs! So now he was “trafficking” the drugs?

Anthony Carleo, but his dad’s name is George Assad.

Is he an Assad?

His father, along with his family, was among a small minority of Christians living in Syria in 1952 who were able to emigrate to the United States.

I saw this story on CNN, and they never mentioned that his dad was a judge. Interesting.

Since his dad is a judge, maybe he can use the $25,000 casino chips that he stole to bribe his dad to let him off.

Back when Vinnie and Pauly were running Vegas, this wouldn’t have happened. At least we wouldn’t seeing his mugshot in the paper. There’s a lot of holes in the desert.

I just can’t figure out what he was going to do with those chips. Weird.
