SIOUX CITY -- A Sioux City man has been charged with forgery after a Woodbury County Sheriff's deputy found 174 counterfeit $100 bills in his vehicle.
The deputy found the fake bills after stopping a car occupied by Nicholas Thompson, 29, on Jan. 8 on Interstate 29.
According to court documents, Thompson told the deputy he had won the money while gambling at WinnaVegas Casino in Sloan, Iowa. The deputy also found a piece of paper on which it appeared someone had attempted to print a $100 bill.
Thompson also faces charges of possession with intent to deliver a controlled substance, felon in possession of a firearm and failure to affix a drug tax stamp stemming from a Wednesday arrest at the conclusion of a vehicle chase that began shortly after after 1 a.m. after the driver and Thompson left WinnaVegas. The driver lost control of the vehicle after deputies deployed stop sticks in the 1700 block of 330th Street and entered the ditch.

You’re going to need a lawyer this time, Mr. Thompson.

At first, I thought this might be related to that seizure of counterfeit money from China at the Minneapolis airport.

I know a guy that used to make fake $1. bills. Easier to pass but it cost him $3. each to make so he went broke.

If the fine is over $17,400, he’s going to be in trouble.

... he had won the money while gambling at WinnaVegas Casino ... If he had really won that much money at the casino, they would have certainly called the BIL sheriff to confiscate it back.
This is an Indian casino after all.

I just cannot see why counterfeiting is a crime anymore. The fed prints money at an astonishing rate and backs it with absolutely nothing.

He didn’t think he was doing anything wrong. After all, north korea has been doing it for decades.
