There could be a few after effects of the wrongful dismissal of the case involving Sheldon Adelson's Las Vegas Sands group and its former Macau chief executive, Steven Jacobs after the filing of a petition this week to a Clark County District Judge.
The petition, filed by the Campaign for Accountability and the British newspaper group Guardian News and Media, seeks approval from a judge to release case filings, which may identify a connection between the Sands and Chinese organized crime triads.
Former Hong Kong police investigator Steven Vickers, is reportedly responsible for preparing the sealed evidence, which reportedly contains Adelson's acknowledgment of his status as a major Republican Party donor and American political influence.
A link between the Sands and a crime organization could raise a red flag to Las Vegas licensing authorities.

I hope it does raise a red, green, blue or any other color flag that will out Sheldon Adelson for the corrupt creep he is as he has no problem doing whatever it takes to see after his own interests. Even if it is illegal and disrupts all other type of progress he is uninterested in for himself. He (Sheldon Adelson) needs...

No one likes a bully and organized crime attempting to take the "chance" out of gambling is just that. Ironically, the biggest star the Sands ever had, Frank Sinatra, was the world's staunchest advocate of the proverbial "little guy". Vegas and its "little guys" with brave hearts and the kind of fearlessness that brought it from a hopeless watering hole in an endless desert to the ENDless hope mecca it has become wouldn't allow the East Coast mobsters to steal their dreams in the 60s and no corporate prescence or International technology is a match either. Shame on you Sands, for risking the name made for you by your ancestors and trying to redefine the term "Rat Pack".
