casino surveillance video of gamblers focus of lawsuit

Casino surveillance video focus of lawsuit By LEWIS KAMB, SEATTLE POST-INTELLIGENCER REPORTER June 27, 2003 Surveillance agents responsible for ferreting out cheats at the Tulalip Casino for months videotaped unwitting female gamblers for their own sexual entertainment, a former employee contends. And the employee claims that when she complained about the so-called "blooper tape" -- a compilation of surveillance footage that includes video clips of a female patron stripping off her clothes and another urinating outside the tribe's casino near Marysville -- casino managers schemed to force her out of a job. Now, Viooltje Arpryazhka, 58 years old and unemployed, is seeking compensation through a multimillion-dollar civil lawsuit filed last month in Tulalip Tribal Court.

Detectives are hoping the public can provide them with more information about Sandra (Sandy) Renee Morden, who they said disappeared when she was 16 years old. The case began when unidentified remains were found in 1980. The remains were identified as Morden in 2019 through DNA analysis of samples provided by her family members, the sheriff's office said in a statement.
