A 28-year-old Montgomery man has been convicted of stealing nearly $200,000 from the Wind Creek Casino in Montgomery, Alabama.
On Thursday, November 14, 2019, a federal jury convicted Jory D’Michael Trayvunn Dumas of theft from a gaming establishment on tribal lands and conspiracy, announced U.S. Attorney Louis V. Franklin, Sr.
The jury found that Dumas conspired with others to steal $192,800 from the casino.
Evidence presented at trial showed that on August 10, 2018, Dumas was at the casino with two relatives, Timothy Dean Pettiway and Tameka Thomas.
Dumas had previously recruited an employee, Courtney Deandra Stanton, to give him access to keys to the cash kiosks at the casino.
Dumas instructed Stanton to leave the keys on top of a cash kiosk for Pettiway to retrieve and open the machines.
Pettiway then took cash cassettes from two separate kiosks to Dumas who was waiting in a nearby bathroom.
Dumas forced entry into the boxes, hid the money on his person, and exited the casino with a total of $192,800.
Following the trial, Dumas was remanded to the custody of the United States Marshals to await sentencing where he faces up to 20 years in prison.
Pettiway was previously sentenced to 33 months in federal prison for his role in the crime.
Thomas and Stanton have pled guilty and are awaiting sentencing.
