Miller has long fought the "good fight" at major personal expense to both himself and his family.

Unlike other elected officials who before office live in hovels, and who after office reside in mansions, Miller continues to reside in the same house purchased by funds he earned himself.

In a state where soooooooo many live off the misery of so many...I praise Allah PBUH daily for a true inspiration like Steve Miller!!!!!

The Henry Family should get first dibs on ANY monies collected from the sale of the joint or the personal assets of Rick and Lisa Rizzolo. The second person who should receive monetary compensation is Buffalo Jim Barrier. Without him, this case would have never seen daylight. He has suffered monetary damages far in excess of the one million that probably has NOT been deposited in an escrow account as ordered by Judge Gonzales. Not only did he suffer monetary damages due to loss of business, his family collapsed before his eyes due to the harassment by Rizzolo and his hired thugs. I am a personal witness to that as I have been harassed by Rizzolo. his management thugs, and the club goons as well. One time needing to be assisted off the roof by the LVMPD. It was obvious to me that the LVMPD was in Rizzolo's pocket during this event. Or, I should say that the officer in charge was. The LVMPD as a whole is a first rate organization.
Monies (IF collected) should be distributed to those persons who suffered DIRECT harm from Rizzolo and the Crazy Horse II. The city of Las Vegas, and Mafioso Wannabe Don Oscar Goodman, the alleged mayor, do not deserve to pocket a dime as they are the ones responsible for allowing the carnage to exist and continue ad nauseum. As for the vitrolic "Common Man" ...You have a serious condition. It is known as an "Anal/Cranial Inversion." I suggest you seek professional help as soon as possible.
Miller....Keep up the good work!

That is my opinion,

Mike

Bob Beers wrote on August 23, 2007 08:50 AM: Regarding Common Man's complaint. It is misplaced and considerably ill-informed. A newspaper's forum is exactly the place to voice opinions. There's a document called the US Constitution a few of us still adhere to, you might try reading it sometime. Rizzolo, like others who consider themselves above the law has found he is not. I applaud Mr. Miller's integrity and Judge Pro's honesty.

Batista wrote on August 22, 2007 09:21 PM: Steve Miller should also be commended for leaving the Las Vegas Tribune. He was the only thoughtful and coherent writer on that paper, in my opinion. I believe the editor Rolando Larraz writes as sloppy as he thinks.

I believe the Las Vegas Tribune Editor Rolando Larraz was convicted of a drug crime, and was also charged with writing a bad check. Whatever happened to that criminal case.

Court records indicate that Las Vegas Tribune Editor Rolando Larraz has some upcoming criminal charges facing him. September 21, 2007 in Small claims court, case number 07A002661, with criminal defense attorney Kevin Kelly representing him, and a new felony arraignment before Judge Joe Bonaventure, Jr., on Nov. 15, 2007, in case number 04F00808X.

No RJ stories on this? I remember reading in City Life when Cathy Scott wrote about Rolando Larraz bouncing a check, Rolando Larraz reportedly called Cathy Scott a bitch at the courthouse cafe.

Golda wrote on August 22, 2007 09:16 PM: I agree with you FastTracker. I do not know, nor have I ever met Mr. Miller, but his tenacious columns exposing corruption deserve kudos. Michael McDonald should be next. In my opinion, when something does not pass the smell test (i.e. the McDonald's and Atkinson-Gates of the world living in mansions on county salaries) then the people involved must be investigated.

Maybe, someone will look at the Fau/crazy horse case that has been closed for years and ask Nancy Saitta why it says "Jury Trial in Progress Access Denied" Maybe, Judge Saitta is trying to enter the case in the Guinness Book for longest jury trial. If Guinness pays Saitta could split the proceeds with Rizzolo to help pay for his restitution. I'm sure the RJ could get her to explain.

FastTracker wrote on August 22, 2007 11:08 AM: Common man, who appointed you governor of this message board?

Steve Miller has done more than anyone in this community to get rid of joints that operate the way CHII did under Rizzolo.

He's entitled to express his opinions in this forum, every bit as much as you are.
