San Jose: Casino employee arrested, accused of embezzling gaming chips

SAN JOSE — An employee at Casino M8trix has been arrested on allegations that she schemed with her husband to methodically embezzle gaming chips from her workplace to the tune of hundreds of thousands of dollars, authorities said.

San Jose police announced the arrests Wednesday in a news release detailing an investigation prompted by a May 23 call, reporting that a woman working at the gaming business off Airport Parkway had been pocketing chips — then handing them off to her husband to cash out.
