In condemning the casino’s safety record, the Council cited numerous tragedies to befall the casino in the past four years alone, including multiple murders, former owner Monica Mancuso’s lethal plunge from the roof after being swept away by a freak gust of wind, and the sudden, tragic death of former action star Jean-Claude Van Damme.
