New Force Patrolling Casinos

INDIANA As reported by the Times-Mail: "The deeper Indiana gets into the gambling business, the more it will need top-notch security officers in casinos.

"Gov. Mitch Daniels has taken a good first step in taking Indiana State Police troopers out of the gambling houses and putting them back into communities and on highways, where they best serve their fundamental roles.

"The second step - filling slots for security officers who work for the Indiana Gaming Commission - is well under way.

"...Indiana's state police officers have earned a reputation for integrity, no matter whether they are patrolling highways or working in casinos. The new force, working under the gaming commission, is on the right start to earn that same level of respect.
