Under the terms of the deal, Gaming Realms will supply its recently introduced 90-ball bingo game to Pala’s online bingo brand – PalaBingoUSA.

Pala Interactive has previously been granted the necessary transactional waiver by the New Jersey Division of Gaming Enforcement for the provision of gambling services within the state.

Pala Interactive is New Jersey’s subsidiary of the Pala Band of Mission Indians, a California-based federally recognized tribe, known to be one of the major providers of gambling options in California. Under the terms of their recently signed agreement, Gaming Realms will deliver its bingo game to Pala Interactive’s online bingo website and will receive a portion of the annual revenue generated by the brand.

Good for you pala

It might be if Pala got anything out of it. All the money that comes out of Pala Interactive is going to the Pala EC. No other tribal members participate. It is a scam and just another one of the ways that Robert Smith uses to divert revenue that should be for the tribal members into his own pockets.

If that's the case, you have a very dumb tribal membership. What's to stop him from doing the same with the casino revenue? You can bet that he will say they aren't making money off that dumb RV park and the per cap will have to come down again. Don't you guys feel dumb letting him rape you without Vaseline?

You probably are new to the situation at Pala. The Pala EC is the Pala Gaming Authority. The Pala General Council approved the Pala Gaming Authority Ordinance which was explained to the General Council as a requirement in order to obtain financing. In a sense this was true since the Anchor Gaming Management Contract had a provision in which it was necessary to create a Gaming Authority. In hindsight it now is evident that the creation of the Pala Gaming Authority was put in the Management Contract so that the Pala EC could assign the ownership and control of management to the itself when the Management Contract expired.

Of course the Management Contract did not expire. Anchor Gaming was bought out by International Gaming Technology (IGT) and part of the deal was for Pala to purchase Anchor Gaming's share of the Pala Casino. That happened in 2002 only a year and a half after the Management Contract was approved by the NIGC.

So the Pala Band of Mission Indians became the sole owner of the Pala Casino and the Pala EC assigned ownership to the Pala Gaming Authority through authority delegated in the Pala Gaming Authority Ordinance. In other words the Pala EC gave the Casino to themselves. Now Robert Smith has control of the gross revenue of the Pala Casino Resort and Spa. As long as the Casino makes the monthly payment to the Band then it all looks legitimate.

In reality Chairman Smith uses the gross revenue like his own personal income. He spends it on whatever he wants. The RV Park is one example. The Band did not approve this project. Robert Smith approved it. He found a contractor that was willing to charge double the price to build it, and then he and the contractor split the overage. It is a sweet deal for him, and it gave him an opportunity to pretend that there are upgrades at the Casino. The revenue paid to the Band does not increase though, and the tribal members don't get any extra money.

I am not a Pala Member though. Robert Smith disenrolled the Brittain family members because they opposed the mismanagement (read embezzlement) of the revenue. The Band is supposed to get a minimum of 60% of the gross revenue. Instead they get about half of that if they are lucky. The other 30% goes to the Chairman. How much money is that? Only the Chairman knows for sure. The estimate is somewhere between $150 to $300 million dollars a year. It depends on how much the Casino really makes.

Now you can say Pala members are stupid. They don't care. They get their per capita checks every month and have enough cash to buy drugs and ammo.

What was the outcome of the Trujillo case? I don't mean the murder case.

One thing fatso can't get away with is Federal tax evasion. There has to be a paper trail and he will get caught. Like Salgado at Saboba, someone will tip off the right people. But the question becomes, why do the tribe members bend over to him so much? They stand to double or triple their monthly checks without him.

So what happens if Robert Smith gets indicted for tax evasion? A big fine. Guess who will pay that? If you answered PBMI then you get a gold star. So the Chairman steals the money, gets indicted, pleads guilty to avoid jail time, and then takes the money out of the Band's budget to pay the fine. Can you say reduction in per capita?

They can pay him now or they can pay him later. Oh wait...They are already doing both.

No decision from the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals in the Aguayo v. Jewell case yet. I am getting curious as to the long deliberation time. Could it actually be that the Court is considering an option beside upholding the lower court dismissal? It is starting to look that way.

True the BIA are just record keepers no real authority and totally corrupt and complicit to corrupt tribal leaders. They do not help the native people in any way shape or form. They only do whats easiest for them. They do not help the disenrollee's because they are supportive or bought off by the corrupt tribal leaders that disenroll or if they did step in and do something then that means they would have to step in for all tribes disenrolling to verify civil rights were followed and the disenrollment's were just and not to get rid of political opposition to stay in power, get rid of percap payments or shut out tribal members who ask too many questions the tribal leaders do not want to answer. That would be more work than the BIA would want to actual have to do. So my questions is how can people go about trying to shut down or get rid off an agency like the BIA? Start a petition with a certain amount of signatures? Is it even possible?

Is this why we now have to give recipes to pala the tribal treasure in the amount of 3500 each year or risk having per cap dropped 3500 because we are supplying Robert's cover with recipes to cover his tax fraud. ? I personally don't think it's any business of the treasures what or how I spend my money each month. But if I don't give up my receipts they will take 3500 out of my check wow ok
