The 1992 Stardust Casino Heist suspect William John Brennan

Recommended Posts

On September 22nd 1992 Stardust bookkeeper William John Brennan a native of Palmertown, PA walked out of the casino with a bag containing $500k worth in cash and chips never to be heard from again. Fellow employees of the Stardust complained he as hanging out with a shady gambler near the time of his heist and disappearance. No trace has ever been found of Brennan. His cat was missing at his apartment. The main theories were he went on the run and got away with it or he was killed for the money shortly after the heist.

Hey Lucas, this is an interesting story and it seems like something would have been discovered by now. I believe that he is just another individual taking a permanent dirt nap out in the desert some where Las Vegas. There are so many people out there taking similar naps for the reason ( Stupidity ). However, it's also possible he did escape and is living under an assumed name somewhere. But with the story of the Gambler who he became friends with and who possibly had ties to organized crime, a small fish like him would only be a possible lose end. 

Plus $500,000 isn't that much money especially if you had to split it, and it would not have lasted a life time. So, at least to me it seems there is little doubt that he most likely didn't survive the event. 

Thanks for sharing I enjoyed the story very much!:tu:
