The <a href=\"https:\/\/lasvegassun.com\/news\/1997\/may\/27\/7-year-old-raped-before-she-was-murdered\/\">case of Sherrice Iverson<\/a> who was strangled in <strong>Primm casino<\/strong> saw the accused 18-year old <strong>Jeremy Strohmeyer<\/strong> placing blame on the Nevada casino industry for allowing kids to be present at gaming floors, though he was subsequently found guilty of the crime.<\/p>\n<p>According to him, the crime might have been avoided if casinos hadn\u2019t sold alcohol to him at 3 a.m and allowed him to remain on its premises. In the aftermath of the horrific case, a number of tough measures were rolled out to keep away underage visitors from gaming floors.<\/p>\n<p>The gaming arcades at <a href=\"https:\/\/www.top10casinowebsites.net\/nevada-casinos-witness-a-dip-in-revenue-in-february\">Nevada\u2019s casinos<\/a> have a 10 p.m. deadline on weekdays and midnight at weekends for children under the age of 18. Additionally, the law requires a security guard to check all arcades at least four times every hour or monitor via installed security cameras. <\/p>\n<p><strong>Las Vegas Review-Journal<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><center><iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/a_QpLVXXOfY\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/center><\/p>\n<p>Nevada gaming law bars anyone below 21 years from betting or loitering at a location where any sort of wagering games like a race book or sports pool is being conducted. Employees, dealers and licensees can be charged with a misdemeanor if they allow an underage visitor to gamble.<\/p>\n<p>Since casinos can lose their licenses if found in violation, officials have been exploring several preventive measures. <strong>Virginia Valentine<\/strong>, president of the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.nevadaresorts.org\/\">Nevada Resort Association<\/a>, said that most casinos were using sophisticated surveillance cameras to improve monitoring of underage visitors to casino floors.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Station Casinos Inc<\/strong>. has adopted a slightly different approach. The casino chain which markets itself as a family entertainment destination has introduced new methods to protect children and allow adults to gamble freely. Station spokeswoman <strong>Lori Nelson<\/strong> said that if any underage individual is found on the gaming floor by a staff member, they are taken immediately to a security counter where they are reunited with their family. Station Casinos has also partnered with <a href=\"http:\/\/www.kidsquest.com\/\">Kids Quest<\/a>, a Minnesota-based firm that offers hourly day care. Currently this service is available across six of its properties. <\/p>\n<p>The chief operating officer of New Horizon Kids Quest Inc <strong>Troy Dunkley<\/strong> stated that there are 19 Kids Quest facilities operational in twelve states right now. Each facility offers visiting families the option of leaving their child in a highly secure place with a wide variety of amenities like play structures, small gyms and simple arcade games, allowing the parents to enjoy the properties\u2019 gaming facilities without worries.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Protecting underage visitors has been a major priority for Nevada\u2019s casinos ever since a 7-year-old child was killed at a casino in 1997.
