Atlantic City Casino Eye in the Sky used to Women Watch

An employee of Caesars Atlantic City Hotel Casino had his license suspended for 20 days following accusations he used the cameras in the sky to check out women.

Former supervisor James Doherty was using his serveillance cameras to watch women in the casino, instead of monitoring the gambling going on, state regulators concluded on Wednesday.

This is just the most recent news in the case, already Caesars had been ordered to pay a $185,000 fine for charges that four of its employees used cameras to zero in on women in the casino wearing low cut blouses and revealing clothing.

Former supervisor Robert Swan was cleared of the charges, but the gaming commision voted 4-0 to sanction Doherty.

The reason for the sanctions were that "Doherty's conduct was particularly serious because by engaging in improper surveillance activity he failed to perform required surveillance functions, thereby creating a risk to the integrity of gaming operations", said Commissioner Michael A. Fedorko, who conducted a hearing on the charges.

Doherty has been fired by Caesars along with two camera operators, Donald Smith and Paul Arambulo. Arambulo settled the charges by agreeing to a five day suspension of his gaming license. Smith has yet to respond to the charges.
