2/ Around the same time Trump was trying to gain a gaming license for the Casino he wanted so badly, something else happened.
Later it would be investigated by the State of NJ Gaming Enforcement Division.
They were investigating Trump for lots of stuff.

3/ One of those they investigated was related to his wonderful dad, Frederick Christ Trump Sr.
He died in 1999. But in 1992, it was alleged that Fred Trump made an illegal chip purchase at Trump Castle.
Why?

4/ He spent $3.3 Million of someone's money, via an attorney, to purchase chips so that the Castle had enough money to make an $18 Million bond payment. He gave the Castle a certified check from Manufacturers Hanover Trust Co
#CORRECTION - the Chip purchase was in 1990

5/ Not only is this illegal put allows Trump to be the 1st person to be able to reclaim funds ahead of other creditors.
You don't circumvent bank agreements like this.

6/ The Attorney did all the work. He established a front money account for Fred and when it was ready, he withdrew $3.35Million. This was December 17, 1990.
7/ The same day, a Castle dealer at a blackjack table paid out the entire amount in gray, $5,000 chips. Based on the investigation, no gambling took place by anyone..
The next day, December 18, $150K was wired to the front money account.

8/ That same day, a pit clerk made out a customer withdrawal form to Howard Snyder and he received $150K in chips.
The Gaming division determined it was a violation of N.J.S.A 5:12-95.12a.
So what do you think happened to Fred Trump?

9/ Well, The Castle entered into a settlement agreement with the division and was imposed a fine of just $65,000.
That's alot of money being washed, for so little.
Conclusion: Investigated, settled, no additional Investigation needed.
