City Confidential: Las Vegas on AllMovie

A stool pigeon falls victim to the underground in the A&E program City Confidential: Las Vegas. It's never surprising when dead bodies turn up in the city on the desert. After all, Vegas was built on Mafia money as a haven for gambling. But, Larry Volk's death was unexpected even considering his informer status. For years, Volk worked as a programmer and his projects were housed in every casino in town. It was Volk's job to fix slot machines so that they never paid out. When the government discovered this million-dollar indiscretion, Volk volunteered inside information thereby signing his own death warrant. A&E details the Las Vegas scandal that unveiled a whole network of corruption in this one-hour presentation.
