Binions // Nevada // 53 - a podcast by Megan and Hanna Hawkins

Benny Binion was an American gambling icon, career criminal, and convicted murderer who established illegal gambling operations.  He moved his operations to Las Vegas and opened Binion's Horseshoe Casino.  When he opened his casino, he saw immediate success and this upset everyone in the gambling scene.  Benny eventually lost his gambling license and his sons had to step up and help run the casino.  A man named Marvin Shumate set up a kidnapping/murder plot for Benny's son, Ted Binion.  They ended up backing out of the plan, but Ted ended up being murdered later in his life and there may be buried treasures of his that haven't been found yet.
