The six week G-sting trial in Las Vegas will conclude this week with closing arguments. The trial has included tape from FBI wiretaps, undercover videos, and testimony about politicians and [tag]bribes[/tag]. Former Clark County commissioners Dario Herrera and Mary Kincaid-Chauncey are on trial for federal charges of [tag]conspiracy[/tag], [tag]wire fraud[/tag] and [tag]extortion[/tag] under color of official right.

The witnesses included former commission Erin Kenny (who has pleaded guilty) and strip club owner Michael Galardi, who both testified for the prosecution. Galardi said that he gave bags of cash to politicians, in addition to sex from strippers, dancers, and other club employees.

Herrera admitted to having sex behind the bushes with one of Gilardi’s employees during a golf outing. He also said he received lap dances at one of Galardi’s clubs and had an affair with one of Galardi’s employees.

Galardi testified that he had sex with Kenny at least six times, which she denies. He also said that he paid Herrera $200,000 from 1999 through 2003 and $85,000 to Kincaid-Chauncey. Galardi’s goal was to make Jaguars, a strip club he was opening in 2002, the biggest and best in Las Vegas. He said he needed the county commission’s help to do that.
