The VegasVegas online casino posts entertainment propositions like American Idol, political elections and celebrity trials. VegasVegas customers don't want to bet on speeding tickets or misdemeanor theft. They want murder. They're star-obsessed like the rest of society. Athlete, musician, actor, socialite --- the more the victim or alleged perpetrator shows up on TMZ, the more money bettors fork out.

The movie director Andrew Marvel is on trial for murdering his wife, Audrey, in their summer home in Greensboro, Vermont. Audrey's blood was all over Andrew's clothes, which the police found at the bottom of the lake behind the Marvel house. Andrew's wild account of where he'd been the night of the murder sounds like it was ghost written by the prosecutor.

Most VegasVegas customers know a sure thing when they see one and bet on conviction. But a local bettor puts $500 on dropped charges at 125 to 1 odds. Two days later an unshakable alibi surfaces proving the movie director couldn't have murdered his wife. All charges are dropped.

The casino owner, Jackson Oliver, suspects the bettor of involvement in the murder, making the bet fraudulent. Before he pays out the winnings, Jackson goes to Vermont to investigate.
