Law enforcement's strange idea of legal
Published:  28 September, 2009

Texas law enforcement agencies throughout the state are reselling seized eight-liner machines. Confiscated from allegedly illegal game rooms, these machines are then sold back to the original operators in those same game rooms or other venues. Houston's local Channel 11 news reports that some of the confiscated machines are auctioned on eBay for $250 and up.

Eight liners are slot-type videogames. Their operation is legal as long as small noncash prizes are awarded. However, the Texas attorney general, plus individual county district attorneys and police chiefs, charge that thousands of illegal game rooms across Texas offer illegal cash payoffs or award excessively generous merchandise vouchers.
