Richard Kurt Giebelhaus, 58, faces one count of running an illegal gaming house inside the Revs Bowling building in Burnaby between July 10, 2019 to Aug. 26, 2021.
A 58-year-old man has yet to make his first court appearance after being charged with running an illegal gaming operation out of a Burnaby bowling alley building.
“Information was received that an alleged illegal gaming operation was being conducted within the Revs Bowling building which initiated an investigation,” CFSEU spokesperson Sgt. Brenda Winpenny told the NOW in an emailed statement. “Once the investigation reaches a point that the required evidence has been collected the investigative team drafts a disclosure package that is presented to Crown counsel,” Winpenny said. “Crown counsel then has the onerous task of reviewing all the disclosure material and deciding what charges if any are appropriate and meet the charge approval threshold. This can take some time.”
CFSEU’s Joint Illegal Gaming Investigation Team was in Burnaby just last month to execute a search warrant at Big Shots Café in relation to an illegal gaming investigation.In July 2020, officers located “several individuals participating in activity that appeared to be that of an illegal gaming house” in the restaurant, according to an earlier CFSEU news release.
