Tigua casino schemes amid lobbying scandal and busts
The Tigua speaking Rock casino near the Texas border fueled a boom and bust cycle for the Ysleta del Sur Pueblo from the mid 1990s to 2002. Abramoff and Scanlon faced federal fraud indictments over deals to reopen the casino and fund Republican campaigns, with emails alleging pressure to close and later reopen operations.

Plano man claims Elvis tapes may reveal future king voice
Plano resident Steve Lawrence says six reel-to-reel recordings may feature a young Elvis Presley, backed by eyewitness accounts and a local Memphis studio link through uncle Ronald Wallace. Experts dispute the claim, noting Elvis is unlikely on the tapes and warning of publicity motives amid Elvis Week 1977 anniversary.
