John "Jack" Miller applied his first career in Law Enforcement
and Criminal Investigations to his second career of Casino Games and their protection. Jack was a Special Agent with the Air
Force Office of Special Investigations (OSI) conducting investigations of felony crimes. These investigations also included
counter-intelligence and counter-espionage investigations.
After retiring from the military, he joined the Clark County
District Attorneys office as a Special Investigator of "white collar" and conspiratorial crimes. He worked with undercover
teams from the local Police and the FBI conducting burglary stings. He then joined the Nevada State Gaming Control Board (GCB)
as an Enforcement Agent. He was certified by Nevada State and Federal Courts as an Expert witness during trials of gambling
cheats.
John “Jack” Miller is the author of Cold War Warrior, All Crooks Welcome and Master Cheat! According to
the book description of the true story, All
Crooks Welcome, “the Las Vegas police are plagued with burglaries. Two detectives devise an ingenious scheme
to combat the thieves and burglars. Pose as fences and buy the evidence from the crooks. With the help of the District Attorney’s
office and the FBI, the sting is on. Join with the undercover law enforcement personnel as they solve the problems associated
with a scheme never tried before. Be there as the crooks arrive with their ill-gotten gains. Enjoy the wrap-up party where
the thieves expect one thing and get another.”
One reader said of All
Crooks Welcome, “John Miller was an investigator with the Clark County (NV) DA's office. Along with
other members of law enforcement they initiated the first sting - buying stolen property from the crooks so the crooks could
be prosecuted at a later date. At times the crooks will make you laugh and at other times you want to jump into the pages
and bring the crooks to justice yourself.”
