Given the technology of the time, there was no tracking, there was no GPS, basically all we had was a radio. And from that point, we just started doing a sweep for the vehicle. Stewart: Another armored vehicle came to pick us up. Stewart and his partner, stranded at the casino, placed a worried call to the office. Stewart: Is she okay? Did she get lost? But then you start thinking about, could she have possibly gotten in an accident? Stewart and his partner waited, and waited, and began to worry. Her job, in part, was to watch the couriers’ backs. And at that last one was the exit to where Heather was supposed to pick us up.Morrison: So you got to the end of that run?Stewart: Got to the end of the run and no truck. Stewart: It was basically like a point A to point B type where we would start at one ATM and just work our way through until we got to the last one. Heather’s job was to pick them up about 20 minutes later. Stewart and his partner picked up the first of the money bags and walked out of the truck into the casino. Stewart: Fridays were normally our busiest day because obviously we’re preparing the casinos along the Strip for the busy tourist weekend.Morrison: So there would be more money?Stewart: Absolutely. It was chockfull of cash to keep ATMs going over the weekend. when the armored van driven by the woman in the dress shoes pulled up to the Circus Circus, the first of the Friday stops. At the time, we just thought maybe she was going out to dinner or something after work and needed to get changed quick. And that particular morning, she had a dressier shoe on. She would wear more of a rugged work boot-type thing because she knew she was either gonna be on her feet all day or driving all day. Keith Morrison: Do you remember anything unusual about that particular day?Stewart: The shoes that she was wearing, they weren’t the normal shoe that she would wear to work.
