The Las Vegas district attorney says Pacman Jones' $20,000 gambling debt to a casino has been paid off, allowing the DA to recall a request for an arrest warrant for the suspended NFL player. Jones found a way to pay off his debts within 24 hours of a criminal complaint being filed, and the bad check case is now closed, Clark County DA David Roger said Friday. Court documents filed Friday showed the DA was seeking a felony arrest warrant for the 24-year-old Jones unless he made good on three casino markers worth $20,000 he received last Sept. 3 at Caesars Palace. In Nevada, unpaid casino markers, or loans to gamblers, are treated as bad checks and are turned over to the district attorney for prosecution. Jones paid a total of $21,675, including $1,675 for DA's office processing fees and penalties.
