St. Louis County Prosecutor’s Office

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE March 4, 2026

ST. LOUIS COUNTY, MO – Missouri Attorney General Catherine Hanaway
and St. Louis County Prosecuting Attorney Melissa Price Smith
today announced a coordinated enforcement initiative to remove illegal gambling devices from businesses throughout St. Louis County.
Following recent federal court rulings confirming that unregulated “gray market” machines—often found in gas stations, bars, and convenience stores—constitute illegal gambling devices under Missouri law, both offices are issuing a final warning to all owners and operators.
The Enforcement Directive Any person or business in possession of an illegal gambling machine in St. Louis County that meets the definition of a “gambling device” under RSMo Chapter 572 is hereby advised that they must have these machines removed or otherwise permanently disabled by June 1, 2026.
Failure to comply with this deadline will result in prosecution under the laws of the State of Missouri.
“When businesses profit from illegal gambling, they are not only ignoring the law, they put our communities at risk by creating magnets for additional criminal activity,” said Attorney General Hanaway. “My office applauds St. Louis County for upholding the rule of law and we will work collaboratively with local officials to hold any business accountable for engaging in unlawful activity”.
St. Louis County Prosecuting Attorney Melissa Price Smith added: “Our priority is the safety and integrity of our community. By setting this June 1 deadline, we are providing a clear window for voluntary compliance. After that date, my office will move forward with criminal charges against those who continue to violate state gambling statutes”. Background on RSMo Chapter 572 Under Missouri law, a gambling device is defined as any machine on which a player risks money on the outcome of a game of chance and where the result cannot be fully determined by the player’s skill. Recent judicial decisions have clarified that many “no-
chance” or “video lottery” terminals currently in operation fall strictly within this prohibited category.

Congratulations to Linda Hardey for five years of service with the Missouri Gaming Commission! “Linda Hardey is our administrative support assistant at Isle of Capri Boonville. She is easy to talk to, friendly, and cheerful.  Linda was born in Germany and has lived all over the world.  Linda also serves as a firefighter for the Cooper County Fire District. We congratulate Linda on five years with MGC” ~LeAnn McCarthy, Licensing and Discipline Manager.

Linda is shown receiving a Certificate of Appreciation from Deputy Director Kevin Bond during the February Commission meeting.
