Darryl Greene, a partner of the Aqueduct Entertainment Group (AEG), left the group as a result of over $1 million in back taxes owed to the state by companies with which he is associated. This announcement does not bear favorably on AEG's public perception, given recent claims that it won the Aqueduct bid as a result of political ties. AEG will not be looking for new investors to assume Greene's 0.6 percent share.
