Claim
The source says Maheu ran Hughes's Nevada operations for about 15 years. The Las Vegas Sun obituary gives 13 years of service in all, with the Las Vegas period running from 1966 until he lost the job in 1970.
The Las Vegas Sun obituary (5 Aug 2008) gives 13 years of service in all. Maheu moved to Las Vegas in 1966 when Hughes did, and lost the job in 1970, so the Nevada period was about four years.
