Details
Minetos' involvement with the the State v. Bancroft and Covington case started when they moved in with their step-sibling Chase Covington after they lost ownership of Chuggie's Bar.

In November 2014, around Thanksgiving, Covington invited Bancroft over to their house in order to discuss Bancroft's proposal for a new casino. While Minetos was present for the entire meeting, they were mostly distracted by trying to impress Bancroft with their bar-tending skills in hopes of getting a job at Bancroft's new casino. Regardless, they overheard some of the conversation and saw some actions made by the two defendants which heavily implied that a plan for a bribe was being made.

Minetos can also testify to the fact that Covington accepted gifts from other high profile Midlands business people and politicians in exchange for favors. However they lament the fact that Covington didn't use any of their influence to stop Minetos from losing their liquor license. Regardless, Minetos believes that Covington is an honest politician, and that more people like them deserve to be in Washington, D.C.

Trivia

 * What caused Minetos to lose their liquor license and ownership of Chuggie's Bar was the death of Vanessa Sullivan, the daughter of the most prominent prosecutor in Midlands state. This death was explored in the 2011-2012 AMTA case State v. Dawson.
 * In MTS v. Kosack, Harper Villafana refers to Minetos as female by describing Minetos as Covington's sister.
 * Chuggie's Bar is mentioned in the 2017-2018 AMTA case State v. Hendricks. The victim in the case, Kerry Bell-Leon, was at the bar about a half an hour before they were attacked in their apartment.
