NASIKOP silang Portland Trail Blazers coach Chauncey Billups ug Miami Heat guard Terry Rozier sa Federal Bureau of Investigation kon FBI!
Lakip sila sa 30 ka tawo nga nasikop tungod sa giingong pagkalambigit sa halapad nga illegal gambling operation sa Amerika.
Matud sa mga otoridad nga nalambigit ang duruha sa operasyon sa inside sports betting ug pagpan-limbong sa poker games nga konektado sa nga grupo sa organisadong krimen.
“..But as you now know, individuals such as Chauncey Billups, Damon Jones and Terry Rozier were taken into custody today, former current NBA players and coaches. What you don’t know is that this is an illegal gambling operation and sports rigging operation that spanned the course of years. The FBI led a coordinated takedown across 11 states to arrest over 30 individuals today responsible for this case, which is very much ongoing.
Not only did we crack into the fraud that these perpetrators committed on the grand stage of the NBA, but we also entered and executed a system of justice against La Casa Nostra. And the fraud is mind boggling. It’s not hundreds of dollars.
It’s not thousands of dollars. It’s not tens of thousands of dollars. It’s not even millions of dollars.
We’re talking about tens of millions of dollars in fraud and theft and robbery across a multi-year investigation. And we could not have done it without our interagency partners that are before us today..”
Tipik sa pamahayag sa FBI.
Samtang, gi-suspenso una sa NBA silang Billups at Rozier samtang nagpadayon ang imbestigasyon sa kaso.
