Evening Edition: NBA Players Arrested In FBI Gambling Probe
Description
Portland Trail Blazers head coach Chauncey Billups and Miami Heat guard Terry Rozier were among at least 31 people arrested as part of a widespread FBI investigation into an illegal sports betting ring. The federal investigation involved multiple agencies, including the NYPD, as they targeted the La Cosa Nostra crime families in separate operations across several states. Officials said Billups, Rozier and Jones face charges of conspiracy to commit wire fraud and conspiracy to commit money laundering.
FOX's John Saucier speaks with Paul Mauro, attorney, former NYPD Inspector and FOX News legal and criminal analyst, who says he is not surprised as the gambling business is a prime target for crime families.
