Online gambling bust

[Talking Poker]

At first, I thought this was talking about going after people USING the site... but it sounds like it was going after the people RUNNING the site.

But still... damn:

-----
Search warrants executed in several locations resulted in the seizure of gambling records, computers and hundreds of millions of dollars in property.

The property includes four Manhattan condominiums, millions of dollars in cash, tens of thousands of dollars worth of casino chips from the Bellagio casino in Las Vegas, art, jewelry, gold coins, and a football signed by the 1969 New York Jets following their Super Bowl victory.

The scheme involved placing sports bets through bookies via a secure Internet site. The bets were taken on all kinds of sports, including football, baseball, basketball, hockey, car racing, and golf.

The charges include enterprise corruption, money laundering and promoting gambling.
