Very Interesting Billy Walters Article

[SPX]

Here's what I'm not totally clear about and what I don't think the article made clear: Why do they keep investigating him? Is it just because he has a lot of money and a lot of it was acquired via gambling enterprises? Or is there some hard, solid evidence to warrant the suspicion?

It seems like after this long, with them bringing so many charges and nothing ever sticking, that they'd just quit fucking with him. I mean, at what point does it become harassment?

Every time he calls a runner and tells them what to bet its a violation of the Wire Act, and they must think he's not paying enough taxes, so he's laundering the money somewhere. They wouldn't just harrass him for no reason. Its not illegal to bet or win a lot of money.

It's a violation of the Wire Act just to say, "Hey, take that money I gave you and bet it on such-and-such team"?
