Robert Eon Marshall, 58, who pleaded guilty in January to mail fraud, was sentenced Friday.
Let’s not forget that no one has ever been indicted on “operating a gambling website” – charges are usually money laundering, wire/mail fraud, racketeering etc.
While I do believe that he was not punished for the gambling websites, handing down 10 year sentence to 58-year-old man is just mean. Texas is quite anal for most forms of gambling, online or offline.
the headlines of this news scared us too, however it is completely different from what internet gambling affiliates do so there should be no worries.
It’s a white label casino, and it’s exactly what internet gambling affiliates do.
Either way, it appears to be an old 2003 case, but still quite disturbing.
