Internet Gambling Site Founders Busted
Federal prosecutors are keeping up the heat on the two founders of a company that processes Internet gambling transactions. The two former heads of the Neteller P.L.C. company have been arrested and charged with laundering billions of dollars in gambling proceeds. The charges against John David Lefebvre and Stephen Eric Lawrence are contained in a pair of criminal complaints unsealed in U.S. District Court this week. Among the claims made by federal prosecutors is that the men knew when they took their company public that its activities were illegal. Both men could face up to 20 years in prison if convicted.
