According to pay head sources, BetOnSports.com founder Gary Kaplan is out on the streets again after completing his prison sentence for what was considered the biggest North American facing sports betting business of its kind when it was operating at its strongest. Although nobody really knows where he is now or what he is doing, it is interesting that he is now out on the streets after just over one year in prison. Kaplan was sentenced as one of nearly a dozen executives that were indicted in July of 2006, just prior to the Unlawful Internet Gambling Enforcement Act that was passed in October of that year.

Kaplan was considered one of the best at what he did, but eventually it got up to him and he was busted. On the run and with his whereabouts unknown, police tracked him down to the Dominican Republic, where he was captured and placed in jail after being exported back to St. Louis. Former CEO David Carruthers served an even longer period of time because of a similar role in the fraud, but most of it was in his home under house arrest, and he too was also recently released. Customers have come forward with receipts for money owed and settled at between 3 to 5 percent owed, but this will serve as yet another example of how important it is to pay attention to the sportsbook reviews, and only invest in the most trusted sports betting sites.
