Queens District Attorney Richard Brown said Wednesday that bookies used Web sites to collect wagers on professional and college basketball and football and professional baseball and hockey.
Investigators, lead by the NYPD’s organized crime division, arrested the defendants on enterprise corruption charges. Three of the defendants are New York City employees: a firefighter, a sanitation worker and a highway repairman.
They are accused of operating in New York, Nevada, Arizona, Florida and Louisiana.
