BetOnSports Fired CEO, David Carruthers, Wont Be Moved To Texas For Weeks Says His Attorney Tim Evans
July 26, 2006
EOG was very fortunate to contact David Carruther's attorney this morning just before he was flying out to see another client later today.
We spoke with David Carruther's attorney this morning, Tim Evans, about the Betonsports indictments involving his client.
Tim was very candid and stated, "I have never been involved in any online gambling case before. This is the first one."
When asked about a time frame as to when his client, David Carruthers will be transferred from Texas to Missouri, Evans replied, " This is not going to take days, but weeks!" He explained that it is quite normal for our legal system to take this lengthy time period before moving an inmate out of Texas.
When asked if BetonSports would still indemnify Carruthers in light of them firing him yesterday, Evans refused to comment.
Finally, Evans did admit to speaking with Carruthers' wife just yesterday as well as Melinda Sarafa from the powerful law firm of Zuckerman & Spaeder. He said, I have known Melinda for many, many years."
To conclude, when asked if Carruthers would be seeking legal counsel from Missouri, Evans responded, "We are definitely going to hire St. Louis Counsel!"
If convicted of all charges, Carruthers could be spending up to twenty years in prison.
