ILLEGAL SPORTSBETTING CASE BUSTED

Illegal operation handled 50 000 calls in a seven month period

Associated Press reports what appears to have been a sting operation by federal authorities that resulted in three family members being indicted this week in he Greenbelt U.S. District Court for allegedly running a gambling business out of Montgomery County.

Herbert Meyers (60) of Potomac, his 69-year-old brother-in-law Robert Levine of Montgomery Village and Levine's 45-year-old son, Steven Levine of Montgomery Village, were all charged with conducting an illegal gambling business and conspiracy. Robert Levine and Meyers were also indicted for money laundering.

Meyers' brother, Howard Meyers, was indicted last month on gambling charges.

Federal prosecutors said that between March 2001 and January 2004, the three took bets on football games, basketball games and other sports. They advertised by word of mouth and pamphlets, establishing a toll-free number that took in more than 50,000 calls in a seven month period between 2002 and 2003.
