The federal government has added a bribery charge to the indictment against former NBA player Terry Rozier. According to ESPN's David Purdum, Rozier allegedly agreed to a $100,000 bribe in exchange for manipulating his performance in an NBA game. noplasticplease.life
Rozier's attorney, Jim Trusty, responded to the new charges, stating that they confirm their motion to dismiss was "righteous." Rozier has argued that the federal fraud statute requires deprivation of an actual property right, which he claims doesn't apply in his case. The government's fraud theory is based on Rozier sharing inside information with someone who used it to make a winning wager, while failing to disclose the same information to sportsbooks.
