Lost a million dollars gambling but it was other owner's money and was selling horses multiple times.

Ripped off some top sportsmen over there as well as his friends. He is going to prison although some of the owners he stiffed are sticking by him citing his addiction as the cause.

He doesn't need to worry. A few of his brothers in arms over here like Ryder, Norman, Daley, Croghan, Pelling, Cassar, Tritton, or Harder will set him up with a 40 horse operation and a 3 page spread in Hoof Beats or HRU praising his horsemanship and humanity, followed by interviews with Wendy Ross and Dave Brower, not once mentioning any fraud.

Nothing would surprise me.
