ORLAND PARK, IL — An Orland Park man pleaded guilty in federal court Tuesday, for conducting an illegal sports gambling business and laundering the proceeds through an offshore company, according to the Northern District of Illinois U.S. Attorney's Office.
Vincent "Uncle Mick" Delgiudice, 55, pleaded guilty to one count of conspiracy to commit money laundering — which is punishable by up to 20 years in federal prison — and one count of conducting an illegal gambling business — which is punishable by up to five years, the plea states. He may also face a term of supervised release, of no more than three years.
Prosecutors said the multi-million illicit operation took bets on sporting events from as many of 1,000 gamblers on professional and amateur sports including football, basketball and baseball. According to the plea, Delgiudice admitted that from 2016 to 2019 he directed an illegal bookmaking business in Chicago, Lemont, Frankfort, Orland Park and Woodridge. He and his associates accepted wagers on the outcome of the sports, including some collegiate.
U.S. District Judge Virginia M. Kendall did not immediately set a sentencing date, but a status hearing was set for March 8.
Nine other men, including Casey Urlacher, the younger brother of the Chicago Bears Hall of Fame linebacker Brian Urlacher, were accused of running an illegal sports gambling business in February 2020. Urlacher was one of 73 people granted full pardons by former President Donald Trump.
Also charged in the February 2020 indictment were Matthew Knight, 46, of Mokena, also known as "Sweaters" and "McDougal;" Justin Hines, 40, of Algonquin; Keith D. Benson, 49, of Lemont; Todd Blanken, 43, of Cary; Nicholas Stella, 42, of Chicago; Matthew Namoff, 23, of Midlothian; Vasilios Prassas, 37, of Chicago and Eugene "Gino" Delgiudice, 84, who prosecutors say helped collect debts and pay out winnings.
According to a motion filed on Jan. 21, 2021, Stella was released on bond in March 2020, and his bond was revoked, after he violently assaulted his girlfriend at the Crown Plaza Hotel on Jan. 16. His girlfriend, Veronica Michaud, said Stella tried to kill her, attempted to strangle her, hit her in the face, tore her blouse and stole her phone, so she can't call 911, and then dragged her down the hallway before finally releasing her and fleeing, according to the motion.

How does illegal sports betting work and what are the fears?
By Puneet Pal Singh Business Reporter, BBC News, Singapore.
19 February 2013.
Betting and sports have been bedfellows for centuries. But the relations between the two have been deteriorating.
The biggest setback has come from the rise of illegal betting.
The industry has grown not just in terms of revenue, but also in its reach, and there are now fears over its influence on the outcome of sporting events.
The allegations of match-fixing across various sports have once again got sporting bodies and lawmakers across the globe worried and they are trying to find ways to counter the sector's growing might.


Your Super Bowl Squares Pool Is Likely Illegal Even Though Nearly Half The Country Has Legalized Sports Betting.

If you are thinking about hosting a Super Bowl squares pool this weekend, you may wish to think again. Even though the U.S. Supreme Court struck down the Professional and Amateur Sports Protection Act nearly two years ago, it is still illegal in most states for an individual, without a license, to operate a Super Bowl squares pool. In addition, if a Super Bowl squares pool involves participants from multiple states, the pool is likely to violate federal law.
For those who are unfamiliar, Super Bowl squares pools are very popular contests at this time each year. In these contests, fans who are planning to watch the Super Bowl purchase one of 100 boxes from a ten-by-ten matrix. After all 100 boxes are purchased, the horizontal and vertical axes of the matrix are given a random number from 0 to 9, with one axis representing the last digit of the AFC team’s final score and the other representing the last digit of the NFC team’s score. At the end of the Super Bowl, the entrant whose name is listed in the box that matches with the final digits of the final scores for both the NFC and AFC teams wins a prize—generally cash.
While these contests are undoubtedly a fun side activity while watching the Super Bowl, these contests also function as private lotteries, which arguably divert funds from state-sanctioned public lotteries as well as from legally licensed forms of sports betting. As a result, these contests are strongly frowned upon by state gaming commissions.
From the perspective of black-letter law, in most states a contest such as a Super Bowl squares pool (or boxes pool) would be deemed to constitute an illegal lottery if the contest involved three elements: consideration (generally an entry fee), prize and chance. Because Super Bowl squares pools involve randomly assigned numbers rather than numbers chosen by the contest entrants, these pools certainly would be found to be games of chance. Thus, so long as a Super Bowl squares pool includes both an entry fee and a prize, as a technical matter it is illegal for a private individual, without a license, to host a contest of this nature.
Beyond these state law risks, Super Bowl squares pools also may fall on the wrong side of various federal laws. For example, under the Interstate Wire Act of 1961, it is illegal for individuals to engage “in the business of betting or wagering [through the knowing use of] a wire communication for the transmission in interstate or foreign commerce.” Thus, any Super Bowl squares pool that is conducted across state lines and includes at least one state in which the underlying activity is illegal would seem to violate the Wire Act.


Illegal Sports Betting.
Illegal Sports Betting.
Sports betting is a huge industry. Some states have legalized certain activities in recent years, but many online betting sites and activities are still unlawful. To avoid illegal sports betting, you must understand and follow current state and federal laws before making a wager.
Illegal sports betting has real consequences for people who place and receive wagers—and for the safety of the American public.
Organized crime groups often run illegal gambling operations. These groups often use the money made from illegal gambling to fund other criminal activities, like the trafficking of humans, drugs, and weapons. These operations may also be involved in tax evasion and money laundering.
One of the FBI’s priorities is to investigate organized crime groups that operate illegal sports betting operations and disrupt and dismantle their activities.
Besides possibly funding organized crime activities, people who place wagers with illegal sports betting operations may be at risk of extortion and violence, which bookmakers may use to collect debts.
Report Illegal Sports Betting.
To help address this crime, the FBI encourages anyone with information about illegal sports betting operations to submit a tip online or report it to the Internet Crime Complaint Center (IC3). Tips can be kept anonymous.
