Clark County grand jury indicts man on illegal sports-betting and money-laundering charges

The Nevada Gaming Control Board said Sept. 30, 2026, that a Clark County grand jury indicted William West Roberts on Sept. 29 on charges involving an illegal sports-betting business and money laundering. He was arrested in April 2026 after investigators found he was taking sports wagers through a website based in Costa Rica, the Board said.

An indictment is a charge, not a conviction. The Board said no further details are being released. The same paper covers the Aug. 28, 2026, Ninth Circuit ruling for Nevada on sports-event contracts.
