and wtf is wrong with the defense attorney//

""Two undercover officers handed money to each other, and that's supposed to constitute knowing betting was going on at a track," defense attorney Burt Springer said. "It seems to me that they're charging the Swiss Guard with something the Pope did."

What a d-bag to be making comments like this.. (I am not a catholic and I am not affiliated to any religion)

Next, go to any college or NFL football game and arrest the cops because people in the stands are betting on the game.

THere must be a 100 of these every weekend in Texas. I'm suprised they actually go out of their way to bust them.
It's all Quarter Horses and match races, sometimes you'll see three horse races. Lot of the same horses will also race at proper tracks, like Lone Star, Remington, Retama.
