Dresser talks gambling investigation

[Turn2]

Problem is that this goes all the way to the top with both the Governor and AG both saying this was OK with them.

Makes you wonder where we'd be today with an experienced AG like we used to have.

Did they just say that or did they say that when it was originally going down? Big difference there. Did she know at the time that is was done illegal? If she did, then she should be held accountable also. I'm guessing that she didn't know all the screw ups that the DCI had done if very few others appear to have known.

But Brands is too optimistic. All Iowa media is too lightweight to do that job.

It’s a good reminder of the importance of strong independent local media. Which sadly is dying off.

Can’t believe I’m saying this but terrific stuff from Dresser AND Brands. Both Cyclone and Hawkeye athletes were treated horribly and punitively by people in power who know better. These anthletes all need to lawyer up with first rate specialists with experience and demonstrated success (trial wins with large damage awards) in suing governmental entities. Interview multiple lawyers to make sure you get the right one. But don’t wait— there are statutes of limitation that are ticking.

Hmmmm.....Not a Brands fan here but he does bring up a good point. Meanwhile all Iowa Media people are focused on Queen Caitlin and who's going to be the next OC for Iowa.

First ever correct statement to ever come out of IC.

Has Brands said anything publicly since the release of the legal motions this week for Enyi and Paniro? Seems that his athletes have lawyers interested in the depositions of the same DCI agents.

So he’s upset with the media for not getting this fixed? wtf?

He’s upset with the media for not investigating. All they did was copy and paste the press releases from the cops that we know are notorious liars. Brands is spot on.

 

[Cycsk]

I tend to agree with Brands. It seems that investigative reporters could have learned a lot since Brands/Dresser first challenged them back in November.

Brands interview doesn’t answer the question.

Brands interview doesn’t answer the question.

Brands is questioning why the media didn’t demand answers.

Yeah, I know, but you said the answers to when people knew were in there.

I can’t wait for Iowa’s esteemed reporters to report more on Kim Reynolds’s thoughts on Trump, Desantis, more Trump, more Trump, and Desantis. Iowa media getting what matters most to Iowans

I'm not smart enough to know what any of this means, or if it's good for the athletes or not.

To me it lays out how the DCI ****** up royally.

It is very good if it is granted. Further emphasizes and brings to light more wrongdoing by the DCI.

Who on here thinks the DCI will settle this in hopes it isn’t investigated further. Their supervisors will want it shut down.

Yep the DCI wants this to go away. We will pay for it. And mister I want to make a name for myself will still be in law enforcement somewhere overstepping boundaries
