If he placed bets in 2021, which seems to be possible, that’s underage gambling and is breaking the law. Assuming that’s what he is accused of tampering with.I am not condoning what Dekker's did but his attorney is correct, this is a matter for Iowa State and the NCAA. Under Iowa Code there is no law preventing him from placing the bets, the Iowa Code is specific to the gambling entity that they have to have controls in place to prevent such a thing from happening, but not the individual gambler themselves. I've posted the Iowa Code a few times in one of these threads.
Now the tampering with evidence is a no no, but can you really tamper with evidence of something that wasn't illegal?
If he was using his mom's account to place bets while he was underage, it's absolutely illegal.I am not condoning what Dekker's did but his attorney is correct, this is a matter for Iowa State and the NCAA.

Plus using someone else’s account, is illegal.If he was using his mom's account to place bets while he was underage, it's absolutely illegal.
I think that the alleged crime under 715A is that the identity of the person placing the wager was concealed to cover up the wrongdoing (both under 21 wagering and the NCAA violation as mentioned in complaint).I am not condoning what Dekker's did but his attorney is correct, this is a matter for Iowa State and the NCAA.

That's a slap on the wrist, people do proxy betting a lot and get off with a warning oftentimes.Plus using someone else’s account, is illegal.
Everything I've heard from UNI says that they had a couple staffers indicated but no athletes. They were swept at the same time. We'll see if that holds up, but that was the word when all this started to leak.I think that the alleged crime under 715A is that the identity of the person placing the wager was concealed to cover up the wrongdoing (both under 21 wagering and the NCAA violation as mentioned in complaint).
But I will anxiously await the results of the DCI investigation at U of I and UNI and maybe that will shed more light on the issue…
I disagreed, Jeremy may be right, but I don't think they knew details.Why did you say I was wrong that the coaches knew about Dekkers betting on ISU? Jeremy said ISU had an idea he bet on ISU. I never said football.

Well, at least he’s a smart bettor…This will be an interesting thread when it’s publicly confirmed that Dekkers bet against ISU football.
