ok to sort of wrap this story up..still don't know some details but the update is
apparently the boyfriend did some bookmaking years ago..and is also related to some local mob guy. The cops got a tip that he was involved in it again, went to his job site and told him they had a warrant to search his house ...they told him they could go through the entire house and trash it or he could come clean with his gambling activities...he decided to "tell the truth" to them so there would be no trouble and told the cops that he did gamble , online, NFL stuff on some website but that he was definitely not a bookie nor taking bets of any kind..he even showed them the website and papers he keeps logging in spreads, his wins and losses etc...they believed him apparently but did ask if he had cash on the premises and he told them he had the $1700 mortgage money..they took that (gave him $50 of it to keep) and he did sign something receipt like..and they gave him a summons for court today..he went with a lawyer and pleaded not guilty (she didn't know what the actual crime was he was being charged with) they let him off with a $93 court cost and no probation, nothing..though he did not and will not get his $1700 back..
thats about all I know ..weird...especially the takng his money part...apparently he told them he had the $1700 since they were thinking he had major cash in the house from bookmakng, never thinking they would take it from him...
