Matthew Bowyer, 49, pleaded guilty during a hearing on Friday to federal charges of operating an unlawful gambling business, money laundering and subscribing to a false tax return as part of a plea agreement earlier this month, according to US Attorney’s Office for the Central District of California Public Information Officer Ciaran McEvoy.
