Douchebag couldn't pay $25,000
Sharper was gambling on football and baseball according to testimony from Blythe. He gambled through a business owner Licciardi knew but when he started placing high-stakes wagers he was referred to a group of California-based "Russians."
According to the testimony, Sharper lost $25,000 and didn't pay; the bookie warned Licciardi about future repercussions.
"They'll get your address and they will come kill you," the bookie said he warned Licciardi.
