I got a voicemail tonight from a San Antonio friend telling me that Richard Lee had been arrested. Actually he was not arrested, but WAOI reports that vice police were searching Lee's pricey Shavano Park home this evening for evidence that he was "running an illegal gambling ring." Police reportedly have the authority to seize everything, including his cars.
A little sad. I liked Richard. He was one of the good guys sporting his San Antonio sweatshirt instead of selling his soul to Bodog or PokerStars. I smiled as he talked during his press conference about how all he cared about was God, family, and San Antonio, Texas...corny I know...but after living in San Antonio for six years, he made me miss the S.A. pride.
UPDATE: The San Antonio Express-News reports police seized a money-counting machine, five Lexus cars, plasma-screen TVs along with a large amount of cash.
