twitterTwo men charged with illegal gambling plead guilty
Wednesday, May 11, 2005 | 9:44 a.m.
Two men charged in federal court with felony gambling offenses have pleaded guilty.
Kevin Flanagan, 41, and John Zaspal, 38, both of Cedar Rapids entered the guilty pleas Monday to one count of illegal gambling. The men were arrested late last year after authorities say they worked at an illegal gambling business involving sports betting and parlay card bookmaking.
The gambling business often brought in more than $2,000 a day, prosecutors said.
Spencer "Al" Lathrop, 65, of Cedar Rapids pleaded guilty Friday to one count of illegal gambling. Jerry Burroughs Jr., 34, of Cedar Rapids pleaded guilty in April.
Also charged with one count of illegal gambling are David Kolsrud and Jerry Burroughs Sr., both of Cedar Rapids, and Paul Hostak, of Hiawatha.
