法院陪审团在周一判决了Eremian和托德里昂的非法赌博罪行。Eremian是美国马萨诸塞州议员代表约翰蒂尔尼的妹夫。

　　Eremian和里昂被指控收受各种非法费用，包括非法经营赌博业务，敲诈勒索等罪行。但Eremian洗钱罪名被判无罪。

　　这些指控涉及到他们非法经营的在线赌博业务。这些业务是由丹尼尔Eremian，托德里昂，和丹尼尔的弟弟罗伯特Eremian共同经营的。目前罗伯特Eremian仍在潜逃。根据检察官调查，他们经营着数百万美元的赌博业务，在美国大约有50个代理商。经他们所清洗的黑钱多达

10000000美元。

　　国会议员约翰蒂尔尼的姐姐承认她是“故意盲目”教唆她的兄弟进行犯罪的，并协助她的兄弟罗伯特Eremian提交虚假的纳税申报。她因此将要在监狱里服刑30天。但是她在审判中作证说她不知道什么赌博业务，她说她以为罗伯特特Eremian经营的是一家软件公司。

　　Congressman’s Brother-in-Law Convicted in Gambling Case

　　The jury reached a verdict on Monday in the case against Daniel Eremian and Todd Lyons, charged with running an illegal gambling operation. Eremian is brother-in-law of Massachusetts U.S. Representative John Tierney.

　　Eremian and Lyons were convicted of various charges, including operating an illegal gambling business, racketeering, racketeering conspiracy, and offenses related to the Wire Act. Eremian was acquitted of money laundering charges.

　　The charges relate to an online gambling operation run in Antigua called Sports Off Shore. The business was run by Daniel Eremian, Todd Lyons, and Daniel’s brother, Robert Eremian, who is still at large. The multimillion-dollar gambling business had approximately 50 agents working in the United States, according to prosecutors. They laundered more than $10 million in checks and wire transfers.

　　Patrice Tierney, the wife of Congressman John Tierney and sister of Robert and Daniel Eremian, pleaded guilty to aiding and abetting Robert Eremian in filing false tax returns. She admitted to being “willfully blind” to the crimes conducted by her brothers. She served 30 days in prison, though she testified during the trial that she did not know about the gambling business. She said that she thought Robert ran a software company.
