Rozier Faces New Bribery Charge in NBA Case

Federal prosecutors have added a bribery charge to the indictment against former NBA player Terry Rozier, expanding their case against the athlete. Rozier now faces two new charges: bribery in sporting contests and honest services wire fraud conspiracy.

The allegations claim Rozier agreed to receive $100,000 to manipulate his performance during an NBA game. His attorney, Jim Trusty, dismissed the new charges as "just a sad effort to make something stick," maintaining that Rozier's motion to dismiss the original fraud charges should be granted based on a 2023 Supreme Court ruling. afnews.co.za
