It’s been a difficult week for two former college football stars, Bruce Nelson of the Iowa Hawkeyes and Brock Galvin of the Iowa State Cyclones. The two have been charged in a gambling investigation that has rocked the college football world.
Nelson, a former defensive lineman for the Hawkeyes, and Galvin, a former quarterback for the Cyclones, are accused of taking part in an illegal gambling ring. The investigation is being conducted by the Iowa Department of Public Safety and involves several other people.
The charges against Nelson and Galvin include conspiracy to commit a felony, promoting gambling, and possession of gambling records. If convicted, they could face up to five years in prison and a $7,500 fine.
The investigation began when authorities received a tip that the two were involved in an illegal gambling operation. After a thorough investigation, authorities were able to uncover evidence that the two had been taking part in the operation.
This is not the first time that Nelson and Galvin have been in trouble with the law. In 2011, Nelson was arrested for driving under the influence and Galvin was arrested for disorderly conduct.
The news of the investigation has sent shockwaves throughout the college football world. Both Nelson and Galvin were highly regarded players at their respective schools and had promising futures ahead of them.
It remains to be seen what will happen to Nelson and Galvin as the investigation continues. It is likely that they will face some sort of punishment if they are found guilty of the charges against them.
No matter what happens, this is a sad situation for everyone involved. It serves as a reminder that no one is above the law and that illegal activities should not be taken lightly.
