As for the incident you refer to concerning weights or the " scales ". There is no evidence of any wongdoing, and an analysis of the data from the state has many discrepencies, such as riders they claimed were riding that were not even there on the days claimed, and also fails to recognize the rules and legal weights both before and after races. The charges were so scurrilous that a grand juror charged Spitzer with grandstanding.
As for claiming horsemen and gamblers have been cheated. When and where? When you make outlandish claims it helps to offer some back-up.

Are you too lazy to read the report from the Attorney Generals office that I attached. Plenty in there about what they did.
