Keene (NH) Sentinel with more yesterday on the Hinsdale case and duplicious Joe Sullivan. Easy to read between the lines at a disgusting act of fraud that is likely to go unpunished.
Bettors watch debtor Pursuit of Hinsdale racing funds continues By PHILLIP BANTZ Sentinel Staff Published: Sunday, March 22, 2009 http://keenesentinel.com/articles/20.../id_348581.txt Betting is Herschel Bird’s business. The Nevada resident has etched out a comfortable living beating the odds. Not much slips past this guru among horse racing aficionados. But if you told Bird four months ago that the five-decades-old Hinsdale Greyhound Racing Association was on the verge of sinking and taking his six-figure wagering account along for the ride, he wouldn’t have believed it. “Ironically, I felt very loyal to that track. I dealt with them for five years,” Bird said in a recent phone interview. “Even after they lost their competitive edge and there were better rates available elsewhere, I kept my money there. I was doing less business, but I still stayed.”
