Ippei to plead guilty to bank fraud and filing a false tax return:

And now a new name enters this whole thing...
Ryan Boyajian, 47, was the person listed as "Associate 1" in the indictment against Ippei. Boyajian was the associate of bookmaker Matthew Bowyer who received money from Ippei.
In turn, Boyajian would forward the money directly into front money accounts of his at Resorts World and Pechanga. He would then gamble at high stakes, either losing it all, or cashing out if he won. Bowyer would also gamble with some of this money. It was believed that this was a money laundering operation, where the illegal bookmaking proceeds would then be seen as "clean" funds coming from the casino.
Disgraced former Resorts World CEO Scott Sibella is believed to have looked the other way while Boyajian did this.
