Attorneys File Motion to Suppress Evidence in Iowa State Gambling Case over Legality

Attorneys representing four current or former Iowa State athletes charged with identify theft and tampering with records within the state's student-athlete illegal gambling investigation have filed a motion to suppress all evidence used against them, claiming it was gathered via an "illegal search and seizure."

Per ESPN's Adam Rittenberg, the athletes involved in the motion are current ISU wrestler Paniro Johnson and ex-ISU football players Eyioma Uwazurike, Isaiah Lee and Jirehl Brock.

Their attorneys are accusing Iowa's Division of Criminal investigations of "misrepresenting the nature of its investigation and violating the terms of use for a software program used to capture online wagering inside Iowa State's athletic facilities," per Rittenberg.
