The exact reason for the charge is being reported as casino debt. According to Morris Sr.’s agent, Yony Noy, it isn’t a fraud charge at all, just unpaid debt to the casino that is valued over $1,200.

As of this morning, Morris Sr. was being held at the Broward County Main Jail as he awaits extradition.
