A confidential source reported that those hosting the cockfighting events profited about $80,000 to $90,000 per month.
Almost every Sunday from the start of the year into the summer, dozens of people gathered at a property on Duffy Street in San Bernardino County, authorities said, frequenting an unlicensed bar and a taco stand. But the main attraction was gambling on roosters, which federal prosecutors said were made to fight — sometimes to the death — in an arena while wearing sharp blades known as 'gaffs' on their legs.
Attendees would pay $20 to park at a lot less than a mile from the property and be shuttled to the home on Duffy Street, where they would pay another fee to enter the arena where the fights unfolded, according to Sanders. They were able to place bets on fights and participate in a raffles, with a set of gaffs offered as the prize.
