Sports gambler accused of sending threatening messages to scores of athletes.
The defendant used Instagram direct messages to send nasty notes to baseball, football and basketball players and even one women's soccer player in 2019, according to a complaint written by FBI Special Agent Daniel Nowak.
In the 20-page affidavit, Nowak used initials and team names to identify targeted athletes — but in virtually every instance, the letters matched with just one player on the squads mentioned. For example, Patz alleged lost his cool, and $10,000, betting on Los Angeles in the Feb. 3, 2019 Super Bowl,"ILL RAPE AND MURDER YOUR ENTIRE FAMILY," the defendant said via Instagram messenger to a victim that Nowak identified as"J.E., a professional football player for the New England Patriots."
Patz also raged,"I WILL BRUTALLY RAPE AND MURDER YOUR FAMILY" and"I WILL ENTER YOUR HOME WHILE YOU SLEEP AND SEVER YOUR NECK OPEN WITH A DULL KNIFE" at someone Nowak identified as"R.G., a professional football player for the New England Patriots."Sign Up
