Body Of 'Tony' From 5Dimes Found

For the past few months, I have finished off nearly all of the posts covering the 5Dimes Sportsbook's WWE betting markets with a link to a story about the company's founder - William Sean Creighton (AKA 'Tony')  - who was kidnapped in Costa Rica a year ago and had been missing ever since.

I did so as I thought it would be best to be straight up with current and potential customers about the situation.

This situation has had a development over the past few days.

Earlier this week, I read a report that Creighton's body had been found buried in a cemetery in the city of Quepos in Costa Rica. Just like when I first began to read into the story about Tony's disappearance, I didn't know how genuine - or accurate - the reports were as I was going by a Spanish written articles from sources I didn't know at all. This was not the first time in the past few months that I had read about a body being found only for the report to be false. Therefore, I waited for the mainstream to report on it.

News sites like ESPN have now ran with the latest story and the reporters were given confirmation from the US State Department that Costa Rican authorities confirmed with them that the body found in Quepos was that of the missing sportsbook owner.

The ESPN article shared the following statement from the department:

'We can confirm Costa Rican authorities identified the remains of a US citizen in Costa Rica.. We offer our sincerest condolences to the family on their loss. We are closely monitoring local authorities' investigation into the cause of death. We stand ready to provide all consular assistance. Out of respect to the family during this difficult time, we have no further comment'.

The article goes on to note that a Homeland Security investigation into alleged money laundering by 5Dimes - which began in 2016 - is still open.
