Could this be a case of making someone pay for what they didn't eat or a case of double standard.
Bet as you can sustain and not allow your emotions have a better part of you.
These sort of frauds are happening all day and every day around the world, there is little surprising about it. I do wonder though if one of them was more guilty than the other, who may have been roped in to try and cover up the crime, that is the person I might feel sorry for in this situation. A mother would likely try to protect her son like that. However people that get sucked in and hooked at the depths of gambling addiction will often drag their family in when they have spent all their money. While I feel bad for people who have got themselves into such terrible and depressing situations, they ultimately took themselves down this path and should have extracted themselves early on once they started to see endless losses on their accounts - if you're constantly depositing, you're not winning.
