According to the facts presented in court, Lewis was put in a holding cell after his arrest, and he admitted to the other occupant that he deliberately solicited a yellow card “to earn a little bit of coin”.

According to the facts presented in court, Lewis was put in a holding cell after his arrest, and he admitted to the other occupant that he deliberately solicited a yellow card “to earn a little bit of coin”.
The conversation was recorded with a surveillance device, the court was told.
Lewis was recruited for the scheme because he was a known gambler and was seen as “influenceable”.
The court was told there was no evidence Lewis or Baccus had any involvement in placing the bets but they were paid by Davila after match.
