DES MOINES, Iowa (KCCI) –  An Iowa DCI agent is being accused of improperly investigating sports wagering by student-athletes. The investigation involves athletes and others associated with athletic programs from the University of Iowa and Iowa State University. KCCI reports an attorney for Eyioma Uwazurike and Isaiah Lee made the accusation in a new filing Monday. The two former Cyclones football players are charged with identity theft and tampering with records related to illegal sports wagering.

In the new filing, Van M. Plumb says Special Agent Brian Sanger conducted a “warrantless search” by placing a GeoFence around certain dorms to investigate underage gambling. Plumb says this was done without any tips to DCI.

The filing also shows the software Sanger used gave him access to see online betting apps that were being used. However, he could not see if bets were actually being made, according to court documents.
