Gambling addiction led to murder

Submitted by Vani Fri 04/10/2009

Though gambling addiction and troubles associated with gambling commonly led to murder or a crime of some sort in the movies, it still is quite disturbing to hear that it has happened real life. When Jason Hadeed, a reputable coach, invested some of his money to finance the gambling of Michael Adams, it seemed too good to be true at first. Adams would give back to Hadeed and his other investors not only the capital they loaned him but also a good sum of earnings for every win.

But fate would have it that Adams would run into a losing streak and became unable to pay his investors. Hadeed and the others were very angry but Adams was in hiding for a period of time, avoiding them. One night, Hadeed went over to Adams’ place. It ended up with Hadeed dead. Adams has lost control of his addiction and the money entrusted to him. He was in trouble too deep.
