Hartford Host Arraigned In Gambling Case

Sebastian

Veteran HARTFORD radio personality SEBASTIAN has been arraigned in CONNECTICUT Superior Court on gambling charges. SEBASTIAN (real name JOSEPH SCHLOSSER) faces criminal charges of gambling and transmitting gambling information after a state investigation of sports gambling in HARTFORD and is scheduled to appear on TUESDAY (1/4) in Superior Court in NEW BRITAIN.

The HARTFORD COURANT reports that SEBASTIAN told detectives in the case that he paid over $350,000 in gambling losses over two years. He was arrested on NOVEMBER 17th; the man identified by case files as the alleged bookie, PAUL GRAZIANO, has yet to be charged, and a state policeman told the COURANT only that an investigation is continuing.

SEBASTIAN, well-known for his long stint in mornings at Rock WCCC-F, has most recently hosted NEW ENGLAND PATRIOTS pre-game shows with former NFL player TEBUCKY JONES on CBS RADIO Talk WTIC-A/HARTFORD.
