Florida’s First Gambling Regulator Under Ethics Investigation After Industry Job Move

[MissExposé]

Florida’s inaugural gambling regulator, Louis Trombetta, is facing an ethics investigation after joining a law firm representing gaming clients. Trombetta resigned from the Florida Gaming Control Commission in January and soon after accepted a position with Orlando-based law firm Gunster. The Florida Commission on Ethics is examining whether Trombetta violated post-employment restrictions, which prohibit former public officials from working with entities they once regulated. Trombetta maintains that he complied with all legal requirements. The case is ongoing, with the Ethics Commission expected to review the findings and determine whether any penalties are warranted.
