Wynn Resorts Ltd. unwittingly planned a $1.6 billion Boston-area casino on land linked to organized crime, the U.S. said in charging three men with lying to the company and state gaming regulators about the connection.
The men were arrested today after being indicted by a federal grand jury on charges of hiding financial links between one of the men -- an associate of the New England Family of La Cosa Nostra criminal group -- and land being sold to Wynn Resorts, federal and state prosecutors in Boston said in a statement.
