Before I get to the arrest, I would love to ask Mr. Carter why he was gambling at Texas Station? Out of all the casinos in Vegas, that is the last one I would expect to find a NFL player cheating at craps.
Anyways, from the Post:
Carter, 24, was arrested late Saturday at the Texas Station casino in North Las Vegas. Security officials reported he was videotaped adding a $5 chip to three bets after the dice already rolled, according to a police report. Carter denied wrongdoing when police arrived.
Carter faces three counts of committing a fraudulent act in a gaming establishment, a felony in Nevada that carries a possible sentence of one to six years in prison and a $10,000 fine. He provided a North Las Vegas address when he was booked at the Clark County jail in Las Vegas and released with a Monday court date.
The Broncos are aware of the matter and are investigating the situation. Carter seems confident that he will beat the rap.

What the hell was he thinking? Anyone in their right mind knows that you're not gonna cheat the casino, because eventually you'll get caught. Besides, Carter should have a six-figure income and shouldn't have to worry on trying to get over on the house.
I think Carter will get away with a light penalty in this case, but he should learn from his actions.
