The NSW Royal Commission into Drug Trafficking uncovered numerous instances of individuals linked to the illegal drug trade reporting suspiciously high gambling winnings. These "punters," including Robert Trimbole and several associates, claimed substantial profits from horse racing and other gambling, raising concerns about money laundering. The commission investigated these claims, finding inconsistencies and improbable betting patterns suggesting the reported wins were a means of concealing illicit funds. Testimony revealed elaborate schemes, including purchasing winning tickets from other punters, to obscure the origin of the money. The sheer volume of seemingly successful bets by these individuals, coupled with their inability to provide verifiable details about their wagers, led investigators to conclude that the gambling winnings were likely a cover for illegal activities.
