The D.C. attorney general’s office is investigating the District’s lottery and sports gambling contract, according to two sources with knowledge of the probe.
D.C. awarded the contract to Intralot in 2019 to build the city’s first sports betting app, which was widely panned, failed to meet revenue projections for the District and was replaced this year by FanDuel and other third-party apps.
Attorney General Brian Schwalb’s office requested information related to the contract from Intralot back in summer 2023, one of the sources said. Both asked for anonymity because they weren’t authorized to discuss the investigation.
Schwalb’s office can bring civil cases against companies.
