Another Plea Deal for Testimony Against Tocchet

Rick Hepp of the Star-Ledger is reporting that another plea deal is in the works in exchange for testimony against Rick Tocchet:

An accomplice in a multimillion-dollar betting ring that catered to professional hockey players will plead guilty tomorrow in a deal that guarantees his cooperation against one of the ring’s alleged leaders, NHL coach Rick Tocchet, according to law enforcement officials.

James Ulmer, who took bets for the ring, will plead guilty in state Superior Court to promoting gambling and conspiracy with the expectation he will serve up to 364 days in county jail, said one of the officials, who spoke on condition of anonymity because the case is ongoing.
