5Dimes Owner William Sean Creighton Found Dead in Costa Rica

William Sean Creighton, the founder of online sportsbook 5Dimes, was found dead in Costa Rica. The cause of death has not been confirmed. Creighton, who was born in West Virginia, moved to Costa Rica and founded 5Dimes in 1999.
“We can confirm Costa Rican authorities identified the remains of a U.S. citizen in Costa Rica. We offer our sincerest condolences to the family on their loss. We are closely monitoring local authorities’ investigation into the cause of death,” a United States State Department spokesperson said.
Costa Rican officials said that Creighton was abducted last September and that his family received a $5 million ransom demand. Officials arrested 12 people in connection with his abduction in both Costa Rica and Spain in January. His body was found nearly three hours from where he was initially abducted.
