Mafia Allegedly Used Jenner's Former NYC Townhouse

News summary

Federal prosecutors say the six‑story Greenwich Village townhouse at 80 Washington Place — once rented by Kylie Jenner and Travis Scott and featured on The Kardashians — was one of two New York City locations used for alleged mafia‑run, high‑stakes poker games that swindled players out of millions. Court filings allege the scheme, running at least from 2019 through 2023, involved four Manhattan crime families using hidden rigged shufflers and X‑ray tables and enlisting former NBA figures as “face cards” to attract high‑rollers. Authorities say the operation turned violent in fall 2023 when rival factions clashed and armed men raided the townhouse. The indictment unsealed this week charges 34 defendants across two related fraud matters and includes arrests of NBA‑linked figures such as Chauncey Billups and Terry Rozier; Jenner and Scott are not named or accused of wrongdoing. The property, described as six bedrooms and eight bathrooms, sold in 2024 for roughly $17–20 million, and prosecutors and reporting note the home’s celebrity past is a factual detail in the probe, not evidence of involvement.
