Chris Johnson was one of the most entertaining running backs in the NFL about a decade ago. He ran for 2,000 yards back in 2009 and was a stud for the Tennessee Titans. For those who don’t remember, Johnson survived a shooting back in 2015, that left him with a wound in his shoulder. His friend, Dreekius Johnson, ended up passing away in the shooting.

Now, Johnson is being accused of funding a murder-for-hire plot against the two men who allegedly committed the 2015 shooting. According to TMZ, Dominic Bolden killed the two men throughout 2016. In court documents, it has been revealed that Johnson is being accused of paying Bolden to commit the acts. They also allege that Johnson helped Bolden get a higher ranking inside of a Florida-based drug trafficking organization. All of these allegations come from an informant.

Johnson has not been arrested or charged for any of these allegations although it appears as though law enforcement is looking to make a case against him. The former NFL running back is adamant that he is innocent and that there is no base for these accusations.

The United States has officially charged Venezuelan president Nicolás Maduro with Narco-Terrorism, Corruption, and Drug Trafficking offenses, as confirmed by US  Attorney General William Barr. Alongside Maduro, the charges extend to the head of Venezuela's constituent assembly, the former director of military intelligence, a "former high ranking general," and more to be announced shortly. Any information leading to Maduro's arrest will be compensated with a reward of $15 million. 

Despite claiming last March that he would emerge from his federal drug trafficking case unscathed, Ralo (Terrell Davis) is still behind bars. The Feds had been investigating the Atlanta rapper’s criminal dealings for two years before he was arrested at DeKalb-Peachtree airport in April of 2019. His private jet was raided and an estimated $2 million worth of marijuana was found on board. Since then, Ralo has been imprisoned without bond and been fighting his felony charge of conspiracy to distribute marijuana. 

While it’s unclear how this will help Ralo prove his innocence, new legal documents obtained by AllHipHop show that Ralo has requested for the marijuana seized in the 2019 bust to be tested. “Mr. Davis, through counsel, has been asking the United States Attorney’s Office for permission for an independent expert to view, test and examine, the alleged marijuana at issue in the case…” Ralo’s lawyer Brian Steel wrote. “Defendant, Terrell Davis, by and through undersigned counsel and hereby files this Motion to Test, Inspect and Examine the Supposed Marijuana at Issue in the above-referenced case.” The fact that the hundreds of pounds of marijuana have been deemed “high-grade” may have something to do with this review. 

Ralo campaigned for his release by dropping his Free Ralo mixtape in June.

President’s Trump’s infamous border wall design might have been trumped on Wednesday when U.S. Customs and Border Protection announced the discovery of a sophisticated underground passageway connecting Tijuana, Mexico, to San Diego, TX. Stretching for over 4,309 feet — more than 14 football fields — and buried 70 feet below the surface, the tunnel, built for transporting contraband substances, is equipped with an elevator, an intricate rail system, electricity, forced air ventilation and drainage. According to the authorities, it is the longest ever cross-border drug tunnel to be found after a 2,966-foot-long one was unearthed in San Diego in 2014.

Trump’s border wall design, which extends only a few feet below the surface appears ineffective against such deep, subterranean passageways, and mainly helps to keep smaller, crudely-built tunnels, often called “gopher holes,” at bay. More than 200 cross-border tunnels have been discovered near California and Arizona since the department of Customs and Border Protection was formed in 2003.

Following Wednesday’s discovery, John Callery, a DEA special agent issued a statement: “As efforts to strengthen security on our southern border increase, Mexican drug cartels are forced underground to smuggle their deadly drugs into the United States. The sophistication of this tunnel demonstrates the determination and monetary resources of the cartels.” 

No arrests were made or drugs found and although authorities didn’t want to speculate about who they suspected of being behind the tunnel, Mexico’s Sinaloa cartel, known to be one of the largest drug-trafficking organizations in the world, operates in the area. Its founder and long-time leader, Joaquin “El Chapo” Guzman, is serving life in prison in the U.S.
