It’s terribly unlikely he’ll have assets to satisfy the complaint,” wrongful death attorney Roger Orlando told the Atlanta Journal-Constitution by phone Friday morning. “There are four beautiful children that need help. If we can recover anything, it will help those children.”

 

 

 

TMZ reported:

 

 

Disgraced NBA player Javaris Crittenton was part of a MASSIVE drug ring — that was hoping to move 400 KILOS of cocaine and 10 POUNDS of weed … this according to legal docs obtained by TMZ Sports

 

 

We broke the story … the former Washington Wizards player was arrested in Atlanta last week during a sting operation that netted 20 suspects … some with stereotypical drug cartel nicknames like "Crutch," "Chop" and "Carlito."

 

 

FYI — 400 kilos is roughly 881 pounds. That's A LOT of blow. 

 

 

Officials say the drug ring has been operating since at least 2012.
