Title: Freddie Mitchell caught with 7 pounds of marijuana Post by: Pats2006 on February 11, 2009, 04:33:38 pm Ex-Eagles wide receiver Freddie Mitchell is under investigation after accepting a package allegedly containing about 7 pounds of marijuana. According to a story in Florida's Lakeland Ledger, Mitchell was handcuffed, but not arrested, last Thursday after signing for the package at his restaurant, Brothers Bar-B-Q in Lakeland. Police said the package was first delivered to the home of Mitchell's 90-year-old grandmother, who Mitchell said "takes memory pills." She allegedly told the FedEx driver the package wasn't hers and that it was probably for Mitchell. The driver left a phone number for her to give to her grandson. Mitchell, who said he thought it might be supplies, called and had the package forwarded to his restaurant. Lakeland police haven't said what was in the package. But other law enforcement officials told the Ledger that it contained pot, which had been sniffed out by a trained narcotics dog. Police also have not revealed whose name was on the package. But Mitchell's lawyer, John Liguori, said logic dictates that it wasn't addressed to his client. "If Freddie's name were on it," Liguori said, "he'd be sitting in jail." -- Philadelphia Daily News
What they dont say is that the FedEx package was from Ricky Williams! ;D Title: Re: Freddie Mitchell caught with 7 pounds of marijuana Post by: YoFuggedaboutit on February 11, 2009, 06:22:37 pm I'm withholding my opinion on this one. If not him, then someone he knows is obviously involved in something very shady.

So you are convienently forgetting the current trend of drug dealers to ship packages to innocent peoples addressess hoping to intercept the package before the wrong people get it? Did you miss the whole thread about the SWAT team assaulting a home that this very thing happened too and killed the family dogs?
