Well lookie lookie - Patriots star Patrick Chung indicted in New Hampshire on cocaine

possession charge

https://www.wcvb.com/article/patriots-star-patrick-chung-indicted-in-new-hampshire-on-cocaine-possession-charge/28785929
<snip>
It wasn't immediately known if Chung has an attorney who can speak on his behalf. The court file doesn't list one.

Possession of cocaine is a Class B felony and carries a fine of up to $2,000 and a potential prison term of up to seven years.

The Laconia Sun reports town records show that Chung owns a lakeside residence in Meredith.

"We are aware of the reports regarding Patrick Chung," the New England Patriots said in a statement. "We will not be commenting while his judicial proceedings take place."

The starting strong safety, who’s been wearing a red non-contact jersey in practice, has been recovering from offseason shoulder surgery.

I mean, I want the Pat's to lose always, so ... I'm happy ... but I don't imagine the team is real happy to potentially have their starting safety suspended.

Other than when injured he's been the Pats starting safety for 8 of the past 10 years, right?

Or are you still mad at him over the 2010 playoff game against the Jets when he called for the punt to be snapped to him, and got tackled for a loss ... and the Jets scored a quick TD, and the Pats eventually lost?

Cuz that was great, lol ...

in the 80s and 90s and cocaine was a big part of it - Jim Brown et al.
By the way a big track and field scandal is coming for the US any day now

What's the point of this post? You're against 7-year prison sentences for possession? You're angry that a successful person of color is being publicly shamed for drug use? You're happy that a person of color put in the work required to purchase a lakeside residence?

Nah, probably just a "guilt by association", anti-Kraft/New England Patriot shit-post.

So he did Pats-Eagles-Pats.

He's never been great been he's been pretty solid (for them at least), though had a lot of dings over his career that kept him out of games. One of the Super Bowls I remember him getting his arm busted early on ...

"Patrick Chung’s home in Meredith had an alarm tripped for a B&E. Police show up to check on the home, have probable cause to enter the home, and ultimately end up finding cocaine, leading to the investigation and indictment."

When asked for a booking photo, Meredith Police Chief Kevin Morrow said Chung "was not arrested and there is no photo to provide."
