Chicago Bears wide receiver Sam Hurd has just been arrested for various counts of conspiracy to distribute cocaine and maryjane.
Here is a small excerpt from one of the news articles:
"Hurd told the agent that he was interested in buying 5 to 10 kilograms of cocaine and 1,000 pounds of marijuana each week to distribute in the Chicago area, the complaint said. He said that he and a co-conspirator distributed about four kilos of cocaine every week, but that their supplier could not keep up with his demands, the complaint alleges."
In the "you could have knocked me over with a feather" department, Hurd played 5 seasons with the Dallas Cowboys before joining the Bears.
A key of coke $12K to $35k, MJ $700 to $3,500 a pound depending upon location and purity.
Roughly $20k a kilo for coke x 5 = $100,000
Roughly $2100 a pound for MJ = $2,100,000
Total $2.2 mil
Not too shabby for a bit of work. double or triple the coke price depending upon how you cut it.
