A shocking report has surfaced, alleging that donations from NBA legends Shaquille O’Neal and Draymond Green were embezzled by a Crips gang leader, Eugene “Big U” Henley Jr. The Los Angeles Times has revealed a web of accusations against Henley, including murder, kidnapping, robbery, extortion, and fraud.
According to the report, Henley, a leader of the Rollin’ 60s set of the Crips, allegedly embezzled over $100,000 in donations from his non-profit organization, Developing Options. The non-profit had received donations from O’Neal and Green, totaling $20,000, which were allegedly transferred to Henley’s personal checking account.
The allegations against Henley are staggering. He is accused of murdering a musician who had recorded a song that Henley deemed defamatory. Additionally, Henley allegedly orchestrated a scheme to extort money from a professional boxer who had cheated NBA players out of millions of dollars in a rigged dice game.
The report also suggests that Henley’s influence extended to the sports world, with NBA players and celebrities allegedly paying him for protection and approval to attend parties and events. A cooperating witness claims that Henley’s organization, Big U Enterprise, would retaliate against those who did not comply with their demands.
Henley, 58, faces serious charges, including RICO and murder, which carry penalties of up to 20 years in prison and life imprisonment, respectively. The allegations against him have sent shockwaves through the sports world, highlighting the darker side of the intersection between sports and organized crime.
As the investigation unfolds, the sports community is left reeling from the allegations. The involvement of NBA legends like Shaquille O’Neal and Draymond Green, albeit unwittingly, has raised questions about the vulnerability of charitable donations to exploitation by criminal organizations.
The case serves as a stark reminder of the importance of transparency and accountability in charitable giving. As the authorities continue to investigate Henley’s activities, the sports world will be watching closely to see how this shocking case unfolds.
