Chargers | Players under investigation for shoe fraud
Wed, 20 Dec 2006 07:26:15 -0800
Jay Paris, of the North County Times, reports members of the San Diego Chargers are being investigated for potential fraud, after a potential scheme to import imitation athletic shoes from China was reportedly uncovered by the Drug Enforcement Agency, according to a U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement official. DEA officials initially grew suspicious upon learning the players were sending a significant amount of money to China. The DEA suspected it was investigating a steroid-smuggling case. However, the focus changed when the agency speculated the money was for imitation athletic shoes that would be sold as name-brand merchandise in the U.S. Once the steroid angle was removed, the case was transferred to Immigration and Customs Enforcement

It was first broken last Friday, December 15, by the Washington Post. It's probably just to clothe the poor after Kiel has nursed them back to health with his cough syrup. http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn...121502134.html
