because child support is not cheap

My favorite and possibly your actual baby daddy Travis Henry was busted by the popo for trying to buy cocaine. Henry has been on an extended vacation since being cut by the Broncos on June 7th, when Coach Mike Shanahan questioned Henry’s commitment to the team. Well running a drug cartel can be time consuming.

Henry and his friend James Mack had actually been set up by the popo. Seems the pair had been involved in an elaborate drug dealing business that spread to Montana, where a car was pulled over by the popo in September. The car was carrying six pounds of marijuana and three kilograms of cocaine, when a passenger in the car told the authorities he was being paid $5,000 by Henry to transport the $63,600 worth of goods. That same unnamed passenger worked with authorities on the October setup of the former NFL star and his business partner in the Denver suburb of Centennial, CO.

If convicted Henry and Mack could spend life in prison and face a $4 million fine.

Henry had signed a five year, $22.5 million contract in 2007, but lost a chunk of the funds after being cut. With his nine kids to support, a man’s got to do something to pay those child support bills.

Watch out Travis and James, because the popo are on your tail!
