As the Kardashians continue to deal with the tragic effects of addiction, RadarOnline.com has learned that Kendall Jenner's new boyfriend, D'Angelo Russell, is hiding a drug secret!
His dad, Antonio Russell, has a history of arrests involving codeine, marijuana, and even drug trafficking charges.
According to WHAS11, a news outlet in Louisville, Kentucky, area, the NBA star's dad Antonio, 40, was arrested in Louisville, Kentucky this past August after being puled over for not wearing a seatbelt.
During the stop, cops found a water bottle filled with a suspicious red liquid that was later identified as codeine, WHAS said. The network also claimed the recent NBA draftee's dad also admitted to cops that there was marijuana in his car too.
The older Russell was eventually charged with "possession of a controlled substance, tampering with physical evidence and having marijuana," WHAS11 previously reported. The case is ongoing.
But this isn't the only time Antonio has had a run-in with the law. According to the Kentucky Department of Corrections, the basketball dad is on probation until 2016 thanks to a history of drug charges.
There are at least seven offenses on record.
According to online state records, one February 2010 arrest for speeding led to convictions for possession of marijuana, evading the police, and trafficking a controlled sentence. Records show he was sentenced to 18 months in prison.
Then in March 2011, he was convicted on a series of charges from 2007 including felony possession of drug paraphernalia, possession of marijuana, and trafficking a controlled sentence, again, for which he was sentenced to even more prison time, according to the Kentucky Corrections records.
He was charged and sentenced for possession of marijuana and drug paraphernalia, drug trafficking and fleeing/evading police (1st degree motor vehicle), according to the site.
