Follower on Mizzou plane pleads guilty in drug case
A Missouri guys's basketball supporter that over four periods on a regular basis took a trip with the team to NCAA event games has pleaded guilty to a federal medicine conspiracy including drug and cannabis circulation in Columbia.
Online court records show Levi McLean Franklin Coolley pleaded guilty Jan. 17 to two felony matters of trying to sell greater than 88 pounds of drug and an undefined quantity of marijuana between 2005 and 2011, as well as one count of cash washing.
Coolley, which has a vehicle stereo business in Columbia, was apprehended by FBI representatives in March 2012 while at the Missouri group lodging in Omaha, Neb., hrs before the Tigers' second-round loss to Norfolk State in the NCAA tournament.
A review by Missouri found no inappropriate impact by Coolley. He was on group flights as a guest of Columbia real property developer and famous Missouri contributor Jay Linder and received complimentary tickets from gamers at 9 games in the 2008-09 and 2009-10 seasons. The hookup was first reported by the Columbia Daily Tribune, which got air travel manifests from the university under state open documents regulations.
Like other Division I programs, Missouri allows significant contributors to acquire vacant seats on team aircrafts when taking a trip to large activities, such as tournaments and championship game.
A spokesman for U.S. Lawyer Tammy Dickinson in Kansas City claimed the criminal case against Coolley did not entail Missouri sports.

A total amount of 16 folks were charged in the federal investigation, with almost one accused, a Kansas City guy, providing main Missouri addresses in court records. Like Coolley, many have given that pleaded guilty.
Coolley's appeal deal needs him to waive $54,400 that he supposedly made from drug sales and funneled into his vehicle stereo business. He deals with a minimum 10-year jail sentence. A sentencing hearing is not yet set up.
