Former Canadian Olympic snowboarder charged with running drug trafficking organization, ordering killings
Briefly

"An Olympic athlete-turned-druglord is now charged with leading a transnational organized crime group that engaged in cocaine trafficking and murder, including of innocent civilians," Estrada said.
"He chose to become a major drug trafficker and a killer," U.S. Atty. for the Central District of California Martin Estrada said during a news conference.
Prosecutors alleged that Wedding... ran the drug trafficking organization from 2011 to 2024 along with his second-in-command Andrew Clark. Clark was arrested this month in Mexico.
Prosecutors announced a sprawling superseding indictment Thursday charging Wedding with conspiracy to export cocaine, with running a continuing criminal enterprise, and with three murders in connection with the operation as well as an attempted murder.
