NFL agent Dante DiTrapano, whose one and only client is Raiders receiver Randy Moss, was arrested in St. Petersburg, Florida on Tuesday for possession of crack cocaine.

Both DiTrapano and his wife face the charges. Three other persons were arrested at the same time, and are charged with possession of crack cocaine and a variety of other offenses.

DiTrapano had rented three rooms at the St. Petersburg Hilton for a one-night stay. Per the police department's web site, he "created a disturbance at his room, prompting the management to call the police, and officers located the illegal drugs when they arrived at the rooms to investigate the call."

We don't know what the hell to make of this one. DiTrapano is a lawyer in Charleston, West Virginia, and we've spoken to him a couple of times in the past. A year ago, we told him that the Vikings were close to trading Moss to the Raiders, and he basically said we were nuts.

In hindsight, maybe he just thought we were on crack.

Funny.

To me this is kind of a "non-story"...but you know everybody wants to make a connection to Randy Moss and cocaine. :rolleyes:
 
Yeah, I agree...

Raiders star+drugs=story, classic formula.
 
WHAT?! You mean they're still looking? Ridiculous. Dude's a druggie. He's admitted it. Sports "reporters" look the other way because he's talented and generally open to the media.
 
Here is what Moss thinks...

Charged with third degree felony ...

Bill Proffitt -- spokesman for the St. Petersburg Police Department -- says Louis Dante DiTrapano and his wife Teri were arrested yesterday after a party in their Hilton hotel rooms.

Police found 19 grams of powder cocaine and 73 rocks of crack. Three other people were also arrested -- they are described as local residents. The DiTrapanos were jailed on charges of possession of an illegal substance. A $5000 dollar bond was set. But as of 5:10 Wednesday evening they were still in the Pinellas County jail.

Ditrapano's law firm released the following statement:

"We were saddened to learn today that our colleague, Dante DiTrapano, was arrested for possession of an illegal substance. Dante has been battling depression over two tragedies that occurred this past year. We don't know the facts of his arrest at this point, but we hope and pray that Dante will now get the help he needs."

Randy Moss also released a statement saying, "Virtually everyone has a loved one, a family member or close friend, who finds himself or herself in trouble and needs help. You've got to support a friend who needs help and so I'm sticking by my friend and I'll support him and his family as he gets help battling his problem."

Nothing official has been said about DiTrapano's law license, but West Virginia State Bar rules would indicate anyone who's been convicted of a major felony would lose his or her license.
 
To me this is a non story. the media is making a big deal about it and the story won't die. But really I don't see what Randy has to do with it although the media writes articles with all sorts of innuendo. Just my 2¢.
