No thread on Chris Perez accepting a shipment of weed???

[babylon1]

Now a drug story of the non-performance-enhancing ilk: Cleveland Indians closer Chris Perez is under investigation after authorities seized a package of marijuana allegedly mailed to his rental home in Rocky River, Ohio.

At a Wednesday afternoon press conference, some of which you can see via Cleveland TV station WKYC, Rocky River Police Chief Kelly Stillman described a multi-agency bust at the rental home of Perez and his wife.

Local police, U.S. postal inspectors, and a narcotics unit searched the home Tuesday, after the package was delivered Monday. Radio station WTAM reports a "significant amount" of marijuana was seized. Charges have not been filed against Perez, but that doesn't mean they won't eventually.

Cleveland Indians closer Chris Perez and has wife have been charged with misdemeanor drug possession in the shipment of just over one-third of a pound of marijuana mailed to their home, authorities said Friday.

Complaints were served on the two on Thursday and will be filed Friday in municipal court, police in suburban Rocky River said.

Perez and his wife, Melanie, were released on personal bond, police said. A message was left with his attorney Friday; the player and the lawyer haven't responded to previous requests for comment.

A message seeking comment was left Friday with the team. Team officials earlier said they were watching the situation.

Dan Chaplin, a Cleveland defense attorney not connected with the case, compared the charge to a traffic ticket and said a conviction likely would be punished with a fine.

Drug agents with a search warrant went to the couple's rental home on Tuesday, apparently tipped off by postal workers suspicious of a package mailed there.

Perez has six saves this season but is on the disabled list with an injured right shoulder. The right-hander started throwing again this week.

Perez, an often-polarizing figure, and Cleveland fans have gotten on each other's nerves over the past couple of years. He recently deactivated his Twitter account after criticism from fans following a couple of bad outings.

In previous seasons, Perez has lashed out at fans for not coming to games, and at owners for not spending money on free agents.
