Felicia "Snoop" Pearson, 30, is among 64 people charged in a joint state-federal prosecution of a large east Baltimore drug gang. She is charged in state court with conspiring with two men to distribute heroin and aiding and abetting.

The indictment states that since 2008, members of the conspiracy bought heroin from New York and marijuana from California and sold the drugs on the streets of Baltimore neighborhoods. As part of the conspiracy, the indictment alleges that members discussed who failed to perform required tasks were dealt with violently.

Officers seized $69,000, four guns, marijuana and heroin in "Operation Usual Suspects," which built on hundreds of hours of investigation dating back to 2008, Commissioner Frederick Bealefeld said.

Well you're getting decent royalty money from HBO, your book sold decently, you're well known..

I remember seeing an interview where she was planning on a bunch of business ventures - from music, film, sex toys, clothing line, etc. Maybe she blew her money on all those things failing (I don't remember hearing anything about them) and went back to what she knew best.

I was amused when checking out the HuffPo story, and all of the comments were "OMG, MARIJUANA SHOULD NOT BE ILLEGAL, SO MUCH INJUSTICE, THIS IS BULLSHIT"

completely ignoring that it was also a heroin investigation.
